As far as I know, the "I blame Keith" thing has always been an MxO inside joke. Then again, I've thought that a lot of Internet memes were local to the MxO community, like the whole Mudkipz thing.

I do have, y'know, a web site called "The MxO Archive" I'd be willing to take any content people send my way for archival. I'll also do my best to save as much as possible, with what little time I have these days.

High **** time, that's what I have to say about this. Don't get me wrong--I love LESIG and what they were able to do, but they've done their job in keeping the game afloat, and they've run their course. The live events system in this game...

Just saw this today with a group of friends, and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. No headaches, but we were unable to focus on one particular object for a good hour or so afterwards because of the crazy super-in-focus filming technique they u...

From what I understand, they're trying a radical camera technique that involves keeping most or all of the fields of view in each shot in focus, which is normally not practical with a film camera. They're trying to emulate the crisp everyt...

We had some here in Oregon a week or two ago, when it hardly ever snows even in winter. Global warming my foot.

Hey Zippy, I took the liberty of removing that combat text you had on that one shot for you: linky It only took a minute or two using the clone tool. If you haven't learned how to use that yet, you should do that before learning anything e...

The way it works in the game is that the .wav files are layered as they progress from one to the next (and yes, they do go in order). As the first file fades out, the second file starts in, and as that one fades out, the third, and so on....

Moriah East, you say? Man, that area is just trippy as all hell with the signal boosters--there's another invisible one at the entrance to The Sanguine Room, and it's been there for ages.

Wowwwww.... Can't wait. Still don't know what it is at all (new construct vs. new district vs. whatever), but it's definitely something new, and it's not anywhere currently in the city. If you notice, the wall is curved gradually to the ri...
