Weird

You know, for having not posted for a month, my hit counter sure is high. I guess google seems to like me. Well, I am on the first page for "spore crash", "lire...fail" and "intel robot battle", which must be helping a lot.

Parts Update!

The parts arrived today. Ok, they arrived the day this post is set for, and I'm retconing them from the future. Still, they arrived.

Well, That Was Weird.

Whatever that computer problem I had yesterday was, it's gone now. I still have no idea what it was.

Will Spore Crash YouTube?

I want to make a prediction. YouTube will go down soon after July 17, the day that the Spore Creature Creator is released. Think about it. At least a million people will either download or buy it. One of its feature is uploading videos of your creature to YouTube. Most people will only do one short video, but I'm sure a small segment of the userbase will make hundreds of long videos. This is a ton of traffic, even without people watching all the uploaded videos. YouTube is already very, very popular, and the combined traffic will definitely not work in its favor.

Martian Conspiracy!

Looking at the new photos from Mars, one oddly sticks out. This one:

It's very clearly a square on the Martian surface. Mars is the 4th planet, and a square has 4 sides. A coincidence? At first, yes, but then we can look at this:

It's a picture of the hexagonal clouds on Saturn. Saturn is the 6th planet, and a hexagon has 6 sides. I think the only way to solve this mystery is to go look at the other planets.
