News:
"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work." Writing is all about execution, and I find applying some basic laws of physics to magic systems make them more understandable and realistic. Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

Webcomics & Free Stuff / Fear not
« on: October 10, 2002, 09:14:43 PM »
Spriggan is currently working on getting flash MX, or flash 6. this version is realy cool and allows you to load MP3, and graphics from outside the flash file (so I can make the Droid game a lot smaller, actualy I can make the sound version the same size as the non sound then just stream in all the sound) also it has a lot more capabilites that will make the forum game easier to do.

Webcomics & Free Stuff / Crew Poll flash
« on: October 05, 2002, 03:09:35 PM »
I light of how wacky and cool this group of polls are I've decided to do a little thing. Â this is just the first version, I plan on cleaning up things. Â Also I plan on adding a text box to the side. I'm not sure exactly what I want to do with it, I just know that it would be cool to have text that appeared when your mouse rolls over a character. Â also it's 1 mg, mainly because of sounds.

Everything Else / The Gap: The root of all evil
« on: September 27, 2002, 09:48:11 PM »
this is a quote from msnbc article I am not makeing this up:
In the afternoon, a dozen protesters stripped to their underwear while standing on the cut stump of a redwood tree they had placed across from a Gap store in Washington’s Georgetown neighborhood. The self-described “Gaptivists” chanted “We’d rather wear nothing than wear Gap” and accused the company’s owners of being involved in logging and running sweatshops.
“There are injustices going on all over the world and the Gap and the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are all part of it,”
What??!?! Logging! who would have guessed that the gap used saw dust in their jeans. And I also love the grouping of the Gap with the world bank, Like the gap has any affect over Micro-Economics.

Hey Fell I found out your problem with the autocard wizard. 
www.snorbert.com/VG/magic.html
umm the problem was pretty simple one but easy to make if you haven't done much with Java script.
this code:
<script language="Javascript"> function WizardsAutoCard (cardname) { windowName = "WotCWindow"; params = "toolbar=0, location=0, directories=0, status=0, menubar=0, scrollbars=0, resizable=0, width=450, height=400"; win = window.open("http://www.wizards.com/magic/autocard.asp?name="+cardname, windowName, params); }</script>
needs to go right AFTER the <html> tag, wich is the fist tage in an html page.
