  private parts

talking with private parts, a scene coder currently with twilight and hype.. here it is, complete with spelling mistakes!

Session Start: Wed Jan 01 20:56:36 1997

dangermouse: yeah.. okies.. i must warn you our page is pretty damn offbeat - so the questions are pretty funky..
pparts: well whats it for? cause im a coder :)
dangermouse: scene related web page - acheron.. pretty funky..

dangermouse: question #1: what the fuck are you doing on irc at 5:57am?
pparts: yeah i been up for like 20hrs.
dangermouse: hehe.. cool.. i got home at 3:30am.. phew..
pparts: shit..

dangermouse: hmm.. do much coding for twilight/hype? like ansi viewers.. etc
pparts: well im doing there montly emag.. well twilights distorted emag.
dangermouse: any truth to that rumor that acid!ansi and twilight are merging?
pparts: nope..
pparts: acid!ansi is small,. but getting bigger with some great members.
dangermouse: oh well.. fair enuf.. umm.. what do ya code in..
pparts: pascal and assembly.
dangermouse: i have a friend who codes in that.. hmm.. what's your general view on the global coding/demo scene.. sorry to see future crew and trinton move on to diff. things?
dangermouse: well.. better things i should say..

it was right about here that pparts said something about the whole scene always needs coders - appgens to websites.. obviously my log buggered up and didn't catch it!

dangermouse: tried ya hand at a bit of Java yet?
pparts: nope, i dont do any of that stuff neither the html. im not really into it but i plan too cause i wanna setup my own webpage.
dangermouse: ahh.. that's the thing of the moment.. every tom, dick and hairy seems to be on the bandwagon.. hell, i most certainly am..
pparts: haha yep.
dangermouse: what else do you do with yourself.. what's your age? etc..
pparts: im 18, right now its winter hah, i skateboard, but i cant now.. i live in massachussettes(bad spelling).
dangermouse: i don't think even the ppl that live there can spell it.. ;) i know shit about the global coding scene at the moment... is it alive and kicking?

again he said something about it was pretty much normal, nothing much happening.. my fucked up log stuffed up again!

dangermouse: oh come on.. there must be something happening..
pparts: i have just been spending alot(probally too much) time on chalkboard its my new ansieditor.
pparts: it's awsome with how much is done so far.
dangermouse: ah a project in the works.. make sure to send me a copy of the finished version..
pparts: yep,. im gonna make it so people have to pay to register it but i feel odd, because i never paid for anything i cant picture others paying for it.
dangermouse: they won't - i wouldn't.. seriously.. i'd just go back to using aciddraw..
pparts: ermm you have to register that too :)
dangermouse: you do? since when?
pparts: always, it enables a fewthings..
pparts: its all in the doc's..
pparts: along with thedraw/artworx all of em :)
dangermouse: oh well.. :) just shows that i never look at the dox.. ;)

dangermouse: silly question time ;) don't you find coding boring seriouly.. i took IPT at my school.. it was too fucking stressful when the bastard doesn't want to work!

Session Closed at Wed Jan 01 21:19:26 1997 because i stuffed up and quit mIRC completely .. woopsy..

Session RE-Started at Wed Jan 01 21:20:44 1997 because i woke up to myself, and loaded up mIRC again..

pparts: ?hmm.?

private parts was wondering what the hell had just happened..

dangermouse: yeah.. accidently quit mirc ;) woops.. like the dickhead i am.. yeah.. the last question, did ya get it?
pparts: hehe..
dangermouse: get the last question?
pparts: nope i didnt see it.
dangermouse: okies..

dangermouse: silly question time ;) don't you find coding boring seriouly.. i took IPT at my school.. it was too fucking stressful when the bastard doesn't want to work!
dangermouse: get it ?
pparts: yep i got that one. you didnt see answer?
dangermouse: nope.. :(
pparts: yeah, i was working on chalkboard(ansieditor) for 2 fucking hours to fix one MAJOR problem. my head was spinning.. it drove me nutz. and all the time i put in.
dangermouse: so admit.. it is fucking boring.. but i spose the end result is satisfying..
pparts: ohh yeah, it is boring but its only boring when you CANT do something, other wise its not that bad. and my end results are always great.
dangermouse: so you're good eh? how good? best in twilight.. best in scene? ;) remember this is LIVE..
pparts: nah.
pparts: but i can get done just about anything that i want to if i put the time and effort into it, it'll comeout the way it was expected.
dangermouse: modest? no really..
pparts: huh?
dangermouse: don't worry.. didn't catch the last reply..
pparts: so whats your website anyhow?
dangermouse: acheron.. i'll give you the url when it's fully up

pparts: nope, its like 6:31am, im about to crackup i been up for 21+ hours.. ugh
pparts: okay..

i know what we was going through, i had also gotten back at a ludicres time in the early, very early hours of the morning from my new-years celebrations, which weren't all that hot anyways..

dangermouse: i've run out of crap ass questions to ask ya.. oh hang on here's one .. got a dog? if so what's it's name.. a sister perhaps? a g/f?
pparts: dog, no. sister yeah a bitch but arent all sisters bitches? girlfriend nah, im failing college i gotta bringup the grades then have fun :)
dangermouse: hehe.. i'm looking foward to university.. over here in oz mate.. phew.. hubba hubba.. the chicks... ;)
pparts: emm. but its my life im fucking with so i gotta bring up the grades cause no chick gonna be wif me forever.
dangermouse: good point.. what you studying?
pparts: data processing its computer programming.. visual c and a bunch of unneeded crap.
dangermouse: hehe.. sounds like the Information Technology course i might be doing.. but hey, a job in this kinda field pulls in the bucks..
pparts: yeah no shit! i loveit.
dangermouse: mmm.. the money makes it worthwhile.. plus the satisfaction of creating something ;)
pparts: yeah and its something i enjoy, cant beat that , thats why i gotta do good ya know fuck the chicks for now. :)
dangermouse: if you want to fuck em.. free sex, no commitment ;).. nah, seriously.. that's another thing.. the coding scene in a major way opens up new horizons to budding future crews out there.. i mean, would you have been were you are today without the global scene?
pparts: no, i learned alot by whats around me..
dangermouse: i firmly believe that the coding scene is still an influence to many coders, maybe to go on the better things.. look at future crew and triton - now they're producing kickass commerial games..
pparts: emm it is cool. i wanna do a cool game sometime. but THAT takes alot of time.
dangermouse: yeah well, i'd say it'd be a full job for fc and triton now.. the scene was once they're audience.. just think, if it hadn't been there, would they be were they are today?
pparts: haha, a bunch of shit.
dangermouse: yeah whatever.. don't share my views then.. but i reackon it's right though :~(
pparts: emm,.

i thought it was a good theory :)

dangermouse: oh well... i've just about died twice over from new years... anything else you can think of commenting on?
pparts: how about how i feel the entire ansi/ascii scene will turn out within the next few years ?
dangermouse: sounds about right to me.. with the emergence of more web based sites/(even bbs') it wouldn't suprise me.. hell, it'd mean my extinction.. <cringe>
pparts: well i've noticed that boards are going down very quickly because EVERYONE spends all their time on the net.. and why wouldnt they? the net is everything. you can chat with millions of other people. you can get files just about as fast as you can ask for them.
pparts: everything is done on the internet rather the bbs scene. also because EVERYONE can keep in touch alot easier. no EXPENSIVE bill's etc..
dangermouse: yeah.. but ansi might live on in vaine just as an artform - hell it's sort of like literature in a sense.. ppl do it for the shear joy of doing it.. like your coding :)
pparts: i dunno, i dont think it will. but VGA will get real big because of the web pages and shit ya know?,.
pparts: im sure it'll turnout like this.
dangermouse: yeah.. i might have to turn my hand to hi-rez :( oh well, you're right, it's enevitible..
dangermouse: (wrong spelling)
dangermouse: our bbs was acheron - a kickass ACiD aussie hq, virus trashed us.. and hey presto next thing, we're web based..
pparts: yep.
dangermouse: we saw that it just wasn't worth putting it up again.. considering that on pertange wise (per population) more australians are on the net than americans i think! that's a few..

my piece of bullshit statistics that i've acutually heard somewhere believe it or not..

dangermouse: hello..
pparts: haha, yep. and noone calls boards no more.. bah
pparts: yep
pparts: hehe, and with a web bbs you have callers all over the WORLD!#% rather then in your city/town/penincilua or whateve r:)
dangermouse: :).. another reason we did it..
dangermouse: anyways..
dangermouse: thanks for talking with me in your unconcsious state of drunkedness..
pparts: hehe, thanks. np. i'll ttyl or in #ansis or something.
dangermouse: yeah.. bi bi
