64Digits

<b>Woah! As I typed this, I got an e-mail telling me that the <a href="http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=860" target=_blank>TOPDOWN Editable SDK v09</a> was accepted into the 64Digits database! Hurrah! (It's crazy though: it was ninth in the queue last I checked, which was like five seconds ago. Hmm…)</b>

I'm angry right now. You know why? My chum <a href="http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=Halibutski" target=_blank>Halibutski</a> <a href="http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=Halibutski&cmd=comments&id=3809" target=_blank>got his HaliBadge</a>, and I haven't got <a href="http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=takua108&cmd=comments&id=3212" target=_blank>my 108Badge</a> yet. Admittedly, Hali can't distribute his badge, but still. The badge is pointless in terms of relevance, coming in second in the pointless-o-meter to <a href="http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=DesertFox&cmd=comments&id=3457" target=_blank>the FoxBadge</a>. (Admittedly, the LudaBadge and others aren't very relevant, but they're from admins and mods, so that's cool.) On the other hand, my 108Badge has a purpose behind it, and one that I think will help improve our community.

I'm not flaming anyone who got a custom badge; it's cool that you have one, but it's not cool that I don't when mine had a good idea behind it, and it's not just for whatever I, the potential distributor of the badge, decides it to be.

On a lighter note, people seem to really like me; I've been at 5/5 reputation for quite awhile now.

Also, Hali inadvertantly found a bug in the PM system; I'm not gonna say what it is unless an admin asks me, simply because the glitch is awesome and can be used to annoy n00b users. (No, it has nothing to do with spamming or whatnot.)

As you may have noticed, tonight's blog was written at an earlier date than usual; that's because my last couple of blogposts weren't very popular at all, and I can only assume this is because I posted them at midnight.

So…comments?

<b>[EDIT.01]</b> Whatever happened to the recent activity marquee, by the way?

Halibutski's badge is a complete mystery to even the staff.

You see, all the stuff that went to that marquee was actually from the latest mod log, and since mod logs were removed due to server reasons, the marquee was also removed. (although I loved it)

Plus, it once showed the secret tag

ZOMG HAXX0RR! j/k

My FoxBadge serves many purposes.

1) JakeX originally created it to annoy the hell out of me.

2) There is actually a meaning behind it. It is given to people who I feel deserve special recognition for something. The reasons are different many times. FoxNL got it because he has coded so many useful examples. SS32 got it for giving help to someone. Panda got it because she is Panda. ChIkEn got it because he is insane. The mods got it because they are helpful. And so on. I don't just give it out willy nilly. If I did, every single person would have it. There are many people I'd like to give it to, but they need to do something special, and not just to get the foxbadge.
