I am glad to hear that other people are suffering with the same problem. My son showed me two weeks ago mushrooms coming out of our dining room floor by our front wall of the house. We discovered that their is a crack in our stone. the crack is repaired by the mushroom has returned and is growing fast. We have only been in our new home 1yr 1/2. My son suffers from asthma. We will be bringing in the professionals and possibly getting a lawyer. This sound serious.

This morning I saw a little cluster of beige and gray mushrooms growing under the radiator in my living room. Since I have suffered from severe mycophobia (fear of fungus) since childhood, this was really distressing for me. I have scraped away the horrible things and cleaned the carpet with bleach, mold and mildew remover and salt. I'm drying out the area too. Anything else I can do to prevent this happening again? The mere sight of a mushroom makes me feel nauseous.

We found a mushroom growing out of the floor in the bathroom after some water damage occured. We plucked it out and I sprayed Lysol in the area and have not seen once since. This was a few days ago, so we are hoping it works, but the Lysol spray did say it kills mold, mildew, bacteria, and FUNGI. You never know.

Glad we are not alone!

Voting is for fuckheads. Just decide the winner of every election using rand(). Make sure its statistical properties are terrible.

heh well it's been months and my friend kristie still hasn't done shit about her tropical mold factory of a bathroom, soon the mold will grow into a new species, maybe even more advanced as humans like on the movie evolution. i shall go venture into her bahtroom soon, and take a picture to show what happens if you let this go on for months. =) unless maybe she has gotten it fixed, i hope so. i'll keep you all updated.

Thanks for checking! You should safely be able to use your choice of SDL.dll for the game; they are supposed to be totally binary compatible. (Note that the auto-update will overwrite it.) But I shouldn't downgrade the distribution because there have been a lot of other bug fixes.

Unfortunately the SDL changelog is not very thorough so it's hard to figure out what it might be and whether there might be a workaround...

Just an update here re slow animation. Tom mentioned that this probably was due to the SDL update. Today I went to the SDL web site to see if there were any older versions available, but there didn't seem to be. Then I realized that I actually had an older version of SDL.dll (which came with the Chip's Challenge "Tile World" emulator). This version was dated August 28, 2005 and is version 1.2.9. So anwway I swapped it in for the SDL.dll that was in the Escape directory and now the animation is faster again!

So it seems that the SDL upgrade was indeed the cause of the change.

Well, in my opinion once you've solved the level, go ahead and look at anyone else's speed runs to try to improve them! I think of the speedrunning as more of a collaborative effort, so peeking is not cheating there. =)

No no, it doesnt hang, and I think it behaves cleanly and good, when I'm not online. It just annoys a bit, when I accidantily hit the button, and then - I'm so easily seduced to cheat on the speedruns. ;)
 
5152. Tom 7 (gs82.sp.cs.cmu.edu) – 15 Nov 2006 12:40:32 UPD: Escape Beta 3 ]
wowei: Is the issue that you accidentally hit it? And then that it hangs because you don't have an internet connection? Because there's never any harm in downloading solutions (you can just delete them) and it shouldn't take that long...

the new bookmark-manager is a nice add-on and I like the optimization-option. but can you please add a dialogue there, when you hit "download solutions", that says "do you really wanna ..." instead of trying to download immediately. perhaps such a dialogue could also be suppressed with a new preferences-setting.

by the way, Tom, your machine ran out of diskspace again :-/

Yeah, I think turning up the sensitivity helps (you can do it in small increments as you adjust to it). Getting a good sensitive mouse will help even more.

I've been playing Quake 3 ever since it was released.

However, I am still not able to finsih Nightmare mode.

The question I have is...what kind of mouse sensitivity level are you guys using?....I use a low sensitivity....Even though I think that has a balance of both moving fast and aiming, I am wondering if using Higher sensitivity practice is better?

Let me know

Its amazing Quake 3 is still so popular...

Enjoy!

LizPf: Thanks! Rigidity isn't taken into account at all for the minor leagues filter. That's because, as you say, levels that aren't rigid or are rigid can still be good. (The same is true for difficulty, actually..)

For 2, I'm definitely working on that. It'll be good!

I've been thinking about ways for developers to include hints, but I do also like the idea of levels having no words in them at all, so, I'm not sure...

And, please do spread the word if you like the game! Thanks! =)

I'm fairly new here ... I've made a couple of puzzles so far -- maybe one of them will be able to stay in Triage :-)

A couple of things:

1. It looks like puzzles that get low ratings don't make the cut. But on the Rigidity scale, a puzzle can be good anywhere on the scale. And different people find different things lame ... I really, really don't like puzzles with unpredictable laser death, so I give those a 0.

2. I've read here about sub-grouping the Triage list ... please do! My preference would be for a group of good beginner puzzles, plus groups by type: Logic only -- no guessing required, lasers, robots, bombs, etc.

3. If possible, it would be nice for puzzle creators to include a hint with their puzzle, that players could choose to see -- or not. This would help us beginners who are lost, but not spoil the game for experts who don't want help.

Tom, thanks for making Escape, and continuing to support it. May I give you some publicity by mentioning Escape on some lists I belong to?
