soul skorpian.... set your priorities... do you want mind-numbing study for hours? or would you rather spend those hours gleefully stacking cubes of various sizes?

Notice how Otto stole the credit of the highest tower by putting 1 piece on top of my tower of nub.
Whenever I rotate pieces, they go lopsided making it nigh impossible for me to make towers <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Ok , got the thing to work thanks to a recent patch. Still , my framerate is butchered when special items are used in a crowded game...
The game is a bit too fast paced in standard mode , with only 5 seconds to place a block as the next one forces the drop... and thoses nigh uncontrollable special items wreaking havoc on either or both sides when not thrown outside the disk...
This game lags up for me after a few minutes of play time. I guess there are to many pieces for my computer to handle <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Me and a friend played two games for about...4 hours total, and neither game came to a conclusion. I nearly won one, but I zoned out and dropped a volcano at the base of my ubertower.
I alt-f4'd after I nearly cried from the destruction. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Looks fantastic. I'm not going to download it (now) because I'm up to my eyeballs in assignments, and I know I'd never stop playing it.

I will probably host a game later today, so if you want to play with me/us, find me in #naturalselection or #bontago on Gamesurge.
