    Empire Attack

    Here is an interesting game the strategy-minded among you might enjoy: Empire Attack! The game's basic idea is simple: you win by controlling the most squares on a gridded playing surface, expanding from square to square by putting a certain amount of population on each square. You have a home...

    Linkin Park Parody

    Rofl, it's so accurate, I actually did listen to them in junior high too ...

    Dreams and Nightmares

    I always keep a pencil and paper next to my bed so I can quickly jot down details of my dreams before I forget them. I've been too busy/tired to do this lately, though, since I have to immediately wake up on school days and on weekends I sleep in past the point where I'm actually dreaming. I had...

    My Return

    I was actually a somewhat prolific poster back then :rolleyes: So some of the 'old crew' remember me. The same exact thing that I'll probably be doing in a few months, lol :) What was your account name then?

    My Return

    Has WoW really had that much of an impact? I guess that makes sense ... When I destroyed my Warcraft III CD I never even considered joining WoW. But I came back here more for the community than anything else.

    My Return

    Thanks for the welcome : ). Lol, probably true. But I'm wiser this time around (plus I can download the game client for free from the internet anyway, and its easy enough to get serial codes, so no nee to break the [6] CD's). There's always some new game (or old) that I'll be interested in...

    My Return

    I'm not dead after all, it seems. Only members who have been here a while (2 years at least, I think) will remember me. For those who I didn't talk to much but were around at the same time, I was the naive young kid who was always throwing out random (and occasionally interesting or helpful)...

    Game Time Help...

    I doubt it could be done while WC3 was off. You would need to have the game code access some sort of variable from your computer (which keeps going even when shut down), which can't be done (without very intensive manipulation and code-cracking, if at all) on Warcraft.

    Elevator from the water

    You can't put buildings on the default elevator so that it sinks into the water - you would need to make a custom pathing for that. Don't make your elevator a building, but instead a unit that can't move, is invulnearable, has fortified armor, etc. but sells items :) In short, give it all the...

    WEU, yes or no?

    Of course there will be bugs! There were, and are, still bugs at large in the original Warcraft World Editor code, a code created by professional, paid programmers. For amateur code-developers adding onto a program several years after its release, do you think it will mesh perfectly? No. But...

    Technology Molecule gives passionate lovers just one year

    Rofl, The Helper, there were only 2 more paragraphs :P You might as well have added those instead of linking to the site :P -Science: Dehumanizing your world one 'molecule' at a time- (TM)

    General - 17 Steps to Greatness

    What? Are you talking about this? :P My system does terraining first. I agree completely, which is why steps 3-7 come before step 9 :P It's impossible to trigger your map completely until you have everything else the triggers will need done, which is why object data comes before triggering...

    General - 17 Steps to Greatness

    Thank you. Do I detect sarcasm there? :P My last one is pretty long :P

    The TD Paradox

    Making 'lane abilities' or area abilities could be a cool feature too. I'm not talking about giving the grey gatekepper more gold; making unique, reactable objects, like rocks you can push to create an avalanche in certain areas, would be an interesting way to play. For another example, a...

    AOS Terrain

    Start out laying out the pathways and major land features in tiles. That makes it easier to fix at first and gives you a basic idea of where things should go. Make the tiled version, at least, symmetrical, so you have a base to work off of. Then begin raising major land features - mountains...

    A day in history: Wc3campaigns.com shuts its doors, bids farewell

    Seriously, I would expect to find that on a tombstone in some graveyard, not a gaming forum ...

    If life was like DOTA...

    If life was like DotA, the world would be flat, the sky would be black (simply black, no stars, just oblivion), haughty, immature (somewhat obviously), rude 11-year-olds would rule, and my best friend would be a grotesque, 2-D monster (at best).

    Blizzard - They Should Thanks the Creators

    Why would Blizzard waste any more effort and money on Warcraft III and Starcraft and Diablo (besides keeping the servers up and running, probably in a closet somewhere) when they can get so much out of WoW? I mean, really - the only Warcraft III games you see in stores are the cheap...

    Map optimizer 3.3

    We have to make sure to redirect anyone who comes to us saying 'All I did was download and install this program from this site and now I am bombarded with spam, my bank account is mysteriously empty, and I was stalked by two masked men yesterday. What did I do or not do?!'
