Blah-de-blum
New beta is out, with the weapons now restricted, game mode options in the prefs.cs file (trust me that helps), and a new game mode called Golden Sword.. which I’m sure Paul will be unhappy with me for having done.
In Golden Sword one player is “it”, and has a big, fast, one-hit-kill sword. Everyone else must try to beat him, and whoever does becomes the Golden Sword-holder. Pretty simple, but I reckon pretty fun too. Took an hour or so to do, I think it’s a nice addition to the DT game-mode canon.
Jimmeh and Zamez have very kindly installed the beta of phpBB3 for our forums. We’re hoping that the spam-control on these ones will actually work, and that we can get them to look nice enough that they don’t bring down the rest of the site. If not, we may have to pay for vbulleting or something.
Watched the NFL draft with Tom yesterday. Just a great thing to have on in the background while you drink several bottles of Vermouth. I’ll probably need to get onto the localization stuff this week, which is a bit boring, but has to be done…

You know what?
I just LOVE juggernaut in Halo. And that is like Golden Sword, as you already MUST know.
So I guess I love this game mode too! \o/

“..I’m sure Paul will be unhappy with me for having done…”
We’re going to instigate a, “You Make It / You Test It / You Explain Why It Breaks the Next Update” policy on new game modes. Just like the US government. Or something.
New game modes FTW, though.
Well done Omroth + Zamez + Jimmeh on improving the forums – it’s looking a LOT better. Hopefully anti-spam will be more efficient…

the possibilities for ownage are literally off the scale. I demand a game later today.
