If you build it they will come.
there will be quite people who will see that it is an open source project where they can participate and help to make it stop sucking.
That's why TMW is awesome.

I've learned a lot here. This is home.

Re: can you download tmw music on mp3

saturn uploads progressing drafts of music in MP3, it quickly gets feedback since people using MSW won't have to download VLC as is the case for when they encounter an OGG.

Saturn is awesome BTW.

Re: can you download tmw music on mp3

There's no reason to want an MP3 version of an OGG file if your system can play OGG. OGG is a replacement for MP3. Conversion between OGG and MP3 results in loss of audio quality. Whether or not I am allowed to depends on whether the version is by its original author and what additional restrictions...

Re: I Need an Answer from GM plz...

Please no. Publicity would mean commoners ridiculing it as though it were a commercial game. The inevitable response is "Ew! they need to do this," and "Ew! they need to do that". TMW as a game alone, not a project, in its present state might serve as enough entertainment to keep...

Re: I Have Returned

He still doesn't comment on "art" (human drawn images, rather). For a while I had the sense that hackers and graphicians were incompatible, but there is hack value in making graphics. To not be bored or anxious I recommend diving into some code AND creating game data. The virtue being, if ...

Re: Signature deleted continually without being warned

Since you participate on the forums I think a link to your site is OK even if it pertains to business. But some folks like to make and abandon an account with a link to their business, marketing, spam, or fraud simply to gain search engine ranking. Sorry for calling you a "market weenie" a...

Re: Be careful about responding to NRUs

Sorry, I didn't mean to say "prevent new users from creating topics". I made a personal decision not to be fooled again by clever marketers. I do think it is naughty to use TMW forums just to expand business visibility to web crawlers without actually using the account. If a script for del...

Re: Be careful about responding to NRUs

Of the 150 newest accounts, the ones listed below are using TMW's resources for their own monetary gain. Typically they just make a deadwood account with a link to their marketing so they will be indexed by web crawlers. These accounts are a waste and should be anihilated: Accounts linking to probab...

Be careful about responding to NRUs

When a Newly Registered User creates a topic, it might be best to ignore it. I should take my own advice for that matter. What happens is this: An NRU makes a nonsensical or bait-like post, then, after someone responds, the post is edited with marketing links. Maybe you knew that before I did. *head...

Re: What really pisses you off?

Another thing that pisses me off is when a spammer makes a nonsensical, but convincing post as a Newly Registered User, waits for a response, then edits his post to contain links to his marketing sites. I should have known. From now on I won't talk to NRUs. NRUs could probably go without the privile...

Re: What really pisses you off?

Mine is the same as Death Moon's, except my neighbors prefer trashy "hood" music, probably because it makes them feel sadistically macho. It's a form of territorial dominance, blasting a stereo as though to have conquered as much area as the song's wavelength. Even if the song were good, b...

Re: Haha! Two Trolls, One Dev

Two trolls and a dev walk into a bar. Both of them sit at the same table as the dev and start snickering. "What's so funny? - Rather... what's not funny." says the dev as he drowns his sorrows in whiskey. The first troll covers his mouth to conceal his grin and asks "hey, uh, guy, you...
