OK, Let's Try This Again
Once again I fail to post in my blog for a significant amount of time. New year's resolution: post in this blog at least once every two weeks. As for some of what happened in the 1.5 years I didn't post:

10 days since last post. Must post more often!
I figured not too much has happened over the last 10 days, but it turns out I have a good bit to write about. I really should get myself to post more often.
The earthquake last week didn't do much here. I didn't even realize it was an earthquake until about half a minute in. At first I thought that the people in the apartment above us might've been doing something weird, and after a little while, I thought perhaps there was some construction going outside or something, which in retrospect doesn't make too much sense.
TehSkeen is hosting a Wii coding competition, which sounds interesting. Perhaps I should try it. I'll most likely make a game, if anything; I just need to think of a good idea for one. I already have some experience coding for the Wii with the MegaZeux port.
Speaking of which, I'm planning to do a little work on modifying the Wii port of MegaZeux to run on the GameCube as well. Pretty much the only stuff I have to take care of is some Wii-specific input code and build scripts. The libogg/libvorbis libraries are pretty much platform agnostic and libfat has GameCube and Wii versions included already. I don't have a GameCube though, so the only way to test it is to make sure it compiles for the GameCube and that it runs on the Wii when compiled for it.
The results are out for the Summer 2008 DualStream Day of Zeux, and our team got 4th place! Granted, the turnout this DoZ wasn't very good, but still! It's the highest-scoring entry I/we've made so far:
Quasar also judged the games as backup judge, though his scores ended up being unused. The "purple octopus" is actually Space Bunny, who made its first appearance in A Space Exploration Game of Some Sort as a sort of easter egg (in the ship selection screen, go to the rocket/missile thing and press up.) Also, I'm kinda surprised I managed to trick at least 3 people (Malwyn, Quasar, and Insidious?) on the "Don't Touch!" microgame with the "Save The World" button.
I'll be going back to class August 25th, and I'll end up going to class at 7:30 AM, since the ONLY Computer Science 2 class being taught this semester starts at that time. I'll also be taking English 1A and Psychology 5; we'll see how that goes.
For the radio club, I'm going to be working on getting an Internet radio system set up, with automatic dead-air detection and stuff like that. Hopefully I'll get that done by the beginning of the semester.
