Another lesson you should've learned is to back up your files in an undisclosed location.

I did, both on another hard drive and ZIP disks. My dad got rid of those as well. :frown: He knows where everything is... heh.
Cap'n Z: That's my mom's address... weird, considering she doesn't even know how to use it. I asked my dad about it today however, and he said he had sent the e-mail. I wish he signed it with his own name...
ares: Yeap, I've got a empty hard drive now (cleared by my dad). 32meg of my favorite files gone. I had better get started building it back. I think I might have lost Infini-D... if I did, I'll go mad. Good part is, a college student at my church offered to give my a full copy of Cinema 4D XL 7.0, since he no longer needs it. Hope it all works out.
I didn't want to put off any of my studies, but I was receiving so many submissions for the graphics contest that it was putting me under considerable stress. All the more proves I need to learn CGI so I won't have to worry about posting submissions... but at the moment, my education is far more important than what I should be doing during my free time, so it will receive the majority of my attention. I should be around as often as I used to during the summer.
Also, I got my driving permit a few days ago (bleh). My dad said it was an early birthday gift... heh.
Well, I'd better run now. I'm working on an EV board game right now, and my younger brothers are eager to test it out. Seeya.

Sorry, but I tink that is just a bit TOO harsh. I'd be majorly pissed if my parents did something like that to my computer... probably moreso, saying as I'm the one that paid for it, so they have 0% claim/right to getting on it. shrug
All of the files on your website are backed up on my daily backup that the webhost provides... drop me a line and I'll download one of the backups and upload it.
Originally posted by Captain Skyblade: **Anyhow, this whole situation did more good than harm. I have now mastered HTML and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), currently finishing up Javascript, and learning CGI / Perl. My new SS website (don't know when I'll start working on it) will likely be completely hand-coded. Results are much cleaner that way . I also plan on creating other sections besides shipyards at SS such as firearms, soundtrack reviews, HTML guide (hopefully more complete than EVula's:p ;)), as well as perhaps 3D resources and other website code information pages. **
CSS rocks. Bravo on the hand-coding, I'm sure you'll find it much more powerful.
As for the reviews and HTML guide, why not shift some of that stuff over to my site?

For those of you who received the e-mail, what address was it from?
The email I got from "you" was in response to an email I had sent you. Once I get on my home comp I can provide more details about it.
Also, check out the two toys (one is up), as there have been multiple developments, some of which you could help very much with.

Good luck with the driving test when you take it, failing is 100 times worse than slacking off on your work (unless, like my brother, you are a year behind).
Is there any chance that we will have unbiased moderation in this webstory? I have heard that David Arthur is not going to help... has anyone else offered their services? I think that the best thing this story can do to prevent BFS III's problems is to have unbiased mods.

Hmm... Skyblade must be just a tad wee bit ( :)) older than me then, eh? Since I get to get my Driver's Permit in September, which I probably won't do, due to the snow... I'll do it when I'm fifteen. If you haven't guessed by now, I'm fourteen, and you have to be 14 1/2 to get your Permit here in Idaho ( I Da Ho :))
Well... Whatever. this is pretty much a sig. test.

Heh heh... That's the beauty of having a large external drive, like mine. All the games are on the external drive, so my father never goes in there... It's like the Valley of Darkness. In his mind, I think he's saying: "I have walked through the Valley of Darkness, and yet I am still standing... A MIRACLE!" (Old Verse ;))
Could somebody please help me with my topic at the Dev. Board, called Importing Sound (Music) or something like that... :frown:
Hmm, weird stuff happening around here...
Hey, everyone, I'm back, after a fairly long time of absence. An EV Webstory is still slated for June, right? Or did CS losing his stuff set that back?

Question: How are mercenaries going to split the money recieved from planets? Not from payment from missions which would be division specific, but from the planets that are mercenary held.

Hello?
I still think that Independent planets that are under player rule should have an advantage in defense fleet size. Mercenarys could also have an always 6 jump rule, making them more valuble. Feds could spend larger amounts of money on defense fleets while not increasing size. Rebels could possibly be allowed a single upgrade to their ship at the beginning of the game. Of course, it'd have to be a stock one from EV. Lethe and Cyndonion I haven't thought of, But Pirates could have Discounted ships (5-10%). But If Lethe's had to do with speed, Cydonion would have to do with power. As in they'd be opposite advantages.

Also, how are we going to have the missions for Mercenaries done? Are they going to be posted here, the website (coded perhaps for the last two), or by e-mail?
Did Skyblade get grounded again? Does anyone have any answers for the questions that have been raised?
Yipes. Boy have I missed a lot....
So, am I still the leader of the Lethe?

Skyblade is, how you say, on probation. I assume. I think he's allowed on, but not to long or something. Or maybe he got kidnapped by a mole person...

Has anyone seen Macavenger in the past month or so? I thought he was taking over the webstory anyway.
