So the place was under attack? Any virus threats? Is that...a thing? I'm not great with computers.

Not as far as I can tell, which is the weirdest part. Why bother redirecting people to a legitimate site? Normally if you hack the DNS like that, you'd use it for phsihing, or to redirect people to malware.

The way I got redirected to sparkpay.com and prompted to enter a username and password smacks of a hijack.

The username and password thing isn't important. All it means is that Sparkplay has their site set up so that you can't actually view it unless you've logged in (terrible site design, but not relevant to us). As far as I can tell, Sparkplay is a legitimate site. The big question is why someone wanted to redirect Tv Tropes to it.

Wait, no. The sparkpay thing was a borked fixing attempt.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

Wait, I entered my handle and password into that! Am I OK?

It migh do to change your password, just to be safe.

So, I asked a question minutes before everything got borked. It's on he last page. I hope you guys can take a quick look at it.

I don't want to point fingers, mostly because it's not one person. I just would like it if when people link to things tagged "questionable", that they tag their links as such.

Thank's a ton. I feel safe again.

Have a little fanfic reading from a Bioshock developer.

Oh, and do not approach the comments there.

This is what I did art wise today

◊. It's the wip unicorn doc, without his glasses...or horn. No idea why I gave him that smile. Needed to do drawing today...found out something very distressing. I'm also stuck uni wise too.

Pretty different from the some of the other Doc concepts, but the drawing itself is nice.

Doc looks good, Apple. He looks like he's up to something.

Sorry to hear about the stress.

Thanks guys. I'm still trying to get a good look to him obviously. Probably should have drawn his horn and glasses. But y'know, his original concept was devised before I (or rather, this thread) created the Lime Keys...and I can't help but wonder if I should be making a 'witch doctor' type now.

Didn't you originally come up with the name Lime Keys?

As for advice, I think the stretch mark above the grin is a little too big and off center.

Hey guys. How are things over here? And finally, the site's back up!

Hi dark. It seems the site had a DOS attack. Kudos to Fast Eddie for getting it running again relatively quickly.

By the way, does anyone have any advice on Psychonauts? I just don't see any way to proceed.

Edit: According to Strategy Wiki, you're supposed to double jump. Which I tried several times, but it wouldn't let me double jump there. Weird.
