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?
@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!
@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

Do we reply here or??
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.

The 3DS version was the only one I played. For a 100% sidescroller, it was a decent game. The soundtrack was phenomenal, and the nostalgia effect was at a semi-maximum level. I never played the home-console version, so I can't say anything about that version.

Not really. It was short, the required-mini-games weren't fun, and the story wasn't all that great. It's not a surprise that it was nominated. It is a surprise it's in the top 5.

But it's not BAD. If anything, the levels themselves make the game a masterpiece.

Yea-no. According to IGN, a masterpiece is a 10.0. IGN has only given about 3 games a perfect ten ever since it was established. Damn!

Reviewers rarely EVER give ANYTHING perfect scores. The belief is there is nothing that will ever be perfect.

I can't say for everyone, but personally I don't believe looks can make a game. I know plenty of Games that look nice but gameplay and story ruin the game. Generation had nice levels, but that doesn't make it a good game.

Sonic Unleashed?!

But the Werehog can't be THAT bad. Hell, Rooftop Run alone should make it worth it.

Could you post the amount of votes each entry received? I'm curious to see both how large the winning margins were and the amount of people are participating.

I'm not even sure why the Sonic 1 chaos emeralds were even eligible, considering they're not really powerups. :P
