    Overzealous password checkers

    Okay, this always scares me when I see it. Why would they limit a password to X characters? If they're properly hashing and securing the password before storing it then limiting length doesn't serve any purpose, right? The only reason I can see why they would put a size limit on passwords is if...

    Share your internet nostalgia!

    Now those were fun times, I actually had a paid account on Adventure Quest (well, I suppose technically I still do, seeing as it was a one-time payment kind of thing). I must have wasted hundreds of hours playing those games, life was so much simpler back then (for starters, I had hundreds of...

    The broken rules of video gaming...

    If you don't like the Kongregate chat just turn it off (either by leaving the chat room or by switching from the "chat" tab to another one, like "game" or "achievement"). Now, having no mute button can't really be excused, but you could still mute your browser's sound via Volume Mixer (or your...

    If you could have one question answered?

    The answer is 42, but what is the question to life, the universe and everything?

    weird things about you, that no one would notice, unless you told them

    My knee makes a weird sound when I bend it, and my back's curved inwards quite a bit more than is usual. The former isn't even noticeable when there are any other noises in the room, and though I'm above average, I'm not tall enough to experience major discomfort from the latter (unlike my dad)...

    Poll: Time Travel or FTL Travel?

    To all those people saying we'll get FTL eventually, sorry to break it to you, but that's just impossible. You need an infinite amount of energy to just reach light speed, let alone surpass it. What is possible though, thanks to quantum physics, is distorting time-space, creating a "bubble" of...

    Old but gold - what are you playing?

    I recently picked up Baldur's Gate 2 and Planescape: Torment on GOG.com, I heard a lot of good things about those games, but I've never gotten around to playing them until now (loving them both, though I do wish the camera in Torment would just zoom out a little bit, it feels rather cramped).

    riddle me this

    Bacon, obviously. "Man's creator": you're not a man until you've had bacon. "Greatest asset": Need I really explain? "Ultimate weakness": You know you can't resist.

    Your Flaws

    Let's see, procrastinating, lazy, paranoid, rather competitive and I should probably be a little more thoughtful about what I eat. I tend to hide my emotions, even when I'm feeling fairly down or am really bothered/hurt/worried about something, I still act like a happy-go-lucky fellow. Though...

    The zombie apocalypse has just hit, where do you go?

    Let's see, I live a fair ways from the nearest city, and that one's not even a big city at all (sadly enough). We have one room that is completely defenceless, because of the presence of several double-door-sized windows, though we could barricade the doors (which open into the room, so if the...

    Plot twists and big reveals you solved by yourself

    I meant the scene where (enormously massive spoilers ahead, if you haven't seen Fight Club yet, do so first.)

    Plot twists and big reveals you solved by yourself

    First one that springs to mind: There were others, but can't really remember them all right now. Oh wait, there was this one movie (can't remember the name, it wasn't any good anyway) But yeah, my paranoia leads me to always question every action anyone takes, so I'm usually good at...

    Can you beat him? Akinator Web game

    Haha, he did not know Shirō Ishii, a scientist/general from Unit 731, the Japanese biological warfare unit from WW2 that experimented with cholera, anthrax, plague etc. on occupied Chinese populations and POWs. I win! Edit: Ok, so now he guessed him right away. Damn he learns fast.

    Can you beat him? Akinator Web game

    It even got Caius Cossades and Deep Thought. This thing has really gotten better since last time.
