on*

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 10:10 PM)

Red said he couldnt get one

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM)

Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

One thing i wanna know is this: How the hell does Eggman get the metal for all of his creations?? I mean just looking at it he must own like every single metal plant in the world. Anyone have any theories??
Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

I got one. Sonic actually doesn't spend all that much time in the cities during the game. I figure Eggman just blows one up and takes the scraps for parts.

Eggman probably recycles his tools and machines.

Think about it. Would you want to take over a polluted world? (You're a jerk if you mention SatAM Robotnik)

Eggman is the head of several major industries, including Robotnik Corp. and Eggman Enterprises. Maybe that's where he gets all his funding and materials.

Eggman is a rejected Megaman villian. He stole all the metal from Dr Wiley.

I always figured that he either mined for all the metal or simply recycled some of his robots that Sonic destroyed. Though most likely, since the Sonic series is comprised of video games (among other things), there is no logical answer. It's the same as asking when he and Dr. Wily have time to build all of their robots, or how do bosses get through their trap-filled lairs when there's no easy way through?

Already controled several factories, refineries and cities...I think is the answer you are looking for.

If we take for example places like Oil ocean zone (a big resource of oil for the robots), Chemical Plant or Scap Brain Zone, Metropolis Zone, Sky fortress (factories really big) I think yes...he can get a lot. The idea of recycling broken robots is another possibility, like he did on SA 1, recycling the useless gammas, why not broken robots?

Technically though Sonic defeats Eggman/Robotnik/Guy-who-looks-like-cartoon-Teddy-Roosevelt in each game (oops, Spoilers), never does it say he's completely beat him. He probably has a main base of Operations that supplies him.

I never thought about that. It would make sense. And seeing how just about every level in the early games usually has Sonic racing through some place that Robotnik completely controls, Robotnik probably owns a vast part of the planet so he never has to worry about running out of resources. Also, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he had robots build some of his fighting robots.

I don't think you can clone raw minerals and machinery.

I suspect that Mobius, like Earth, is rich in iron, and that it is also bigger than Earth. Notice that Sonic and co. are meant to be quite short and some incarnations of Robotnik himself are quite short. Maybe that's evidence for a 'big Mobius' theory because the greater gravitational pull of a bigger planet is keeping everyone shorter.

Either that or Robotnik makes his robots with chassis full of holes so that they're more lightweight but also use less metal. And because he generally tries to fight Sonic with a large quantity of robots rather than good quality ones.
