Hello World

          Oooh, are we back?
          It's been a while, hasn't it.

          I guess I was more worn out than I thought I was.
          No matter, we're back on track now, and all the
          little cogs are getting slotted into place.
          Wed.Worklog's done, Newsletter's a WIP, and there's
          still AGameAWeek to write.
          .. I'm quite busy when I'm not being lazy!

     In the Shoutbox..
          Lots of random links, and DD's Quby language.

     In the Mudchat..
          Cheap Servers and Dynamite! Which is Better?!!

Last Month

     Things That Got Done

          New Logo
          New Language
          New Gui
          New School Stuff
          New Drawings
          and much much more.

          Go take a peek, and let us know what you've been up
          to since the last newsletter
socoder.net/?topic=2110

Read Post$


          Until I get back on track, here's a random
          selection of posts that have been made over the
          past few weeks!


New name

          Waroffice needs a shorter domain name. Help him
          pick something.
socoder.net/?topic=2109

Stringy Thing

          Meanwhile, he's also having an issue with a String.
           See if you can fathom a way to chop it up.
socoder.net/?topic=2112

The Free Motherboards

          It's been so long.. I can't remember if I
          previously mentioned this! No matter, the free
          motherboards are being sent out, and we're all
          waiting for the first person to post a massive blog
          entry about it!
socoder.net/?topic=2093

WHY?

          A discussion about where the newsletter went, and
          how people could help, by submitting things that
          could be put into the newsletter.
socoder.net/?topic=2107

Goto Links


NetBoot

          A supersmall Linux distrib that boots from a teensy
          file, and downloads the rest.
          God bless Broadband!
socoder.net/?link=24326

Trimming the Fat

          Hoboben found a lovely script that flicks through
          sourcecode, and gets rid of all the comments.
          Handy, if you don't want to be filling your 3.5"
          floppy with half-a-dozen copies of the same 15
          lines full of asterisks, that your IDE seems to
          plonk at the top of every single bloody file it
          makes.
socoder.net/?link=24477

Syntax Error


Tilemaps

          Tilemaps are annoying folk again!
socoder.net/?blogs=24482

Monitor GETS!

          Afr0 finds a monitor!
socoder.net/?blogs=24505

Repeat:Until GameOver


          I've changed the style of the game section a
          little. (Again!)
          From now on, only one game from each of our leechy
          sites. If you want more, head to the sites!
