Re: Post Race!
"Rubber duck[/chicken] races, also known as derby duck races, have been used as a method of fundraising for organizations worldwide. People donate money to the organization by sponsoring a duck. At the end of the fundraising drive, all of the ducks are dumped into a waterway, with the first to float past the finish line winning a prize for its sponsor."
In the U.K "Each year, on Easter Monday, a duck race is organised in Glenridding by the local mountain rescue team to raise funds."
In the U.S "The annual Aspen Ducky Derby was first run by the Rotary Club of Aspen, Colorado in 1991. The derby now features 30,000 ducks and takes place each August in Aspen's Rio Grande Park. Through its past 20 years, the Aspen Ducky Derby has raised more than $2.3 million to benefit 65 nonprofit groups."

The only way for this race to be run is if people quit talking. Even Niya realizes that this is not a crown to be won lightly. Barrk paid for that prize.

Well if your posts only contain a picture and the picture is removed then there is a chance the post will be automatically cleaned and removed from the system, if not now, it could even be done at some point in the future...

Although there is a lot of funny artwork released and linked to rule 34, the problem I have is the second part of the rule -> that there are no limits and no exceptions

Seriously ? Come on Shaggy, you must have had a childhood. I'm sure everyone who was around computers during the late 80s to 90s played Golden Axe. If you didn't, you were never a child I'd excuse you if you at least played Prince of Persia.

I did play Prince of Persia, and was quite good at it, but have never even heard of Golden Axe. Perhaps it depends on the exact year, though. I didn't get my own computer until 1990 (I think), and had access to some strange machines before then, which didn't necessarily play games (DEC Rainbow). Even then I got into the early RPG games largely to the exclusion of all else.
By the way, I don't do graphics unless I absolutely have to, because I suck at it. I have to keep to some VERY simple stuff. DDay uses XNA for graphics, I used it to draw controls in a business app.

That's really strange. Golden Axe came out in '89 and its real odd you never came across it. Must have played that like 100 times in my youth. Even up to yesterday I played Golden Axe 3 on a Sega Genesis Emulator.

Re: Post Race!
Right. A game from 89 would be barely playable. I'm currently playing the Lazarus remake of Ultima V. I tried Ultima V, which I was playing in college, and the graphics were kind of rough. The Lazarus remake puts the game into the Dungeon Seige I game engine, which gives it much better graphics.
