The villain is still called Odlaw though which doesn't make any sense

quote:

His name "Odlaw" is simply a reversal of "Waldo" from the American editions, although he is still called "Odlaw" in the United Kingdom as well. In the reboot, he is reimagined as Odlulu, a misunderstood pre teen female Anti-Wanderer designed as a fusion between Wenda, Wilma, and Odlaw's traditional designs. She sports a yellow baseball cap with black stripes and glasses with angular black frames, and shoulder-length black hair with a yellow streak. She wears a long-sleeved black and yellow top, and a yellow skirt, knee-high black socks with white cuffs and blue shoes.
lmao what the gently caress, there was a reboot?

Oh for sure. The Waldo canon got super impenetrable after a while if you didn't keep up with the movies.
Listen, I'm on board for Carmen Sandiego movies but what the gently caress is a Where's Waldo/Wally movie?

"The elusive trouble-maker is up to his regular tricks as everyone from his landlord to the FBI searches for him-in this hyper-realistic portrayal of Where's Waldo."

what the gently caress!?

Since when was Waldo a trouble-maker, he's just there somewhere!

/e oh that's for a 5 minute 2016 short starring recently notable rear end in a top hat Flash actor Ezra Miller as a detective I guess

I'm only more confused tbh

The harshness in the aughts is what got us here and/or kept us here still posting on a dead gay comedy forum because just about everywhere else on the internet has been a loving trash fire for at least a decade.

And this thread is an edifice to that.

You'll be murdered for this the instant you set foot in Scotland. Not for suggesting that they're all drunks, for calling it "whiskey". Whiskey is an American beverage made from dogpiss and stewed in a dead tramp's asscrack, sometimes for as long as five minutes. The water of life made with love and care to a centuries old recipe with fine Scottish spring water and grains is whisky.
The malt for Scotch Whisky is literally toasted over swamp solids, they should probably chill about it tbh

Always been kinda curious how the Scots feel about Sexton, which is basically an Irish Scotch

I have legit Dyscalculia and once asked a math question somewhere on here and got probed for asking for homework help when all I was doing was being all autistic about the disorder that caused the Dyscalculia. The info that I based my question on is severely discredited now, so long term? I got a useless answer and a probe. No judgement, no regrets.

I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I also suck at math.

In order to get an EDS diagnosis, you need to have 2 or more broken things from a group of 6 genes and 3 enzymes.

How many variations are possible?

Anaconda Rifle posted:

Assuming it doesn't matter if you have 2 broken enzymes or 2 broken genes or one of each, it would be 9 choose 2 + 9 choose 3 + ... + 9 choose 9.

Did the same with Bungie's map editor for Marathon; it was really neat figuring out how to get rooms connected

There was a really interesting Duke3d map that was four square rooms that "overlapped" and a square loop around them that connected to each room via one side, so as you ran around the loop you'd have access to a different room depending on which side of the square you were on

It might have been even more complex where each square also had an exit on each side, so there were four "loops" on the outside? Think the corners had teleporters too. It was wild

I mostly just did it irl instead

In my late teens I got into airsoft and we mostly played in a building that was once a school -- two stories all set up in a line with stairs at either end and a huge staircase in the middle. We usually played as teams starting on each side of the bottom floor, and The Matrix had recently come out, so I invested in knee pads and got very okay at sliding around corners and sliding to the corner of the top landing in the middle with a pair of MP5Ks at the ready

Yes, black combat boots and urban camo cargo pants were involved, why do you ask?

This was definitely in the Marathon maps too. They called it '5D space'. I used to make impossible maps like that for PvP arenas.
Was it 5D? I'd have figured 4D. Still, it was fuckin fascinating and yeah, the Duke3d one I'm remembering was 100% excellent for deathmatching though appropriately enough the most players I ever played it with was four
