I won't have access to the computer for six months. Goodbye forever, as I will have forgotten about this, Minecraft, and all other computer programs by the time the six months are over.

Hmm...

Hamster suggested it since she said that she had experienced it before. And that she said I need a life elsewhere.

Darvince · « **Reply #16 on:** March 06, 2011, 04:20:10 PM »

This will be a very boring six months. I have 7 hours left, and I will spend them in the hope that I will actually remember what the word 'pwnage' means on my calendar until September.

That is just awesome. Why don't you write "can get back on computer, universe sandbox, minecraft"

I probably won't know how to use a computer very well by then. I'll probably be back to hunt 'n' peck again. >.>

I'm sorry to hear that.

Try and look at it as an opportunity to try lots of stuff that you wouldn't have otherwise.

Look forward to your return.

Cheers.

What's your huge project? Or what is blanaxon?

I shall expand. More. And faster.

I've been working on this for five years. You can't do this in half a year. This is epical evilness.

Blaland.

I look forward to seeing the project. I'm sorry to hear you're leaving. But there's no reason not to mark the forums etc. at least. You won't forget how to use a computer, and even if you did, of course you could still learn it again. But since you'll be showing your project, that must mean you'll come back.

I can do eet. *devotes entire summer to drawing it*

However, I'll probably sneak in really late or early some days.

*Gives up educashun entirely and devotes rest of life to drawing it.*

Darvince · « **Reply #23 on:** March 06, 2011, 11:13:27 PM »

Oh my. You're getting faster. Eepybird.

I could do more than one page per day, if I really want to do it.

It takes me about two hours to make one paper.

That comes out to be about 900 pages if I get really devoted to the project, and I make them slightly closer to ground level than yours, Bla. So there's an unfair advantage at how fast you can draw an entire city versus me.

Good luck on your project and we'll miss you for some time.

Apparently, I typed this late at night...

Darvince · « **Reply #25 on:** March 06, 2011, 11:56:42 PM »

I bookmarked every section and the forum itself, so I hope I'll remember what those bookmarks mean on 9/7/11.

Dan Dixon · « **Reply #26 on:** March 07, 2011, 02:35:41 AM »

You'll have a unique perspective from your friends and family. You'll have many new experiences and feelings that you wouldn't have had otherwise; lots of offline experiences.

I didn't have the internet growing up, but I did have a computer for most of it.

And I remember being banned from television (when I didn't have a computer) and from the computer (they hid all the keyboards in the house).

You'll get through it and be better for it.

You might find keeping a journal (a.k.a.: offline blog for yourself) useful, or at least as interesting reference.

What about drawing some planetary textures, Darvince, or... I guess he has already been forbidden to use his computer by now...
Dang, I really need to solve this problem. I can't have people taking my life project idea and making a bigger version than me.
But, I hope he can imagine what 900 papers will fill on a computer. My file was about 2 GB and took many minutes to load on my very good computer. Reduced to about 700 MB by making it greyscale, so now I can even load it in 30 seconds. But connecting them, redrawing what couldn't be scanned was horrible. That alone took me from April to August last year or something.
You can't do this, Darvince.
This is cheating. He has less homework than me.

Maybe I could make a secret plan of EPIC EVILNESS... I expand my city rapidly so it covers ALL of the image, and continue the drawing on papers at high school in the breaks, like I did at school originally. MUHAHAHA no.

I just guess this means no more Minecraft, SimCity 4, Google SketchUp...

atomic7732 · « **Reply #28 on:** March 07, 2011, 07:28:44 AM »

You could go to Tempe and ask around for Darvince?

~~I should call the Extraordinary League of Reason Secret Atheist World Domination Network at the Core of Earth, and ask them to take over Earth before September 7~~---Uuh nothing.
