you know you've been playing too much Uplink when...

Me? Yeah, half a year ago it was EV Nova, asking questions, now I'm done asking questions there.

Moderators are here all the time :).

Technically, I'm on the boards all the time too. I just forget to log out, so I don't post all the time (e.g. sleeping, school, etc.)

Even more technically, you're only on the boards after 30 minutes of your last action.

That would be SPF 100 million. I am guessing that you mean this because your skin is deep within a building, not often exposed to heat, so you therefore must wear very protective sunblock.

Interesting. 🙂

when you connect someone's brain to the sebulba.com server, access the site using an ftp proggy, log on to the cgi-bin directory and all you can see is morningtasks.cgi, vars morningtasks.cgi, afternoontasks.cgi, vars afternoontasks.cgi, nighttasks.cgi, vars nighttasks.cgi, play.cgi, vars play.cgi ........... all the way till dnaaccessscript.cgi. and you next find out the brain had 10 999 1 and 999 zeros tb free and 10 20 tb used which causes a numeric over flow in your ftp proggy because it can't handle a number so large.

grammar sorry, i just spilled some coke on my keyboard now caps lock and shift are not working.

That's an odd one. I'm not sure about the relevance to Uplink... perhaps my last post on this topic should have a standoff with yours.

Or not. 🙂
