I hope nobody minds that I cleaned up the title a little bit.
I love the fact that it moves itself - like it's possessed or something. I still can't believe I actually made the damn thing.
I find it hard to use DQN because I'm too dumb to realize which threads have moved within the past week.
On the page source, from line 90 onwards we have:
var pictureSrc = 'http://shii.org/b/mittens.gif'; //the location of the mittens
var pictureWidth = 40; //the width of the mittens
var pictureHeight = 46; //the height of the mittens
var numFlakes = 10; //the number of mittens
var downSpeed = 0.01;
var lrFlakes = 10;
var EmergencyMittens = false;I really want to fiddle about these settings. Especially numFlakes.
>>576
Go for it.
Also I like how Shii didn't even make any effort to hide that he adapted it from a GeoCities snowflake script.
LOL SHII
Wishing on a dream that seems far off
Hoping it will come today
Into the starlit night,
Foolish dreamers turn their gaze,
Waiting on a shooting star
But, what if that star is not to come?
Will their dreams fade to nothing?
When the horizon darkens most,
We all need to believe there is hope
Is an angel watching closely over me?
Can there be a guiding light I've yet to see?
I know my heart should guide me, but,
There's a hole within my soul
What will fill this emptiness inside of me?
Am I to be satisfied without knowing?
I wish, then, for a chance to see,
Now all I need, [desperately]

Just 5 USD would be nice to give http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/673771304/caged-heart-in-this-moment-album-recording

Oh thank you!
I gave $6 and sent it to my friends.
VC: shoy
I thought Katawa Shoujo was kind of boring but the music was nice.
Oh shit! I just realized that I'm going to learn sign language so I can talk with my girlfriend just like that guy in that game. I guess that eroge isn't all that different from real life after all? Fuck, did I just compare life to porn video games? I'm messed up!
>>583
Funny that you say that. I did Rin's route a few months ago and forgot about the game, but just last night I picked it back up on a whim. I played through Shizune's route and found myself thinking, 'I wonder how it would feel to play this while learning sign language to talk to a girl you like in real life?' No kidding, I actually thought exactly that.
I haven't played other VNs so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I was impressed by the art and detail. The plot and dialogue can be long-winded and angsty, and the sex scenes are laughably unrealistic, but I didn't expect much more from an eroge. All in all, it's a pretty fine game for what it is and a testament to the power of internet collaboration.
>>580
Why do you need money to make an album?
Why am I giving for a cause before it's even done anything?
Why not earn the money yourself if you need it? I might be able to get investors, but people on the streets wouldn't just give me money for a project even if it was noncommercial.
I'm tired and it's still two weeks until the festival.
>>585
Because nobody will just give you a studio and/or press your CDs for free.
>>587
In which case you earn money to pay for those things.
Asking for free money because you're a content creator is dumb. Imagine if instead of saving up for their instruments, The Beatles went around Merseyside asking, "Hello, me and my friends are trying to start a band. Would you mind giving us a quid or two so we can afford instruments and a studio?"
Not to mention content creation is fun. Welders or bricklayers may be able to get an advance, but they can't say, "Oh I'll probably weld some trucks or lay a few bricks in the future. Mind giving me some money now?"
>>588
Well, the good thing about Kickstarter is that you only actually give people the money when the target sum is raised and work on the project begins, so you're not exactly paying for vague promises of some distant future outcome. It's more like promising "if you find enough other suckers to get started, I don't mind giving you a small amount".
>>583
This is my new favourite VN, and it pretty much changed my life. Sounds like eye-rolling material right? Well it's what happened. Most other visual novels were pretty much just about the porn and the subsequent fapping. Katawa Shoujo was not, and it showed me what life could be. Rin and Lilly both. Now I'm running, eating better, drawing, learning ASL, and going to college after two years of doing nothing. I have a better understanding of myself and my life and how I want to live and the happiness that I seek to obtain. That I will obtain.
All because of this "cripple porn game." Heh.
I found something chemistry-related, but you're not around so I can't show you it. 'Tis a shame.
IT'S SO NICE OUT!
>just about the porn and the subsequent fapping
If you've been playing nothing but hentai VNs, sure.
I respect your appreciation of the game and the creativity which went into your inspired works, but for such a small project whose roots are in a niche game made for a niche audience and started itself with very few resources, I don't agree with you begging for money to do what so many others simply enjoy doing for fun.
>>594
Oh shit, I am sorry. Your post made me think you were the Kickstarter guy. Anyway I agree with you fully about how amazing the game itself it.
>>585,588,590
By calling it "begging for money", "free money", or whatever, you don't seem to understand what this is for. It's more akin to theater production or concert promotion, where your backers spot you money for something that will end up turning a profit, and that thing isn't going to happen unless there is enough funding to get things started (unless you're trying to replicate the plot of The Producers for real).
Also, the game's FAQ says, "Selling fanworks that do not use official content (including the KS logo) and do not pretend to be official is okay." therefore it is okay. Don't get your knickers in a wad about it. Embrace Elitist Capitalism Lifestyle, fellow DQN.
That said, the proposal isn't very clear on what the product will be (is this a for-profit EP? on what formats? where will it be found when it's done?). One should always make this clear in a pitch; no backer should have to deduce this from anything other than the first couple paragraphs of "about this project". You know, before anyone thinks I have anything to do with supporting this project--which I will not be donating to because I am 100% fucking broke and live in my parents' basement （´_｀）トホホ
WHY AM I SUCH A FAILURE?!
>>598
Maybe your decision to whine about it on an anonymous BBS instead of considering your conduct has something to do with it.
I still have an entire pagoda to build. Perhaps even more than one.
God forbid the height limit be raised again, I don't think I can handle a bigger torii than that.
So some guy is saying in the request thread that Tokiko killed himself. What's the story there? Any confirmation? I thought he just threw another of his tantrums and stormed off the internet in a huff.
That pasta bake will haunt me for the rest of the week.
These cheese-coated buns are so fattening but so goddamn delicious.
That hole in the ocean floor ain't gonna fix itself, sweetcheeks.

He just posted on his tumblr: http://postofficer.tumblr.com/ Looks like he just comitted e-suicide to me.
Making out with a girl I've been obsessed with on the roof of a truck while listening to Fleet Foxes beneath the stars at 3:00 AM? Why, yes. Yes indeed.
No, fuck you, pen.
SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS

Congratulations!
Today, I ran again, and got a job.
Fuck. Yes.
The streetlights came on! Time to go...
>one of his many pseudonyms
What makes a name false? Every identity which someone maintains is authentic in some sense.
That last caller was so full of crap. Everyone knows women are made from sand.
>>617
'pseudonym' is usually used in the sense of a self-bestowed title which one uses as a blanket under which his or her activities may be carried out in order to deter the credit given therein which would normally be associated with a more familiar, widely-known handle. It's not false, per se, but rather a deterrent from one's public and material identity.
I agree, however, and I think this is what you might have been getting at, that with the spread of information whose owner could be anyone, the notion of a static and unchanging alias which points only to the originator of the information itself is becoming less relevant.
Ritual for the disposal of hazardous cognitions.
What a wonderful summer day.
I feel like going to the beach, but none of my friends are the "I'm happy to just sit on a beach and simply be for the day" types.
This is fun!
YES YES YES NO WAIT FUCK
Brother, brother, we don't need to escalate
>>629, could you expand on that a bit ? Why do you feel like so ?
The thought of anyone hating DQN disturbs me deeply and as such, I feel like interrogating you for roughly an hour.

A faceless woman in blue... surely it couldn't have been-- Augh, fuck you, subconscious!
If men were hired based on their breast size, the world would be a far grosser place...
>DFC SUPREMACY
wat
Google: define DFC
Answer: Abbreviation: Distinguished Flying Cross.
This only raises further questions.
But "based on their breast size" doesn't even specify which end of the size spectrum would be favoured!
>>637
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DFC
You're looking for the sixth one down, which, shockingly, does not yet have its own article. Someone must rectify this post haste.
>>638
I was assuming larger. It could make a satirical short story/film: fat men on the covers of fashion magazines and shit.
>>639
urbandictionary cleared it up for me but Distinguished Flying Cross is funnier...
>>639
I'm kind of amazed some uptight editor hasn't removed that entry. I mean considering the implications of DFC. If there were an article posted, it would probably get axed in a minute.
FUCK YOU PAWN SHOP FOR BEING CLOSED I NEED THAT MIXER FOR THE VIPTRONIC ALBUM THERE ARE STILL HOURS OF DAYLIGHT LEFT WHY ARE YOU CLOSED!?
The song I am currently listening to is "Afternoon." WHICH IS WHEN PAWN SHOPS SHOULD BE OPEN.
>>642
Someone braver than I, and behind about seven proxies, should edit it so that it redirects to "lolicon"
I could use a nice massage right about now, but I'm too broke to pay for one and don't have anyone who would give one for free.
>>642
Wikipedia "is not censored".
I guess it could have a position under "lolicon" or "glossary of anime and manga terms" (I bet there's an article like that).
Let's diying!
>>645
I thought you said "nice message" at first. At least I can give that for free, so here you go!
You are great! May the days bring you happiness and riches.
Plans for tonight: Amnesia and drawing. Not necessarily in that order.
>>650
Um, thanks.
What does everyone else have planned for the evening?
>>651
I'm marathoning Monster and trying to forget about all the things I have to do. Also eating a random stir-fry of chicken, potatoes and mizuna, the latter which I bought just because it was green and looked healthy (have no idea how it's going to taste.)
>>651
Reading, buying new drawing/writing pens, proceeding to use said pens.
>>651 I'm going to work for 12 hours. Of course, not all 12 of those hours will be in the evening. My shift will begin this afternoon and terminate in the wee hours of tomorrow.
>>646
You don't see an image of goatse on the goatse wikipedia page now do ya?
Why are people so fucking crass and tasteless as hell? I think this question to myself every day, when I leave for work.
>>655
Yes you do every so often, but it tends to get reverted.
>>655
They probably need to ask the guy's permission, then scale it for fair use.
>>643 how can i offer tracks for viptronic/dqn electronics albums?
I'd really love to go to a tea party with her. Shame about the whole "existing in separate dimensions" thing.
>>659
In the next relevant thread on here or SAoVQ just post a link to your track.

If I were born a penguin, I hope that I could be even a tenth as badass as this one.
Is that robot masturbating? Why would a robot need to masturbate? Why am I getting philosophical about this? Just unplug it...
I just pissed and it hurt real bad
The question thread has been a bit dull lately. If someone asks, "What do you think of cake?" don't answer with, "I don't know what that is," or just, "Yes," or whatever. Say something interesting! Tell us a cake-related anecdote, or all about your favourite cake! If the question doesn't pique your interest that much, why are you even responding?!
Sweden is a magical place...
Oh dear god not the spaceship not the spaceship I don't think I can take it oh god
If you laugh loudly and piercingly enough that it gives me a headache from all the way across the restaurant, then please shut the fuck up.
Yes, lady, I'm talking about you.
That doujinshi, where Tenchi starts to wank, then Washu brings him tissues.
Why do I keep reading it as "len"? It's obviously not "len".
The ending speech of Revenge of the Nerds is one of the most amazing moments in cinema history.
