I picked up the Orange Box about a year ago for about $15 and it sat by my TV collecting dust for quite a while. Then, one day, I just decided to play Half-Life 2 and BAM Valve got me addicted.
It was totally worth the $15 xD 805

IMO it's stupidly hard to put a numerical rating and track it on something that varies so widely from person to person. For example, I have much more respect for Frezal than it appears many of you guys do, so while I may rate him in the 60's, he may get rated in the 20's by someone else. The only way to do it accurately would be to have a consensus of 5 or so people and take the average. Even then, I think ranking people on a 0-100 scale leaves too much room for error on something as subjective as respect. Perhaps a broader scale is the way to go (ie: A+ to F scale). That way, it eliminates the need for tiny distinctions such as 62/100 respect to 60/100 respect.
But, with all this being said, is this ranking really needed? What would we be really accomplishing here? The numbers on the wiki hold no real value to anyone, and I'm admittedly a bit confused as to their purpose. Are they for those who seek info about the GTM's forums, so they automatically know who they should respect more than others? To me, this seems like a self-defeating principle. New members - scratch that - everybody should have the same (high) amount of respect for everybody else here, unless they prove themselves undeserving of being held in high regard. Thus, ratings are pretty much useless. Long in short: once again, we're making too much work for ourselves on categorizing the uncategorizable and ranking the unrankable. We're here for enjoyment, so kick back, relax, and enjoy a R0B0 smiley, on me: ![]() 806

GOD DAMN YOU VALVE. WHERE IS MAH EPISODE THREEEEEEEEEE???
I was so excited when I heard of Valve's "big announcement" at E3 too... It's not that I don't like Portal, it's just that I can't seem to forge the same bond that a lot of people have with that bloody companion cube. 807

Why all the subtle stuff with Sage's avatar? I mean, glasses? C'mon, that's terrible. Whoever's doing it, just replace the head with a giant dick and be done with it. WAAAAAAAAY more potential for humour there.

Expanding the rear gets no weight. This chassis with plastic 5 is 34.8 kg. A rectangular one on the same footprint with plastic 5 is 39.2 kg. That 4.4 kg swing would be enough to vault me into HW territory.
Therefore, C chassis are quite useful if you can use the well :P 812

DSL TC Showcases / Re: R0B0SH4RK's DSL Showcase« on: June 25, 2010, 03:49:37 AM »
It's always a challenge.
And I could probably trim the chassis down a bit to give it Ti 3 now that I think about it... 814

Cool, but I generally dislike setups like that. If one thing hits that extender, your whole apparatus attached to it falls out.

As promised in Pwn's showcase, just a really quick build of Aquarius. 796-ish kg, Ti 5 , 4 ants, 1 large airtank, 2 medium airtanks, 1 small airtank, the rest is visible. The discs on the back are supposed to be static srimechs, but they're not that effective...
![]() It's mediocre, but pretty decent for a first draft of a bot. So, whose is better, mine or Pwn's? :P 817

I'll probably be done within the hour, so I'll post it then... 818

Actually, I like the vuvuzelas. They add a certain "buzz" to the building that you otherwise would not get.
HA! BUZZ! GET IT!? But seriously. They're really not that annoying. |
