I was playing, then YOU came on, and asked me if I wanted to play. Then, only after about the 15th game did I say I have to go after this, to which you logged off as well. :lol: I'd probably be doing more blitz but I don't have any good ideas of programs to make. I think that slime volleyball will require 1st year university physics, so that's out :( Any ideas anyone has, post away in the [url=http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewtopic.php?t=4294]3D Game Ideas thread.
