  1. And I would say wrong section too... Show off? Wasn't it more a search for a partnership? Which would be a fail as it doesn't follow the rules of that section...
  2. Well I doubt you can't do anything as Romania is part of the EU and therefore it must follow the EU laws and for example the copyright laws ;) Yet it could be harder for US people to act than in other EU countries, that can well be.
  3. Very nice template Peter. I do really like it. However I can't currently use it myself.
  4. sell it to apple, as they have all sort sort of iStupidity, one more should be interesting for them.
  5. doctor: somebody overplayed which rarely help as much as he should and gather anyhow too much trust.
  6. oops sorry didn't saw... will try to do better next time! I promise!
  7. nose - something which is too often too long and some times leaks
  8. Well odd of how some stuff come back... xHTML => dead, TAG can be upper or lower case etc...
  9. Sorry but I didn't asked for which platform/framework is more cross platform, but which one you find best. And even if I would tend to agree that JS take the lead for the compatibility, I still think it's not a very good one to develop on.
  10. Well, many people come from google by typing the name of the game... so if we remove those, I would say in my case most people come to the game linked from some other pages like game directories or review sites. Google is really a very small portion. I would not count on google for such site. Maybe when you start to be highly visible like wikipedia it changes, until then... google is one way to reach you but by far not the most common.
  11. It is not because you already have the tools under that it is not a framework. For me JS / HTML / CSS is a framework... As it contains all the tools to run your script.
  12. I tried Google, and basically had yes a lot of visits but a lot of lost visits which means people which didn't even want to try the game. Which ended up to about paying 5$ per registrations (which is a normal price for Google advert) against a 50 cents for game oriented networks. But please do whatever you think is best ;)
  13. Well the advantage of HTML / JS is that you don't need any other plugin. However, honestly, it is one of the worse solution as a developer point of view. Browser compatibility is one thing (yes JQuery or other may help), but you have the limit of the language, dom, speed concerns and much much more. That's why myself I'm developing my new game with Silverlight and not with JS.
  14. You have exactly the same issue in your own country. Even if you have a valid contract you will have some expenses (at least at first) to start the whole law machine. So a contract is many times just a... safe guard. But for a web game which hardly make 100$ a month (not talking about mine mind you, but this is a reality for most), it is a non sense to think about such issues.
  15. Yes, I give a reward, but people first of all have no clues how to advert and also are not always aware of the possibility of getting such reward (even if it is explained in multiple areas). Many many ways to advert a game, and the best results remains: advert on other games or other game based websites.
  16. RIA (Rich Internet Application) are the solution when HTML alone doesn't do what you need. Now I must admit there is more RIA solutions that I would even like to see and some are better than others. Most RIA requires a plugin of some sort and I'm sure you know quiet a few of them already! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rich_Internet_application_frameworks So let's focus on the most known:
  17. Word of mouth and referrals counts for very little in new registrations, and I have the stats to say so ;)
  18. A contract is a contract in any country. Yet in case of conflicts you must use the justice and using a foreign country justice can be both expensive and complex.
  19. top -n for sure yacc or bison? (I know it's a bit of a geek level)
  20. Interesting, even if I doubt I will use such tool to create games myself.
  21. I hardly believe that a programmer can be bad at math, or maybe he/she is picking the wrong job!
  22. sprintf can be avoided in nearly all PHP code specially if you use it to sanitize parameters for SQL queries. Use it purely to format things which needs to be stored in strings, like for reports. For other needs you should use other means.
  23. well a relatively easy fix would be change the keys and add a "whitelist" of all the past published disks as sony do know which disk it is. Don't know how big the DB would be but maybe not too big and could fit inside their "os".
  24. well, math are a huge subject, but when related to games they are extremely useful and needed. So I would maybe dig a bit more and show what you can do with math... like 2D games and more.
  25. Good start! Please develop!
