Enterprising hackers have secured us a wireless internet connection for the LAN here. We do appreciate their efforts.

The Guy

By Tycho – August 14, 2002

You know, the con guy! With the thing! He has been found!

Hey!

By Tycho – August 14, 2002

The Matt (other, lesser Matts - beware) sends in this review of Danger's Hiptop. I, um... Yeah. I guess that's it.

Mein Birthday

By Tycho – August 14, 2002

Except for (perhaps) Jesus Christ, no birthday in history is accompanied by as much fanfare as Gabe's. He's incorrigible. It's fucking August, and already I can't wait for his special day to come and go, mostly go. We haven't decided whether this strip will inspire an ill-advised foray into treacherous Continuity, but I thought it proper to warn you in advance.

Okay

By Tycho – August 12, 2002

So, Oz is essentially a soap opera about domination, for men. It's great!

Lend Me Your Ears

By Tycho – August 12, 2002

It's like this. Batjew is in the process of losing his job. We need to find Batjew - a.k.a. Alexander Goldstein - some gainful employment, and we need to find it right away. At his current rate of Altoid consumption, we project that he will burn through his savings in two weeks, and that's where you come in. He's up in Vancouver, B.C., he has a host of IT skills, and he takes this sort of thing very seriously. If you need somebody in Vancouver, or you're in the market anywhere for a remote tech to telecommute, I think we may have your man. Check out the resume, drop him a line, and let's do this thing.

New fan art

I just finished some new Warcraft 3 fan art and though I’d share it with all of you. I do hope you enjoy it.

Skill Hack!

By Gabe – August 9, 2002

The two items that seemed to pop up this week in my mail over and over again were the sale of Vivendi's games division and the map hack for Warcraft 3. Many of you were upset that Blizzard seemed unwilling or unable to deal with the map hack. Just as I was starting to agree with you they came out and made an official announcement about it on Wednesday. Apparently anyone caught using the hack will have their CD key banned. I understand that all they would need to do is go out and purchase another copy of the game but I still think it's a good deterrent. I honestly don't know if I have ever played against someone using the hack. I'd like to think that my many losses could be attributed to some form of treachery by the other player rather than my own incompetence. Blizzard has asked that you send in any replays in which you feel like you may have been the victim of one of these unscrupulous cheaters. After careful study of my own library of replays I could find no evidence of a hack that turns off fog of war. However I did find something even more dangerous. There appears to be an even more prevalent hack that lets people utilize a highly streamlined build order, intelligent troop configurations and strategic hero management to totally destroy my puny forces. Blizzard really needs to do something about this if you ask me.

I'm Sorry

There are many things to discuss about today's strip.
