I tried, but I lost that thread. I went to look at it one day, and "poof!" it was gone. At first I thought I might have hidden it... |

But, you know, if no one posted after you it would die -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

Works once and doesn't stop the thread from locking -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

In terms of getting new people to participate, it's probably better not to keep giant minorhack threads that span multiple competitions. A new thread for a new competition is a good idea.

Also use decoy thread names. Like for the next MinorHack thread, title it "Want to on the top all night?" -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

I find myself thinking about MinorHack constantly. I can't wait. It should happen more often though, like at least once every week. Edit: I notice that the site says it is currently 1:56 EST, even though it is 2:56 EST. That should maybe be fixed. --- |

I'd suggest adding current time display to the compo site, which should make it clear whether one has set up time zone correctly or not. ________ |

Done. Technically, it's been done since before the last competition -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

Well, the MinorHack is tomorrow. I like the way they are now, mostly because I don't like missing them, and I can't be in them every week. Right now, I only missed one. |

Duh, you're SUPPOSED to read Appendix H of the PHP manual! Doesn't everybody? I need to make that a drop down, I know. It's on the TODO -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

2 hours and 30 minutes to start. I will try to participate this time. Now I'm thinking about what my game will be, and waiting for the begin. [The attack of the space bugs - Speedhack 2005] [Rambananas - Speedhack 2006] [Make clean - Speedhack 2009] [The source god - TINS 2010] |

Hey, CGames, just letting you know, your current time doesn't work very well at all. When I put in america/new_york, it says it's about 2:00. However, in eastern time, it's 10:00. That's 4 hours off. However, when I put in EST, it's just one hour off, as expected. Just letting you know. Anyway, MinorHack in 2 hours. I can't wait. |

I wouldn't expect you Windows users to understand the nuances of case-sensitivity, but suffice it to say that I didn't tell you to put in "america/new_york". -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

Speaking of case sensitivity, why don't you have it force text into all caps? then you could look for AMERICA/NEW_YORK. Makes everything easier for us. Anyway, MinorHack in about |

Because AMERICA/NEW_YORK isn't the time zone either Like I said, I need to make it a drop down. -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

I found the right timezone anyway. So it does work. I think a drop-down would really help. Anyway, good luck to all competetors! |

I have a pop-tart, a can of soda, TextPad, Rage Against The Machine, and the Scrubs marathon on TV. Let's roll. --- |
