Monkeys are a great way of determining that.  If you're willing to grief the monkey, then you're most likely someone who'd get banned pretty fast anyways (traitorship notwithstanding...)

And I always get questioned for turning my self into a monkey.
Damn new age gamers thinking they know everything.
Quinn know's what he's doing too.

Would anyone object to me becoming an Admin? I'm on often, and we seem to have a shortage of Admins.

I'm usualy on, just not recently because I have a lot of life and work going on.

[thobal]

I suppose this means I'll never make admin...

[Deon]

So, I checked the server today... When do you plan to implement my doors? I would really love to see them, I've spent a lot of time when I had exams just to hurry it .

[qwertyuiopas]

I don't know if they are even on Git, and once they are, it may take a while for the hosts to get the latest version...

They will make it eventually, though.

Edit:
Does Deon have Git access?
If not, maybe consider it?

[Deon]

What is Git? I am interested. Also Bay12station is currently full of folks which have nothing to do with bay12 . It's not a bad thing though... But blood, oh god, blood everywhere, and dead people litter hallways.

Also request other sprites you want.

[Deon]

Aand the server is down again. When a round ends, there's no announcement about results and the server hangs.

Git is a program that is used for keeping track of versions of a file and sharing them. Basically, you make a change, then when you feel like it, open Git, gather all of your changes, and "commit" them. From that point on, you can revert to that version whenever you want. More importantly, you can "push" the new commit to a remote location, and others can get the new versions from it. Furthermore, it can merge changes in text files.

The BS12 code is on a Git server, meaning that any change someone makes is available to everyone else who has access to it, without having to download/upload the entire thing.

There are various clients for it(I use Git Gui, others use the plain terminal version, maybe even other options), and it is used by quite a few major projects(I think Linux is one of them).

The overall advantage, is that anyone working on BS12 can get an updated copy whenever they need to, can (almost) instantly have any older version(example: new update causes crashes. Revert to old version until fixed), allows branching(networks used to be a branch, until it was merged back into the main line), and if you get to use it, and can create .dmi files yourself, you have THE POWER to add new icons to the source where the main people get the server, without having to ask anyone to add them for you.

(Heh. Two new branches since I last checked for updates. One of them is named "highrisk")

Spoiler: long image (click to show/hide)

This is a visualization of recent development activity. Just imagine! You, too, could be adding to that, probably with a message like "[Epic Icons] added."!

[Sukasa]

Lag-finding is going slower than anticipated.  I'll get it done eventually.

[Deon]

This git stuff looks like a SVN with some cool interface.

[Sukasa]

Maybe...  I couldn't get the GUI stuff to work, so my Git is CLI

[Grakelin]

looks like server is crashed. We'll need an admin, if it please ya.

[quinnr]

...Who are you?

K: cadupoveda2 (IP: 201.29.88.38) (Time: 2010-04-21 00:30:24) (By: quinnr) (Reason: Griefed a monkey for no reason. 24 HOUR BAN!)

Okay, seriously?

They were obviously a living monkey...and I believe there might have been moregrief.

Git is a horrible thing that hates me. I got my linux comp out though, so I might get it working soon. If I do I'll add your awesome doors. :-P

[head]

Ugh server far away laggy oh so sad.
