...because I've made a new background for MT that Styxx should be parading around any... errr, moment now.  

[Styxx]

Hey, this should be on the Internal Board Where All Secret Neat Stuff About Machina Terra Is Discussed™ (or IBWASNSAMTIS™, for short), and not here!

Anyways, I've already tested it in-game, and it looks good. Really good. It's just that my comp is trying to stay alive hanging to the net through a puny dial-up connection (which keeps crashing, by the way), so I can't update the site nor upload anything (my connection here at work blocks ssh ports, dammit). Expect updates soon, though - most probably still tonight.

[IceFire]

I'm excited!  

[Alikchi]

Hum de dum dum..

*checks lock*

Hmm..

[Styxx]

Damn, my comp simply wouldn't connect last night, couldn't upload anything.  

[Setekh]

Damn dude, that's sucky. And we can't do much about it, either  

...I suppose you could snailmail me a 1.44mb disk to me with the files on it... probably take a couple of months to get here... that'll be a record time for uploading a ~150k file  

[Styxx]

And it's would be the first intercontinental FloppyNet™.  

Damn, I'm using the ™ char too much lately...

[LAW ENFORCER]

Thats just a sign of gloablisation... and the destruction of it...

I wish I had a cool render with planet dieing here... pants...

[Alikchi]

Pants? Where? I don't see any..er.

Let us never speak of this again.

[Setekh]

 !

[Alikchi]

What sort of background is this?

[Styxx]

For now, just nebulae, suns, planets, etc. We have some nice plans for different stuff, though.  

[Unidan]

Is it pants, or toast? I prefer toast. Mmmmmm, toast. TOAST!

[IceFire]

Actually, its a nebula.  Usually nebulas don't consist of pants or toast...but there's a first thing for everything.

You could try to implement RFC 1149. It might be a bit slower than dial-up, but if you can find another point to connect to you could theoretically have unlimited bandwidth...

RFC 1149... 'A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers'.

Hmm...  

[Styxx]

Yeah, like... pigeons.
