Your memories of the early days of the internet
I still have the same AIM screen name from when I had AOL in the fifth grade (circa 1994). I racked my dad's AOL bill up to around $500 once playing Neverwinter Nights. I thought he was going to murder me.
Stencyl has launched
It probably converts it somehow--who knows. I played around with it this morning and it seems nifty enough.

Minecraft: Post Whats In Your World

I made this great dungeon tomb, and all these huge structures. Then I died and respawned where I started originally, and have no idea where my buildings are. Goodbye Minecraft!
You can make a bed with three wood planks on the bottom row and three cotton in the middle row. Sleeping in it will set your spawn point.

Best games for PS2?
Going Commando is my favorite Ratchet and Clank game. I felt like it had the best balance between platforming and action. Basically, if they ever get serious about making a 3D Mega Man game, Ratchet is a good series to emulate.
Anyway, I think my favorite PS2 game is Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Mapping Contest 2k3

Blitzen's map is great, but it almost feels as if it's being picked as the best simply because he didn't make a castle. Some of the castle maps are wicked good.
Shrug... I voted for it because it was a well constructed map, not because it was different.
Re structured town. tell me what you think :)
You can always use your RMN locker to upload pictures. They take up very little space so you can fit a lot.
Button Mash - Forcing the player to use different skills
In Necropolis I am using a combo system to encourage variety in ability rotations. Basically, abilities come in three stances: basic, finesse, and power. Performing an ability generates a combo point from its respective stance, and each ability automatically places you into a different stance. So, the Slash ability, which is usable from the Basic stance will combo into any ability accessible via the Power stance.
You can change stances at will, but doing so breaks the combo. Executing a three-hit combo is to the player's advantage because it results in a finisher, which is like a powerful limit break move or however you want to describe it. The finisher changes based on what sequence of combo points you have, so it's in your best interest to plan your ability usage accordingly to execute the most effective finisher technique.
I'm happy with the mechanics on the whole--the difficult part is making boss encounters that keep it interesting.
