Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 07, 2004, 05:03:48 PM: Ah, it returns, to live again...

Anyway, I haven't changed mine, even though it's the wrong size. I'll probably do that soon :P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on July 07, 2004, 07:22:17 PM: My avatar is the one I used on Lemmings Universe. I originally found it on an M.C. Escher site and edited it a little.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 08, 2004, 04:20:20 PM: I changed it now :D

It's basically just one of my old avatars, but colorized in the computer. Well, not that old, but not the newest one either :P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 10, 2004, 12:51:34 AM: i just put my old avatar on my signature and used one andi came up with as my new one.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: chaos_defrost on July 10, 2004, 01:59:21 AM: Yoshi. w00t!

Anyways, I have a spinning blade from my level set I want to use for an avatar... I have to size it a bit better, though... I hate auto re-size.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 10, 2004, 02:35:34 AM: i've never had auto resize happen to me...but then again this is only my second avatar.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 10, 2004, 08:42:27 AM: I just read in LUDB again, you asked my why I don't add the mising arm. Well, kinda simple. I made this avatar with Gimp. But just before I saw the mistake, I uninstalled Gimp. And now I'm too lazy to install it again. ;) So I wait until I make a new avatar, which is may not too far away.

Post by: G3K on July 10, 2004, 01:34:50 PM: t_w wins the award for Most Irrelevant Topic Revival... we'll be talking about something completely different in the next few posts if the past is anything to go by XP

Anyway, no avatar just yet.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 10, 2004, 01:41:40 PM: Yes, but we still have to blame Lemeri for the original :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: DragonsLover on July 11, 2004, 09:34:09 PM: Here is mine! But a little bit blurry! :???:
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: G3K on July 11, 2004, 11:01:02 PM: The reason it looks blurry is because it has been resized - on the old board, you could tell it what size it was and it would display it at its actual resolution, but this board streches the images to fit a certain size; a side-effect of this being the blurriness.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 12, 2004, 01:10:03 PM: Hm, I thought of adding a modification that fixes the problem. But then we might have a day without board again.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: tumble_weed on July 12, 2004, 02:34:47 PM: beh i just added parts to my avatar to make it bigger....pretty huh...i pixeled it all by myself :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 12, 2004, 03:38:41 PM: You did the whole thing? It's pretty good :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: DragonsLover on July 12, 2004, 09:46:12 PM: Andi, something cool for the forum: Uploading avatars!

Maybe I should change it again!
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 12, 2004, 11:20:07 PM: Would be nice, but I have only 8,5 mb webspace left. We need the space for the posts and I need it for my website. I'm sorry. :'(
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 13, 2004, 01:02:03 AM: Hey Andi! &#A0;Did you scan the SNES Mario Kart cartridge??? &#A0;One of your ava's looks exactly like Mario on the cartridge.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 13, 2004, 01:52:24 AM: i'm thinkin about a new avatar soon even though i just got a new avatar...O_o
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: G3K on July 13, 2004, 12:46:21 PM: Just out of boredom, I decided to try and name all of the preset avatars:

012 - Cait Sith (Anime character)
2 - Mario (SNES Mario Kart, most likely)
3 - Tails (SA2, by the looks of it)
366 - Pikachu (Pok&#E9;mon, funnily enough)
375 - Blastoise (also a Pok&#E9;mon)
377 - Mewtwo (Same)
4 - No idea
404 - Scyther (Pok&#E9;mon again)
405 - Eevee (Do I need to repeat myself)

The rest already had names. And the reason I've had to edit this post is because for some reason the Enter button decided to actually post the entry instead of starting a new line for some reason.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 13, 2004, 12:51:40 PM: They are all from an avatar set. there very originally about 600 or so. I only took the best ones. I think I renaim them all to good names.

Can you upload an Articuno one, please?

If you mean the pokemon, done.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 15, 2004, 06:50:09 PM: A light with blood would just be weird. Unless it was sharp :P

Also, I changed my avatar and signature again. You can probably guess what game they're from, right? :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 15, 2004, 07:02:43 PM: Good idea. I'll make one with my characer, too.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 15, 2004, 08:09:51 PM: And done! :D

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 17, 2004, 07:36:41 PM: No, I am not Xan Kriegor. But the sig is me dying off a cliff on 'Red Planet'. As you could guess, I just shot myself with the redeemer.

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 18, 2004, 07:23:23 PM: Uploading one.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on July 18, 2004, 07:28:58 PM: Uploading one.

edit: and done.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 19, 2004, 11:04:08 PM: Hmmm... there DEFINITELY seems to be a new avatar fad going on here: all three dimensional game pics. Well, not much I can do except pull in the other direction: I have no truly 3d computer games. DOWN WITH THE 3D........unless...................hmmmmm......
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 19, 2004, 11:06:08 PM: i just made three avatars. I made all of them in paint
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 19, 2004, 11:07:29 PM: why is my avatar a red X in a black outlined square?

Post by: Timballisto on July 20, 2004, 02:47:15 AM: @ Dumb_Lem: Your URL is messed up.

@all: MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!! BEHOLD MY NEW, 3D AVATAR...............okay, so maybe it doesn't look quite as good as you guyses, but hey, I tried the best I could using a 2D prorgam (Adobe Photoshop 6.0). B) :shutup:
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 20, 2004, 02:57:21 AM: that's a nice avatar T_W. kinda random but than again that doesn't really matter now does it?

Post by: Andi on July 20, 2004, 07:27:25 AM: Yeah. Really nice! B)

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 20, 2004, 02:10:50 PM: Yeah. It's certainly new.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on July 20, 2004, 03:22:29 PM: What do you think of my new avatar? It's from the film Eraserhead, which I just saw last night!
Title: Re: Avatars

Don't you mean, 'What is it?' It's from the film 'Eraserhead'. Watch it and you might 'understand', or you might leave feeling even more confused like I did the first time. O_o
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 24, 2004, 11:27:18 PM: So it's an eraserhead?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 25, 2004, 12:55:25 AM: Is Eraserhead a horror movie?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 25, 2004, 03:07:02 AM: I think so.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 25, 2004, 12:40:28 PM: Ax, enlarge the number over the lemming's head and upsize the font that's in the speech bubble for your ava.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on July 25, 2004, 12:51:12 PM: Lem'ka - The term 'Eraserhead' only seems to be from one scene. In this scene, ***Spoilers follow. Do now read if you intend to see the film!*** Henry, the main character, has a dream where he is in a theatre inside his radiator, with a lady with unusually large cheeks. She is on the stage singing, 'In heaven, everything is fine . . .', after which, he reaches out to touch her, but experiences a blinding light when he does. Then, a tree, which is a larger version of the one on his bedside table, is wheeled onstage. Then his head falls off, and a larger version of the head of his deformed baby grows in its place. His head is on the floor of the stage in a puddle of its own blood, which it then sinks into and falls down a tall building and lands on the ground with a splat. It is still in one piece, so a young boy picks it up and takes in to some sort of factory where he sells it to two men who use it to make pencil erasers. ***End of spoilers.***

&#A0;Like I said, that's not the sort of scene you would want spoiled for you if you wanted to see the film!

&#A0;Timbalisto - Is it a horror movie? That's an interesting question. It certainly has horror elements, and a fair amount of blood and gore in places, but it's not horror as in scary, just a little spooky and confusing. There are no skeletons, ghosts, undead or zombies, and there is no connection to the occult.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 25, 2004, 02:15:32 PM: Sounds intersting, actually. I might see it now :P

Sadly, I only thought of that after reading the spoiler...
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 25, 2004, 02:18:10 PM: Yeah, me too.

Anyhow, I actually did change my avatar and signature. This was mostly for two reasons. One, I haven't been using Rapier lately - I've been using Corrosion instead. Two, the other one was getting old and boring.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 25, 2004, 08:55:46 PM: The sig is you drowning in that game with me and El-_-Tono, isn't it?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 25, 2004, 08:57:42 PM: It was that game, but I wasn't drowing. I was dead in the air. And the other part of it was from the Team Deathmatch.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 26, 2004, 03:05:45 AM: you can't see it in my avatar but the lemming who's about to explode is thinking"darn.why me.why not the guy behind me."
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 26, 2004, 03:06:30 AM: Hah hah. Poor lemming.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on July 26, 2004, 03:09:22 AM: :D :D the reason he's getting exploded is there's a wall in their path.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on July 26, 2004, 12:44:59 PM: If you open the image directly, you will see that it has three seconds before it blows up, so it will have already turned around and bomb the floor.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 26, 2004, 03:52:48 PM: Yeah, poor Lemming. He'll be exploding for nothing (especially since it looks like steel to me) XD
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on July 26, 2004, 04:53:34 PM: Yeah. He'll never hit that in three second, unless he turns into a blocker...
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on August 02, 2004, 01:56:40 AM: I changed my sig.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: G3K on August 06, 2004, 07:13:53 PM: The forum's auto-sizer screws my new one up... Ah well, time to redesign.

:EDIT: Meh, screw a new avatar, Tails will do... new sig pic, that's where it's at.

Post by: Louise on August 19, 2004, 09:26:19 PM: The Great Avvie Competition!!!!!

OK, I've decided to succumb to the pressure of comparative peer sociology and visually represent my internettical personification by way of a visual representation.

Q.E.D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on August 20, 2004, 01:10:45 AM: UGh.....too...much...PRESSURE!!! ARRRRRRRGGGHHHH!!!

Man, the avas and sigs keep getting increasingly well done! But, my graphics skills aren't up to snuff. Time for my last resort...

HOYYAAAAAAA!!!! FEAR MY NEWEST AVA STRATEGY: TRENDSETTER!!!!!!!! ;P B) >:(
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on August 20, 2004, 01:47:50 AM: whats an avatar competition? how's it work?whatv would be the point of it?why do i think the only questions on this post that are serious questions are the first two?why am i asking you all these questions?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on August 20, 2004, 02:19:07 AM: Introducing: Lem Explorer Jones - new ava.

"So what's so different about it Mr. trendsetter?" you say...let me show you: For one, I used an untapped graphics style (......I think........), second, it will be the first ava in a series (that I know of. If this is incorrect, tell me). By series, I mean my avas will track Explorer Jones's progress through the cold northern wasteland of (insert name of place similar to Earth). Also, I will have a map in my signature to go with it, that shows Exp. Jones's location on his journey. Third and last of all, this avatar is a stab into the other direction, and contrasts sharply with the fancy avas and sigs.

EDIT: Well, I guess my graphics style is similar to G3K's Tails pic....but I didn't mean for it to be, and the Tails pic doesn't seem original anyhow.... ;P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on August 20, 2004, 02:21:20 AM: uhhhh. your trendsetter idea worked on me. i'm off to make a new avatar...
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on August 20, 2004, 02:35:54 AM: darn... i forget how to put the avatar on...new avatar coming soon.... (eventually)
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on August 29, 2004, 07:17:39 PM: I changed mine.

BTW, the idea is from G3K.
Title: Re: Avatars

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: G3K on August 29, 2004, 07:57:20 PM: Haha, nice to see I'm an inspiration to others XD

Anyway, for the clueless, this is where it came from...

And I changed mine again. For some reason, I felt it was time to go back to actually having a Lemming-themed avatar.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on August 30, 2004, 05:17:51 PM: I liked your last one more.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on August 30, 2004, 05:19:19 PM: Okay. However, I had it up for too long. I grew tired of it. It was amazing it lingered that long, really.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on August 30, 2004, 07:20:48 PM: The girl in your avatar looks very depressed.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on August 30, 2004, 07:26:12 PM: More angry to me. But it looks good anyway. :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on August 31, 2004, 12:49:02 AM: Cool. Well, the lem dude will move on as soon as I get the time to make him move ;).
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on August 31, 2004, 03:54:54 PM: What happens to him when he falls off the edge of the map? Do you make a new map, or what?

And it's supposed to be the angry one.

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on September 01, 2004, 02:05:55 PM: Weird. I always have to wonder whether it would be weirder with the sound on or not.
Oh well.

And I changed my avatar again. But you probably noticed that.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on September 02, 2004, 12:44:36 AM: Well, this little guy will only exist for so long. He will eventually reach a certain point and then begin a return trip. I might bring him back later though.

Cool avatar, Andi! Very official.

Anatol, I've been meaning to ask you, what is that creature in your avatar?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: hydraboxdog on September 03, 2004, 11:55:07 PM: Thanks! The creature is a moleskin, by the way. :D It says so right below the picture.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Anatol on September 04, 2004, 02:39:10 AM: It's a mole, like Hydra says. My sister added the x's over the eyes to make it a moleskin! X_X Why is it floating? I have no idea. It just came off the internet that way! ;)
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Louise on September 04, 2004, 07:20:08 PM: Oh, I forgot about the competition!

OK.

The Great Avvie Competition!

I still don't have an avatar. So, all you guys get the priviledge of finding me one! The best avatar located by this time next week, wins.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on September 05, 2004, 03:14:29 PM: Located? You mean you're going to steal? Or is it something far more sinister?

Anyhow, I changed my avatar yet again. Now it's some sort of weird alien drinking soda. Why? I felt like it. And it's black and white because I felt like it, too :D
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Anatol on September 05, 2004, 03:33:51 PM: Is it a Pepsi or a Coke product?

Post by: Lemika on September 05, 2004, 04:05:58 PM: Yeah. Unless I use screenshots. And then I usually edit the screenshots.

Located? You mean you're going to steal? Or is it something far more sinister?

Unk?

Nope. Located as in, 'I've found (located) the perfect avatar! Woot!' But yeah, it's kind of a round-about way of saying someone has to make it first.

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on November 16, 2004, 11:14:05 AM: Argg...He just doesn't understand. &#A0; X_X

-----------

EDIT: Yar, me new avatar. :D. It's about a place I was in during a dream. It was like some RPG that I was in, and as far as I can remember, it was the coolest one ever. I've started writing the history of this place and what it's called.

(Looks down)

...Ah, yes, my sig. Well, that's just some quote from a Sequarisan soldier marching to Sequrin, the evil opposite of Seqauris. If he goes there, he will likely die of a certain weed that completely covers the ground, grows to about ten feet tall, and sucks people under into the other weeds, which suffocates people.

The army from Sequaris is going to try to hack the weeds down, and prevent them from destroying their village (the weeds spread).
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on November 17, 2004, 08:35:58 PM: Those are both very interesting. :D

And I changed mine again, too -- even though I suppose you would've already noticed that. I do that whenever I draw a new picture of Lem'ka that I actually like, for some [usually obscure] reason.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Liebatron on November 25, 2004, 01:45:31 AM: Very evil Lem'ka. :devil: :devil: :thumbsup:

uhh....Timballisto, WHERE in that map was my empire? You told me I had a Tree path/Walkway based empire , I used spears. In your dream, you told me you walked out of the mountain caves and into my village.

Ah yes, and I changed my avatar and signature yet again. Just in case that was not obvious.
Not very... Christmassy, I suppose, but hey -- it's red and green. And it doesn't actually have blood. What more can you ask? O_O

And, um, why are you wearing a hat and sunglasses indoors? :???:
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on December 26, 2004, 12:27:32 AM: Sunglasses because of the increasing rate of candles while christmas and a hat because of the decreasing rate of warmth caused by a open door.

I guess that's not correct, but whatever. XD
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on December 27, 2004, 09:25:38 PM: When I came back from the dead, I reincarnated as 'The Piratical SuperLemm', and I made my avatar be Blackbeard. No real reason.

Post by: Lemika on January 02, 2005, 12:52:59 AM: What? No 'Annexed SuperLemm' any longer? Well, this is good, too. Funny, at least. :P

And yes, I did change my avatar again. It's basically something I scanned in and colored [this (http://www.familylees.net/~morgan/reaperguy.gif)] in Photoshop, using a tablet I just got for Christmas. I think it turned out pretty well, considering it's the only thing I've really done with it yet. Only thing aside from a few doodles, that is.

And no, I don't know exactly what it is. It's some sort of nifty shadow creature or something. Maybe it's undead... maybe it isn't. Whatever. I'll try not to change my avatar for a few weeks now. O_o

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on January 26, 2005, 05:12:37 PM: Yours is pretty neat. :D

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on January 26, 2005, 10:47:52 PM: It looks familiar Lem'ka. You always maintain one style, I guess. It looks good, and of course evil.
Title: Re: Avatars

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemeri on January 29, 2005, 12:03:48 AM: Mine changes kind of randomly, but it's been on ClanLord too long. Something will happen soon.
The signature will change when G3K performs the said action.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on January 29, 2005, 12:52:43 AM: It might help if you took the clueless question out of your signature. :P

Actually, I don't see that there's anything much wrong with your avatar... much better than your last one, certainly.

Post by: G3K on February 14, 2005, 04:23:14 PM: For the uninitiated, The Raccoons was an extremely kickass cartoon series which ran from the mid eighties to early nineties - I only ever saw it when I was five or six years old (1996-97) on the early morning kid's TV programmes, which the BBC cruelly scheduled to coincide with the time I left for school, meaning I rarely ever got to see a full episode T_T

Post by: DragonsLover on March 28, 2005, 09:56:17 PM: In fact, my avatar is taken from a neopet online game website and the one that made this site always changed things here and there. So, my avatar appeared, and disappeared... I have to take a look at this!

Post by: Timballisto on April 17, 2005, 03:36:20 AM: Here it is...my new avatar. I drew this one using a symbol for a post office from my German book. Somehow, I suspect that this symbol is out of date, as my german book is about 10 years old or so. It's either that, or, the stupid symbol never really existed in the first place.

Anyhow, that is a cool symbol, so, idea for avatar.

Post by: Andi on April 17, 2005, 05:08:17 PM: It's the old symbol of the german postal office. I remember seeing it on some post boxes. But now I haven't seen it for ages. Maybe somewhere on old boxes it still exists.

This is always a tough question.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on April 18, 2005, 02:27:43 PM: I would suggest something really weird. Look around in your room or wherever your PC stands and count the things you see. When you have reached your day of birth divided through your month of birth (just cut the stuff after the point away) make a photo of it or draw it and use it as an avatar.

For example, you are born at the 8th of February. So 8 / 2 = 4 , count things up to 4 and take that as an avatar.

And if there's an result below 0 just multiple by ten.

Post by: Isu on April 20, 2005, 11:47:08 AM: I searched google for large keyboards I saved the most interesting one to my hard-drive. I edited it in paint so it was just the E-key, and voila.

I have no idea what keyboard it's from btw.

Post by: chaos_defrost on May 02, 2005, 12:19:05 AM: If anyone needs to know, my avatar comes from a Flash movie called "Shadow Government Puppet Show" on Disaster Labs (http://www.disasterlabs.com). It is an amusing site; although a bit of it is objectable (mostly for language). -- The character is a bit ... out there. Can't describe much else without spoiling the movie.

I'm changing the avatar soon.

Title: Re: Avatars

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on May 06, 2005, 11:35:06 PM: Seems like I just signed my death. Of course it would be stupid to put such a sign up. I once saw it and thought: "Huh? WTF is that? - Whatever! Next pic!" I never really thought about it, and if I would have thought about I may have realised that it doesn't exist.
As for the Germany part: Seeing such a sign around here wouldn't really suprise me. Germans are World Leaders in wasting money. xD
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on May 07, 2005, 11:12:11 PM: I think there might be a reason for such a dumb sign. It's either this, another reason, or the fact that, again, someone is really good with Photoshop.

One day, someone made a sign that used the same materials and edges as the one in the avatar. Someone cut themself on the sign, and sued the person who made it. To prevent this, the sign in the avatar was created...only the fact that people can't read the part about the bridge being out ahead kind of ruins the point of making the sign.

You know, I should make a sign like that, and put it up somewhere....now THAT would be funny!!!

You would probably be able to read it normally, I had to resize it otherwise it wouldve been too big for my avatar.

They'll find out sooner or later anyhow...heck, I don't see why the people wouldn't just close the stupid road.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on May 10, 2005, 04:19:09 PM: Okay. A closer look at it.

1st look: That's typical 4chan stuff!
2nd look: Seems really like Photoshop. The colour of the sign around the text is slightly brighter than the rest.
3rd look: 2nd look could also be possible because of the low quality.
4th look: The quality is too bad.
5th look: The sign doesn't even have sharp edges. They are rounded.
6th look: This sign is just too weird.

edit:// better versions:
http://carcino.gen.nz/images/index.php/5922d576/1edba836
http://www.fortliberty.org/patriotic-humor/this-sign-has-sharp-edges.shtml

Looking at the second pic:
The quality of the text is just too good.
--> Photoshop.

edit2:// and there are some differences in the brightness between the upper and the lower text. If the pic would be a real photo I don't think they would be there.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on May 10, 2005, 09:47:11 PM: Case closed due to the evidence found by other members and myself.

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on June 06, 2005, 05:20:24 PM: Well, it's that time again -- in other words, I changed my avatar. I had definitely had the last one for too long.

Lem'ka again, of course. Hopefully, that's obvious. This is just the small part of the sketchy thing I did for my latest layout that I could actually be bothered to color.

And in case anybody is wondering why the heck I suddenly changed my name, it's because I suddenly realized that everyone who didn't know me back on Lemmings Universe was probably actually pronouncing it Lemka. So I thought this should set them right. Even the thought of people doing that annoyed me.

'Course, that's not hard to do.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Isu on June 22, 2005, 09:57:47 PM: Err... Adam, the avitar isn't showing.

Lemika? hmm. I still prefer the original lem'ka, but thats okay.

I'm thinking about changing my avitar. The problem is, finding something worthy (and funny) enough to replace the one I already got. I actually quite like this one (while hating all my others).

Ahh, forget it. I'll leave it as it is.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on June 23, 2005, 01:16:26 AM: Answering the little thing below your avatar, here is what I think summarized in four bullet...er, dash points:

-Wood is a good thing
-Tomatoes have feet
-People eat stuff
-Avatars are good

That was the version for people in senior management. The below will state my true opinions...uh, my apologies if you are in senior management. I can't find anything better to tack it on to.

Anyhow...

I don't know for sure. After you see the avatar about one hundred times the joke behind it usually is dead and decomposed by then. Take mine for example. It is in my opinion dying but not yet dead. Then again it might already be dead. Bah. No matter. Anyhow a change would be nice but this avatar is still okay by me.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Isu on June 23, 2005, 09:53:41 AM: No, I'm not in senior management (are you crazy? I'm only 17!).

Yes I realized the joke might be "dead", the problem is, finding something I like thats as funny as that was. See, I've got a weird sense of humor... (or so I've been told)
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Andi on June 25, 2005, 07:23:43 PM: Better a weird sense of humor, than (like me) a shocking sense of humor. xD
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on July 05, 2005, 08:54:57 PM: Lem'ka, why doesn't your avatar have a nose?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 06, 2005, 03:34:13 PM: I could go into some strange and drawn out tale... or I could tell the truth. Every time I tried to add a nose on, it tweaked me. So I just left it off. I figured no one would really notice, but apparently I was wrong. :D

Besides, it's really kind of hard to tell whether Lemmings have noses... right?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 06, 2005, 04:53:59 PM: ...um, in the menu the lemmings on the letters have noses that are quite large. They also have big noses on the CD case thing.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Lemika on July 06, 2005, 06:40:05 PM: Yeah, yeah, I know. Actually, I'd say those are more like snouts. It doesn't really matter all that, because whatever you wish to call them, I can't draw them satisfactorally, so I thought no snout [or nose, or whatever] was better than a poorly drawn snout [or nose, or whatever].
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Timballisto on July 06, 2005, 08:07:22 PM: Well, this is my new avatar...

"...What the?..."

I can explain. Almost every year I go to a concert for the fourth of July. It is outdoors and everyone sits on the grass. Nearby the concert area is a playground with giant swings. Giant swings are fun! It's also got a slide and other stuff farther back. As the color of the grass changes to brown (only happens around the swings) the elevation becomes higher.

This is a map of the whole thing. Oh, and there are fireworks after the concert. I watched them from the swings.

Sadist => Sadism
Masochist => Masochism

Sadist: Someone who likes inflicting pain on others
Masochist: Someone who likes inflicting pain on themself

Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Isu on August 24, 2005, 09:15:58 PM: Dynamite Headdy. It's an old overlooked Genesis/Megadrive Classic. Probably the second best platformer of the system.

I don't expect most people to know about it, since it was so unpopular.

The game involved you progressing by shooting your head at various things. Sounds weird at first, but once you're used to it it's a lot of fun. It comes complete with various mini-games and bosses that at times it makes Sonic 3 & Knuckles look quite inferiour.

The game itself is very challenging, I still haven't completed it :-(.

I recommend you try it at least once... ...if you can get a hold of it.

EDIT: I recieved your PM AstralLemming. Hopefully this will give you the answer you require. :)

Post by: Conway on October 15, 2005, 09:34:06 PM: Explore, my old one was from a film called The Hudsucker Proxy (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110074).

My new one has a little story behind it. I'm currently doing a course about finding employment, and a few days ago, part of it involved solving a series of these sorts of puzzles. There were sticks set out in the shape of a fish. The puzzle was to move three sticks to make the fish face the other way, and one person on the course said "That's supposed to be a fish? If I had a fish that looked like that I'd f***ing kill it!"

That's just a line that has amused me to this day.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Jazzem on October 15, 2005, 09:36:41 PM: Yeah, I've had that puzzle before (And a few matchstick ones like it).

I don't think I've ever solved one without the help of the answer :P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: geoo on October 16, 2005, 09:23:10 AM: Well, the fish one is fairly simple.

I know one probably known, maybe a bit unfair:

Correct the following equation moving only one stick:
|| = XX|| / V|||

(The '/' is actually a fraction line, not a matchstick, but I suppose even if it was a matchstick, it wouldn't change the solution.)
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on October 16, 2005, 02:48:22 PM: Take any one of the '|'s and put it through the '=', to mean 'does not equal'.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: geoo on October 16, 2005, 02:54:10 PM: Well, it's called 'correct the equation', in your case it's no equation anymore. :P
However, good idea.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on October 16, 2005, 02:58:19 PM: Well you said it may be unfair, so I was expecting it to be something cheap like that.

Post by: geoo on October 16, 2005, 07:10:49 PM: Yeah, it's unfair IMO, but not cheap.

Actually, the equation after changing is not completely correct: The right term is only an approximate value.
Title: Re: Avatars

Well then, that's not an equation either!

The equal sign in mathematics really does mean absolute equality. If it is only an approximate equality, you need to use the squiggly equal sign to denote that.

As you can see above, the equation is not true. The number nine (IX) shouldn't equal six (VI). Just add 3 sticks to make this equation correct. ;P

Well yes, I know, but anyway, I know it that way.

In fact, have you ever seen a completely even matchstick? I really doubt that. So, the equal sign, laid down using matchsticks, will never be one. ;)
(OK, that is just a cheap excuse; when I draw an equal sign using a pencil it isn't completely even either. ;))

Anyway, the answer is...
_
|| = XX|| / X||
(This is meant to be a Pi; and note, the matchsticks forming the '=' aren't completely even. ;))

I didn't even know they are laid down using matchsticks. I thought it was like the fraction bar which is somehow special and drawn with the pencil rather than built with matchsticks. ;)
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Proxima on October 17, 2005, 09:09:47 PM: The answer to DragonsLover's puzzle is to place a I after the X, making it 1 x 1, and a bar over the I on the right side, making a square-root sign.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: ccexplore on October 17, 2005, 11:09:01 PM: Interesting. Though that would make for a somewhat ugly-looking square-root sign. I was thinking it should be more like this in matchsticks:

-- / | \/ |

Take the stick farthest left and put it on the right side of the division sign 10/2 = 5
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on October 18, 2005, 11:13:21 PM: Oh, I guess I was so consumed in the cheapness of the intended solution that I didn't think to check for more conventional ways!

Try this, moving one stick:

X=V/|

(There are many different puzzles that could us this trick. I just need to find one that doesn't have a more obvious solution!)

It's a backroute, if you prefer. &#A0;:P

Speaking of "backroutes", since DragonsLover didn't specify the letters have to be the same size and the matchsticks whole, here's a "challenge":

DragonsLover 1: use no more than 1 matchstick to correct the equation

"This is not a glitch-free solution, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out how to do this, given the limited number of matchsticks." (Hint: Break the matchstick into 3 segments to form a smaller S)

[/parody] ;P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Proxima on October 18, 2005, 11:50:09 PM: It's a valid solution, so you can't call yours the solution.

It's a backroute, if you prefer. &#A0;:P

I assume you're meant to form the letter S to spell SIX; but I much prefer the other way. More mathematical; more honest.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on October 18, 2005, 11:56:16 PM: Okay, here's one I just thought of. It's a little cheap.

Move one stick to make this correct:

|X/|=V

I moved one of the sticks in the X to the | to make it a V. 1=5/5
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: ccexplore on October 19, 2005, 03:44:35 AM: I'm not sure guest's solution is acceptable, since the same letters have rather different shapes and orientations in their two occurrences.

Here's mine solution: Move the "\" of the X further left to turn the "X" to a "V". Or, turn the "V" into an "X"
Title: Re: Avatars

X=V/|

Hmm, if we assume the fraction bar "/" is also a movable matchstick, here's a wacky take on it:

Move the "/" on top of the "|" and make it horizontal, so the equation reads X=VT. Which can be interpreted as a physics formula relating position (X), constant linear velocity (V) and time (T). (Basically, distance = speed x time.)

Guest and Explore, I suppose both your answers are correct. I can't say about your physics solution, since I'm not familiar with than terminology.

Still nobody's spotted the intendeds solution, but I guess that's my fault for not making sure it couldn't be beaten any other way!

Oh, and it doesn't involve putting a line through the equals, and you can only rotate the line you move.
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Proxima on October 21, 2005, 10:46:49 AM: Rotate the top bar of the equals to form a greater-than sign.

Although, if we weren't restricted to rotation, I have another really cheap solution:

Break the I in half. Five over one-half equals ten. :P
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on October 21, 2005, 03:19:02 PM: Close, very close. But a greater-than sign has both lines diagonal.

No. The only stick moved and rotated was the one from the = to the /.
= and / becomes - and >. Only one is moved.

I have a new avatar, and I gave it a 'letterboxed' effect since the new boards only seem to accept square avs. It's from the same film.

Ah, I see! :P A classical scope ambiguity.

You meant we're only allowed to rotate the stick we move, not to move one and rotate another. I took you as meaning we're only allowed to rotate it on the spot, not to move it in any other way.

Post by: chaos_defrost on November 04, 2005, 05:40:21 PM: 2 of my favorite mathcsticks puzzles. One's a but known, the other is, I think, original. Don't know. Someone else may have done one of the 2nd one's before.

1: You have 4 matches arranged in the shape of a + sign. What is the fewest number of matches you need to move to make this into a square? No breaking/bending of the matches is allowed.

2: You have several matches arranged on a table like this:

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v495/insanesteve/matchstick.gif)

What is the fewest number of matches you need to move to make this into a correct equation? That is, an equality? No breaking/bending of matches is allowed.

HINT: If you're having problems, maybe you can approach this from a different point of view...?
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: Conway on November 04, 2005, 07:30:08 PM: 1. 1: Move one match out slightly so a tiny square appears in the middle of the +. Of course, this relies on the matches having straight ends.

2. 1: Move one stick from the = to the -, then view from above; 28 - 16 = 12
Title: Re: Avatars
Post by: chaos_defrost on November 04, 2005, 08:03:45 PM: #2 is correct... For 1... assume you are using toothpicks with pointed ends instead of matches.

Yeah it definitely looks more like a shovel in the picture. &#A0;But in the traditional miner animation graphics from the Lemmings game, it definitely looks more like a pick-axe. &#A0;I guess it depends on whether you're trying to remove dirt (shovel) or chip away rocks (pickaxe).

Asking whether it's a portrait of yourself. Only teasing of course. 8-)

EDIT: Strange... It's now appearing as your avatar every time.
That's what happens. Evidently it either goes into the brower cache or the server recognizes your IP. It would be better to upload it to somewhere that doesn't deny direct linking from another site.

Sorry, It's a site I regularly visit, and I didn't know it denied direct linking. It's understandable I suppose.

EDIT: Fixed :D

Good to see you back Lemeri :)

Lemeri I've played one or two of your levelpaks and the levelpak oldbutgo.dat has misplaced exits and there is a floater missing on level 10 and I can't complete the level :(

The time limit is also too short on Level 7 and I can't complete it in 5 minutes. It would need 4 or 5 more minutes or so to complete. There's also levels missing in bigqthree.dat

Post by: Lemeri on February 18, 2006, 11:44:51 PM: I made those years ago. They are deeply flawed. Maybe some day I'll redo them.

On another note, I changed my avatar.

Post by: JM on February 19, 2006, 10:45:14 AM: Lemeri I could send your levelpaks to you so you can give them a tidy up :)

If you have msn you can add me. My e-mail address is thetransplants2@hotmail.com

Lemeri one of your levelpaks is in the Lemmings file portal. bigqtwo.dat is the file. bigqthree has only one level and almost nearly all your other packs I played seem ok apart from oldbutgo.dat which has too many misplaced exits and level 10 is impossible because there is no floater to stop the lemming from dying. On level 7 there is not enough minutes to complete the level. It would need 3 or 4 more minutes to complete.
