Seeing the rather... not so good articles on the DC lately, I'm inspired to write one myself. But since I've got so little time these days, I guess I can't write all of them and put them in my Click FAQ or something. So, I'm gonna finish one of those uber-articles I've started... but on which topic?
I've thought of working on a basic "Photoshop for sprites & backgrounds", special effects, a sequel to that storyline article, a far better recruitment article, a short "Always and timer events" article, and maybe a remake of that "making your games smaller" article.
Or I was thinking of teaching on how to do programming languages in MMF, but I haven't really figured that out :/.
Disclaimer: Any sarcasm in my posts will not be mentioned as that would ruin the purpose. It is assumed that the reader is intelligent enough to tell the difference between what is sarcasm and what is not.

keep sharpening that wit, dustin, you may need it someday!
Oh, cool, a topic about articles turns into a flame war between Rustin and Mattress. This brings up a quote;
"Flame wars are like the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded."
That out of the way, i'd think an article on mood establishment (e.g. music, use of colors) would be quite l33t, since as fasr as I know we don't have one. But if we do, then an article on sprite making ('MsPaint and why it r00lz j00') would be nice too, though I was gonna make that article and earn much-needed DC points.
Do you mean Dustin?
As for the article you should write... maybe do something on special effects, such as blurs and fake lighting and things like that.
What the fuck, you have to be pretty single minded to be proud that maybe one person thinks your at least one single bit funny. Were they drunk? Were they just trying to be nice Pete?
isn't that your excuse for everything else as well? :/

No, and why does there have to be someone who asks a stupid question in EVERY TOPIC? I'm ashamed of you Clubby, I have a good mind to tell everyone about your 3GB of 'special interests' now

3GB of 'special interests'?
