Gameranger, b.net, same thing. You can see now why I can't get on it.
Spacey: You've posted more than enough updates. I don't think anyone even knows about my Torgo and Beyond , except ares1 if he has a good memory. I see no point in "updates," I'd rather just have a small mention of it (url="http://"http://ucplugs.evula.net")here(/url), and release it when it's done. But, hey, to each his own, right?
Anyone have tips/advice/words of wisdom for someone who just got braces (me)?

If you have a retainer, don't eat spagethi (sp). If you have spacers, well, that sucks, I feel sorry for you. Those hurt like a hungry mofo. Other than that, it isn't bad, just don't bump your mouth or it'll bleed all over. Also, get the little bristle thingys to get between the braces when brushing. They help a ton.

I did. Oh, I have a photographic memory, btw.

Luke, I know how it feels, I just got braces a month ago. My advice is, when you first get them, it hurts like hell, but it feels natural in 2 days. During those first 2 days, don't try to eat anything harder than bread. Ice cream and popsicles are good, and so is ice water. Just take it easy and try not to think about it.
I typed a very long, detailed message about braces, luke. Seconds before I was going to post it, I hit the "clear" button on my way-too-small keyboard. I will just try to sum up what I said before...

Macavenger, I enjoyed that replay. You are pretty good. I have a few questions:

Ok, questions remembered:
Fighting as a terran in multiplayer in broodwar, are there any differences to original starcraft other than medics and those new frigate-things? I mean, does it change anything for the terrans but those 2 new units? Are there any new tricks or anything?
Originally posted by ares1: **Macavenger, I enjoyed that replay. You are pretty good. I have a few questions:
1. Regular cheat codes are disabled. Some PC-using ######s will use "hacks," special programs of some sort which will give them effects similar to certain cheats. There is, unfortunately, very little that can be done about it, as far as I know. I've heard that there may be some "anti-hack" and hack detection programs out there, but those are also PC only, to my knowledge. 2. Probably soon. That one is the best, though. What I will try to do soon for sure is put up some game notes relevant to that one, which would serve as good learning tools. 3. Not significantly. There have been several minor statistical balance tweaks with each patch, but I doubt you will notice those much. Keeping track of all the stats and such pretty much requires a photographic memory. There are of course some interesting alternate strategies that become effective when playing humans, and some that work on computers that don't work on people, because they are too smart.

Heh, I learned the hard way... I had a power chain, too. Never got full braces. Boy, when they put those suckers on they hurt for a week. I hope you don't get one. :frown:
Thanks for the help, everyone. Even though it doesn't happen too much at my school, I've vowed that if anyone calls me metalmouth, I will refuse to take that kind of crap. First, they get a warning, then, I give them the need to get their own braces. So far, everyone's been very supportive bout it. I've already dealt with spacers, I shouldn't needmore of them. AdvilΕ½ is saving my life, I'm sure. Plus, I have this thing the Dr. just calls "The Appliance." It's much worse than the braces, and gives me something of a lisp. Evrything I eat gets stuck in the damn thing. :frown:
Oh, luke, you poor sonofabitch. That is a Rapid Pallettal(sp) Expander. I had one of those. The cranking sucks. Don't worry about the lisp; that will be extremely humiliating for about 2-3 days, and then you will learn to talk around it. I had to give a speech the day after I got mine.
Yes, food gets cought it that a lot. That can be a real pain in the ass when eating chicken and other tougher meat...
What really, really sucks is when they take it off. Do you remember right after you would lose a tooth, and under the tooth it was all soft and gummy for a while? The whole roof of your mouth is like that for about a day. During that time, I suggest you refrain from: Talking, eating, drinking, swallowing, or anything else that will cause your tongue to touch the roof of your mouth.

All my sisters have though and it's no fun. I do have a permanent baby tooth however, and if that little sucker decides to pop out on me you can then welcome me to your universe :D. I've had it for 17 years though, and have no plans on letting it go - flossing & brushing every night and brushing in the morning.

AoE II Gold Edition for Mac is acting up. Shows blank screen when me loads it, when I renistalled, it said it could 'cause I/O Bad Media or something. Any help is welcomed by great rewards (not really, but whatever.)

Weeell, is file sharing on? Thats all I can think of, and I must say AoE2 HATES filesharing. Will not work properly for more then five minutes if it is turned on. Other then that, trash the prefs and read the readme is all I can say.

Macavenger: A) I saw your replay Your replay was awesome C) Did you get a chance to look at mine? D) What's your bnet name? I'd like to play you E) I have an extremely old site(before I even learned html!! oh no!!!) that was starcraft-related. It has pictures of every unit as well as stat tables. If you'd like to use it for the construction of yours, feel free (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/nick_gab/index.html")http://www.geocities..._gab/index.html(/url)
NOTE: Please forgive that site's incompetency, I am as ashamed as you are horrified by what you see
