| 03:40.19 | blast007 | your forum account? |
| 03:40.24 | BinarySpike | Correct |
| 03:40.34 | blast007 | what did you forget? the password? |
| 03:40.52 | blast007 | cuz there's a "forgot password" thing |
| 03:41.08 | BinarySpike | The e-mail account it is associated with is no longer active and when I performed the "Forgot Password" it reset my password to an unknown unretreviable password. |
| 03:42.18 | blast007 | I don't think it messes with the password until you actually reset it |
| 03:42.23 | BinarySpike | oh |
| 03:42.36 | BinarySpike | Is there a max amount of tries I can try? |
| 03:42.40 | blast007 | yeah |
| 03:42.57 | blast007 | in a set timeframe, anyway |
| 03:43.23 | blast007 | and then it either prevents joins from that IP for a while, or it will just make you answer a question |
| 03:45.22 | BinarySpike | Hmm, it's asking a question, "What is the name of the game?" When I put in "BZFlag" it doesn't seem to be accepting that. |
| 03:46.03 | blast007 | that's right, but the password isn't |
| 03:46.18 | BinarySpike | Then idk, I've tried all my passwords... |
| 04:02.12 | BinarySpike | Thanks blast! |

| 22:41.08 | randomparticle | sw is a sphere? |
| 22:41.34 | randomparticle | looks like that to visually, in the out of window view |
| 22:41.52 | randomparticle | s/to// |
| 23:03.53 | JeffM | yes |
| 23:03.56 | JeffM | what else would it be? |
| 23:04.36 | *** join/#bzflag sirquine (~quine@c-76-125-167-53.hsd1.pa.comcast.net) |
| 23:18.33 | randomparticle | just confirming to be sure |
| 23:19.24 | randomparticle | i've noticed that the radar ring for sw can enclose your tank, and yet you still survive |
| 23:19.42 | randomparticle | which occurs when your tank is on a different vertical level to the sw firer |
| 23:20.04 | randomparticle | that could be changed so that the radar shows the actual radius at your level |
| 23:20.39 | randomparticle | i was accused of cheating the other day and i think that's the reason why |
| 23:20.57 | randomparticle | the person watching sees your tank inside the sw ring and the tank doesn't blow up because the ring is wrong |
| 23:22.25 | randomparticle | i realize the radar is not a proper radar in the sense that it does things a radar on your tank couldn't actually do |
| 23:22.32 | randomparticle | but in this case a small improvement could be made |
| 23:25.50 | *** join/#bzflag short_circuit (~spldart2@c-98-198-227-61.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) |
| 23:32.50 | JeffM | anything can be changed |
| 23:37.16 | blast007 | randomparticle: how would that help in your instance though? |
| 23:37.29 | blast007 | the SW ring would still show the same on THEIR screen since it is at their level |
| 23:37.40 | randomparticle | yes, if they were the firer. but this person was in obs |
| 23:38.12 | randomparticle | but it's also a change that makes sense if you want to avoid the sw that approaches you |
| 23:38.37 | randomparticle | there's no way of judging accurately from the radar where the outer edge is at the moment |
| 23:39.58 | randomparticle | it would be a very simple change. would you like me to code it up? |
| 23:44.44 | randomparticle | ( joe + joe + joe ) / 3 = average joe? |
| 23:45.07 | blast007 | then the observer needs to get their eyes/brain checked |
| 23:45.11 | blast007 | before it's too late |
| 23:46.12 | randomparticle | i'm not sure how well the average joe understands spheres |
| 23:46.32 | blast007 | tell them it's like an orange |
| 23:48.12 | randomparticle | ordinary shots display differently, depending on their level, if certain options are chosen |
| 23:48.17 | blast007 | and to answer you previous question, no, don't think it's worth coding up |
| 23:51.07 | randomparticle | sw is the only shot that you can't tell whether it will hit you if your back is turned |
| 23:51.19 | randomparticle | laser and ordinary bullet you can tell |
| 23:51.27 | randomparticle | gm too |
| 23:51.36 | randomparticle | sw, it's just lucky dip |
| 23:51.48 | randomparticle | you run away of course and hope for the best. but you can't know |
| 23:51.58 | blast007 | does the color of the ring not change depending on your relative height? |
| 23:52.31 | randomparticle | i don't know. but that wouldn't help you. if an ordinary shot is differently colored, you know it will miss |
| 23:52.45 | blast007 | no, it does help |
| 23:52.48 | randomparticle | if the sw ring were differently colored, all it would tell you is that the ring is a different size |
| 23:52.54 | randomparticle | but you'd have to guess what size |
| 23:53.00 | blast007 | yeah |
| 23:53.15 | blast007 | it's radar |
| 23:53.34 | blast007 | it shouldn't be a perfect view of the world |
| 23:54.01 | randomparticle | it's a pretty weird radar. is essentially and a satellite view beamed into the tank |
| 23:54.48 | randomparticle | there's a cloaked word in that sentence |
| 23:55.28 | blast007 | grabs Seer |
| 23:55.32 | blast007 | still not showing up ;) |
| 23:55.38 | randomparticle | :--) |
| 23:56.16 | randomparticle | with cheat accusations one call always fight fire with fire |
| 23:56.40 | randomparticle | for example, i might say "you must be cheating, because nobody could play that badly without artificial help" |
| 23:57.06 | randomparticle | sigh. what's with my typing tonight. can not call |
| 23:57.51 | randomparticle | do you think, blast, if you had senile dementia you would know it, or would your world view adjust to make it seem normal? |
| 23:58.08 | randomparticle | obviously that's a highly hypothetical question |
| 23:58.55 | randomparticle | i think i might be (going) a little demented |
