Revision as of 17:24, 14 October 2005

I was so glad to hear Valve started a Wiki! They're really cool. I hope they get it listed in the Wikimedia project Interwiki database.
I created a Mycroft search plugin for the wiki which can be found here.


Update: October 14, 2005


Everything's all good! My motherboard is bad, so I can only use one stick of RAM.. down to 512mb. Fortunately I didn't have to reformat or anything. And I bought RDKF again, so I have every game that's been sold on Steam, so far. :)


About Me

I'm primarily a programmer, and prefer PHP as my favorite language. I know C++ (and thus attempt and fail horribly [due to my excellent procrastination skills] at making HL1 and Source mods) as well as VB.net and several others. I also know (X)HTML, CSS, and other web-standards. I am also a web-standards-nazi. [1] I've been working with computers since I was 8, and love to use Wikis. Some day my personal site will be one. Some day.

Half-Life 2 is the best game out there, no doubt. I got up at 6am (EST) on November 16th to play HL2 before I had to go to school (I really wanted to get up at 3, especially because I couldn't sleep, but didn't want to get in trouble.) I love playing HL2:DM and I think I'm pretty good at it, and I rule at my own map.

I love UNIX/Linux, and am forced to have a Windows machine to play Half-Life and other games on, so it's my primary machine. I have a server that runs Gentoo, and I also enjoy FreeBSD. Open source all the way.

And don't forget to spread firefox!

Maps

Mapping is fun. I've only released one map so far, it's a fast-paced Half-Life 2: Deathmatch map.
