Damn, these boys know so little about math, it's a wonder they are able
to make a game like Half-Life at all. BTW, I have a new name for VALVe:
MANCUNTe. I know it seems like I have too much time on my hands, but
you're right. I have lots of time, according to MANCUNTe. A quick
half-hour or so of Half-Life2 has taken well over an hour now, with
absolutely no game playing WHATSO-f.cking-EVER.

So, has the whining helped you at all?

... and also, (and ignoring how he missed the 's' off the end of
'maths') how did he get MANCUNTe from VALVe? I've been trying various
code-breaking patterns, but nothing leaps out. We wondered if there was
some hidden meaning in VA and LV, perhaps, but nada.

Perhaps it's a shortened version from MANChester UNiTed, but that seems
to be pushing it a bit, and even then it's hard to see where the VALVe
bit ties in...

Nope, completely baffled.

Usually around 1:00 am CST. The only reasn I posted these rants was that
it was taking way too long for Steam to let me get back to offline mode.
