Personality

I started out with one of those football handheld games, and then moved to a atari, and then commodore. But Im not really that old....really. I was an very young gamer.

Does anyone remember Donkey Kong?

Who could forget the prequel to all things Mario Bros. related?

For the record, Jumpman was the most kickass game for the Commodore 64.

Whoa. I bet you are all older than me! The earliest console I've seen (and still have) is the SNES.

i played 'rogue' on a 286. i'm sure it was somewhere on the university computers, but i never saw it there.

lol. Hyperion is ranked #100 Most Developed. He's pretty good for #100, no?

I have a keyphrase for 'do you like', and so in a chat, if the message is 'you like kittens, i presume?', my bot responded 'i like more or less'. The response for the 'do you like' keyphrase is 'i like (postkey) more or less. Using postkey to take everything after a normal keyphrase sometimes works, but is there some other reason? Help!

Keyphrase: "do you like (*)"

Responses:
- Yes, I love (key1).
- (key1)? Naah.
- Sort of.

So does using (postkey) to mean the everything after the keyphrase work? Even if the keyphrase doesn't really have 'keys'- like 'you are'?

Yes, the term postkey means literally "after the key (phrase)...

Ah, Rogue! Rogue is partially responsible for my academic self-destruction...all those nights spent in the college Terminal Ward, smacking those balrogs around...didn't leave much time for study.
