Fixed. Kansas should never gotten a second date.

The last good thing to happen at Kansas was Carl Edwards dive bomb for the win in '08.

to me, the last good thing that happened in Kansas was when Front Row Joe won, but thats beacause he lives in the same town as me in Florida....

Good News Everyone!

I have found out that:

A: My Data is recoverable
B: It should be finished later tonight (so I can pick it up tomorrow, or have someone pick it up for me.)

If I am able to retrieve the data, I may be able to either keep things the same or I may just stick with the Striker, which I'm coming to like and like more. (If I can get all the layers straightened out, etc, I can just swap paint jobs from the Brute to the Striker)

However, that brings up another point, I'm now questioning whether or not to include two teammates for my driver to attempt Decatur, if I stick with the Brute, then, yeah, their paint jobs are finished, but if I go with the Striker, then I'm stuck doing the paint jobs on a bloody netbook with a 10 inch monitor, as much as a headache it was to recreate the Newgrounds template from scratch, adding a new set of taillights and headlights... not to mention editing many other things (Replacing the Velocity's parts with my own)... the thing is that I want to use the Striker but am afraid that I cannot put the man hours or patience into redoing the paint jobs (that is if I have to do them from scratch, plus with me driving a truck and getting ready to go on my own, my time to do those kind of things is getting shorter).

Of course if I was allowed to use the Brute and Striker in conjunction for the same team, this wouldn't much of an issue as I have good enough templates already uploaded. But I'm sure that the rules only allow one Make and Model per team, in each individual series. But it would be interesting to say the least.

So, once I get the base template ready, I'll most likely upload it in .xcf and .psd, this should allow others to save the templates in case I have another issue with crashing hard drives or my motherboard fries.

I'm not whining or complaining, but thinking out loud. I'm sure those people who paint the majority of the templates can relate in some ways on the headaches associated with getting things done where you are happy with it.

Peer pressure sucks. Once my friends were trying to make me hug some girl and then making up some stuff about me wanting to go out with her when I didn't even like her. This went on for about 2 terms. It was so annoying.

Good news! I just found my long lost copy of NASCAR Racing 2002 Season! I'd been looking for this little bugger for the better part of a year, and where do I find it? In an old, unused drawer in the under my desktop. My parents are really the only people that use the desktop, I use my laptop in my room, so that probably explains why it's taken me so long to find it. Now to install this baby and start racing again!

Started playing Mario Kart 64 on an emulator. The game is excellent. The one thing I'm still trying to understand is how I hit Yoshi with a red Koopa shell and at the same time it got me. Question

Worst thing about this game is the fact you're faster than the green Koopa shells, but the best thing is having narrowly missed a boulder, then hearing Toad scream as he gets crushed by that same boulder. Wink

Anyone having problems opening spoilers or seeing the pictures you post or others post being cutoff instead of the normal preview with the zoom or full screen options above them?

For some reason this is happening, I can view the site normally though, and I was able to open spoilers and view pictures on this site normally up to yesterday.

I cleaned my cookies, and other 'web' junk from my hard drive, etc, still the same problem.

System:
Intel Atom Processor
2 GB RAM
Windows Ultimate
Resolution: 1024x600
Mozilla Firefox

Internet Explorer won't even show the pictures or let me log in, so that's a no-go.

by Sparkz47 Wed Oct 19, 2011 9:34 pm

Oh, man, don't get me started on the football team. They tore down our perfectly good, current football field (THE SECOND OLDEST FOOTBALL FIELD IN ALL OF TENNESSEE; It was a state landmark for crying out loud) to build an extra building for the elementary school that wasn't even needed. Then, they just go ahead and blow 9 MILLION DOLLARS of the town's budget on a new "sports-plex" for the school. Yeah, great use of money when the entire downtown area is covered in 50-year-old decaying buildings and nearly every factory and business imaginable skipping town.

[Rant mode deactivated]

So, yeah, how about that school Internet?

Our school's Internet blocks ever website but coolmathgames.com and the school website. Laughing
