wow, going beyond comprehension is fun.

time is connected to space in a way that we cannot find a way 'out' to observe how it actually works. Since we've never actually seen it, if somebody told us what it 'looked' like we could still never understand, for it's probably not even in a visible dimension. Something that relates to a shape to me would be the spiral, that eternally forms larger spirals, much like how DNA forms a chromosome. It seems to be the closest we can come to a perfect combination of all dimensions, though even this would not be a definate shape. This time-space continuem, then, is more like a pattern than a shape, forming something that goes beyond our minds' limit. A lot to think about while glazing around in math.

Posted on 05-20-05 10:03 PM, in What do you consider a "good game?" Link
an engine that is easy to learn but works great with complex systems later on (ex. Ocarina of Time engine, later used in Starfox Adventures) ,

a sense of accomplishment after each completed task, whether it be little or big,

smooth movement. graphics are only impressive if they're not in stillframe or a cutscene, so a simple character with great movement makes a game much better

overall uniqueness. you can't get away with copying everything from another game and expect everyone to buy it, unless all male college students become addicted to it and the game before it (you all should get the example here)

Metroid Prime is a good game to me. One of the most original first person controls ever, fun speedrun attempt, and very very hard methods of cheating. A scan strafe takes a long time to acccomplish, as does the triple bomb jump. I would like the story progression to involve a little less backtracking, something you can't avoid in Metroid (any one)

I like tea the best out of these. Coffee doesn't affect me enough to be of an use and i always burn myself from hot chocolate no matter how careful I am. Oolong tea is one of my favorites, though i like any kind without a spice or honey flavor.

Posted on 05-24-05 07:31 AM, in What lies beyond the universe? Link
the book A Short History of Nearly Everything implies that the universe is finite but is in a shape that we cannot get out of it, no matter what we do. I think that we could all lie inside of a gargantuan black hole, which pulled itself into itself, event horizon and all.

Since this whole (insert genre)-core thing has come up this year, it will be pretty far from punk, but there will be some that go towards metal, like Avenged Sevenfold and Skindred (reggae-metal XD), and the offspring are always good. Blitzfest does sound a lot better than it. I really don't plan to go to either yet, seeing as my money goes to other obscure things and i know only a few people who'd really like to go

Posted on 05-25-05 06:44 PM, in You know you watch too much anime when.. Link
1. You can recall at least 80 names from Dragonball Z within 3 minutes (one of my sweet accomplishments)
2.You own the Kasumi love pillow, and the custom XBOX skin that corresponds with it.
3.You want to become a teacher in an all girls school just to be hilarious and perverted like Mr. Kimura.
4.You drew (or had someone draw) a Maijin symbol on your head to gain more power and go insane on those rotten bully kids at school.
5. you somehow stuck a jewel to your pet rabbit's forhead, naming it Ryo-Oki.
6. Upperclassmen are horribly confused when you call them sempai all the time.

i spent all of last night on this site looking at stuff. Wow, amazing show. It's incredible that that much talent is in one concert. They're coming to Detroit August 10, in an outdoor amphitheatre which will be sweet. If I do happen to go to a concert this summer, it will be this one.

Glasgow Kiss - John Petrucci

This a great song off of his solo album, Suspended Animation. A great positive sounding song that stays original through all 7:50 of it. I just downloaded the majority of the album, but i'd much rather buy it (it's pretty rare like all really good music).

Posted on 05-27-05 01:19 PM, in The Bermuda Triangle Link
Getting slightly more on track, i've heard a theory that says there are massive amounts of some mineral that massively interfere's with anything's radar. What i like to belive is that The Earth's crust is falling down into it, and that the triangle is a large opening in the earth. On the Pacific Ocean floor, there is a "seam" in the earth that makes new crust and pushes it out. It has to go somewhere eventually, and what a better way than a large opening to earth's mantle? This would greatly affect the waters around it, and maybe the earth's inner elements have a pull on outer things.

(looks at the Jin Suk pic and laughs)

I have a week of school left, and the worst grade i have is either a B- or a C+. Not what I wanted it to be, but satisfying in terms of passing everything. I love band classes, automatic A for me.

Posted on 05-28-05 01:15 PM, in Worst/Favourite/Wierdest Dreams Link
I wish i had cool dreams again, back in the day they were all about action and comedy and suspense, and now they're just all the crazy subliminal things in my head coming out to bother me (and I have an amazing amount of it). These also cause me to have racing thoughts when i'm in bed, which doesn't help sleep. One night I was wide awake because the thoughts grew words and i half heard things continuosly without sleeping. I can also feel pain, tickling, buzzing, and smell/tastes in dreams. The only recent significant one was about my aunt dying which happened shortly after.

Posted on 05-28-05 01:20 PM, in Beatles Link
They've never been a favorite, but the Beatles are amazing song writers, even for a band constantly on drugs . Most of their songs I think are alright, a few that are good. If i was my age in their prime though, they would be my favorite, maybe even as good as The Doors.

You scored as Fantasy. Hooray! You love Fantasy anime. You're into the whole swords and magic thing. Castles and mythical beasts are your cup of tea. Even though it's not anime, you've probably played a game of D&D or two.

Though I hate Quizfarm quizzes in general, this one is slightly more accurate. The Emporer's results are exactly correct for me, i guess this is pretty close.

Spicy BBQ burgers are WAY hotter than Paris Hilton! (i'm serious)

This really didn't seem that arousing, neither did i have a problem with it, just the normal thing you'd see on a billboard in some large city. I don't like blondes much anyway, brunettes/catgirls are the best. I feel sorry for people who are offended by that, and somehow don't change the channel just so they can complain about it. I think things like this should go to cable, along with everything else that people think is too revealing, because right now cable tv and regular are about equal in "how much" they show, with the exeption of E!. Put that only on say, MTV, and it would be much less of a problem.

Posted on 05-29-05 08:18 PM, in Summer is finally here.... Link
I'm going to get a few new sketchbooks, make much more concept artwork, and display it at whichever comic-con i go to. Not much thoughts about a job because I don't need disturbing amounts of money yet, like when my mech project begins..... I'll hopefully be going to Technofest, which is $10 for 2 days and is only about 14 miles away. And the awesomeness that is Gigantour (August 10 in Detroit). Then there's band camp, the one for marching band and the expensive one. Oh, i made a slight error in another post, i have just less than 2 weeks left.

Posted on 05-29-05 10:58 PM, in hot keys thread Link
I've been in the dark about these for a very long time, but now i'm slowly learning a few. In Paint, pressing ctrl-i inverts the colors, and when you hold it down on some pictures, you can create a rave looking scene, and even simple animations. I found a hot key once which opened up my documents, and if you hold it for a good 3 seconds it will bring up like 15 windows and possibly freeze it. Not helpful, but kind of fun.

Well I believe Zerg is a Starcraft term so it couldn't have been that. I was mildly interested in these books, and the not-half-bad television series. I remember that alien and when the kids saw him appar, and how the one guy turned into a hawk for good, but overall I can't remember much other than it was a "doomed mission" kind of story, like all of K. A. Applegate's other books.

YESSSS

I'd like to see Paper Mario as a character, taking Dr. Mario out of it. Fox should be able to use his staff, Ganondorf the sword that he somehow doesn't use, Hector and Eliwood instead of Marth and Roy, a Katamari Damancy styled item, and NO ICE CLIMBERS. If the sonic team people put a character on there...I'd rather have Knuckles, or a Sonic and Tails tandem thing. It would be great if it was as big of a game as melee, where you could hardly actually complete the game because of having to get all the different bonus point acomplishments.

Posted on 05-31-05 12:32 PM, in Favorite Anime and why..... Link
The creator's last name is Watanabe, I think he's a guy, that's all I remember.

My all time favorite is original/fansubbed Dragonball Z. The emphasis on humor and action was such a great combination, that's why Akira Toriyama didn't bother to make much variety from saga to saga. There are well over 100 characters in the series, all with darn good voicing (i actually liked some of the english voices better though). The main theme for it (We Gotta Power) is good too. And for its time, early to mid 90's, this was very well drawn. If you've ever noticed it, one of the very first attempts at "bullet time" came from one of the fight scenes in the Buu saga, in which ssj3 Gokuu kicks Fat Buu in the stomach.
