Automata, Page Six

By Tycho – August 10, 2009

Page Six, which can be found here, completes the first chapter of Automata. The project itself directly expresses a fairly narrow band of the universe, hopefully enough to make you curious about the rest of it, and how this came to be the state of play.

1 vs 100

By Tycho – August 7, 2009

After we expressed some enthusiasm for the show recently, the people behind 1 vs 100 Live asked us if we wanted to come on there and co-host - and we did not deny them.  I'm about to jump in the car and head over there, and it seemed like a reminder might be in order.  The show starts at seven o'clock tonight, Pacific Standard Time.

Tekken Project

By Tycho – August 7, 2009

We did a six page Tekken piece, one that begins like this, and then - if you can believe it - becomes even more ridiculous.

Automata, Page Five

By Tycho – August 7, 2009

Page Five of Automata is here, followed by the final page (which we're thinking of calling "Page Six") on Monday.

1 vs. 100

By Gabe – August 5, 2009

This is just a quick note to say that Tycho and I will be guests on 1 vs. 100 this friday on Xbox Live. The "show" starts at 7:00 and we'll be there the entire time with the host Chris Cashman. There will be some PA related questions in the mix and you'll be able to call in and shoot us questions. 

This is great

A reader has taken the time to actually produce the above radio show. I thought he did an awesome job:

my D&D game

By Gabe – August 4, 2009

My D&D game last night was an epic one. I called it the season finale because it wrapped up a story-line that started on their very first encounter. They have also reached level 11 which is a major milestone and so I wanted the game to be especially dramatic. 

My Neo Geo for Child's Play

By Gabe – August 3, 2009

You might remember me talking about my Neo Geo Arcade machine here on the site a few times. I saved it from an arcade that was remodeling and fixed it up. It's been very good to me over the years, but it will not be making the trip over to our new office. Instead I have decided to auction it off for Child's Play. You can find the Auction here. You must be local and you must be able to come get it. Other than that, I only ask that you give her a good home, and treat her well. 

Automata, Page 3

By Tycho – August 3, 2009

Automata returns. Again! This series ends on Monday, if you were wondering - after which we will indulge in a full week of surprising (and inappropriate) Falcon Pawnches.

For Our Friends To The North

By Tycho – July 30, 2009

Because I'm on Popcap's mailing list (one of the few I tolerate, for reasons you will soon see) I had a chance to grab Bookworm Adventures 2 a little early.  That all happened here, so if you were a fan of the first one, maybe that will work for you?  Reviewing such a game is beyond worthless.  You either want to spell words or you don't, and if you do, a context where spelling is an act of almost barbaric aggression will appeal to you.

On Being A Language Foundry

By Tycho – July 29, 2009

My deepest fantasy is that, in my meanderings on this site, we will produce a piece of language that is useful to you.  Not a slogan; not a quip or a retort, though if we do happen to provide those I'm happy to be of service.  What I actually want to do is to create a useful linguistic tool that will improve your life, or has a life of its own, used over and over until the original source has been completely filed away.
