Ultimate Strife
Progress so far is running along quite smoothly. Not only has programming been started but I decided I'd clean up the code a bit since after roughly 4 years, it's gotten quite messy. With the change to the attacking system comes the exclusion of a few older features that may have been underused and/or clunky (teleporting, summoning, etc) and the addition of a few other features (new AI again yay..) as well as a change in interface and such as needed.
Keep in mind, that most of this hasn't been done yet but I expect and plan to complete all this (and more!) in the future. Just maybe publicly declaring my little plan of action can keep me consistently focused for a bit and help me maintain my word.
Now I can't promise that all this will be done swiftly not knowing what life entails but I can at least assure that a newly playable version may be up soon, within a month at the most.

Ultimate Strife
Yet another (and hopefully the LAST) redesign of the battle system. This very well could shape up to be drastically different compared to previous systems but it's still a work in progress in the planning stage as of now.

Third Party Router Firmware
I was just wondering did anyone else here use some third party firmware for their routers and if so which one? Does it seem to be worth it? Since my router conveniently started losing connection repeatedly on a daily basis shortly after my warranty ran out, I've considered using one. My router in question is the Linksys WRT310N and I'm checking out DD WRT with a bit of confusion at the moment but I'm still doing a bit of research before I even think about attempting it. While it is VERY annoying having your connection randomly dropped and spending hours trying to reconnect for more than a few seconds practically every day, I guess that's still better than stable dialup or even nothing at all..

Hosting Irregularities..
For some reason when I host my own games using either dream seeker or dream daemon, the info of it being Live won't appear on my page yet when I host another game such as Seika, GTA online, or etc it does show said info. Anybody know what's up with this?
I'm pretty sure the games are actually joinable since Dream Daemon says its reachable (nice feature I might add) but it seems kinda odd for just my own games to appear invisible, even after an extended waiting period.
Games in question are
Gone Fishin' &
Ultimate Strife which are actually being hosted
here and
here.

SSSSS Update
As the description says, there has indeed been an update to my old game. Updates include:
*You can now enter word combos using only spaces(I was stubborn but thanks Foomer)
*The ai has been tweaked
*Medals have been added(check the game page under standings)
*Foomer ai added (since his typing skills are leet)
*Minor bugs not displaying health and names fixed
*Help window updated to reflect changes
*Potential bugs for multiplayer fixed
Check it out here. And the review too while you're at it (or better yet, make a new one :D)
Also, it'd be pretty cool if someone could make a hub icon for SSSSS (as you can see it only has a banner) and maybe some medals. I can't compensate you monetarily but you will of course receive hub credit. Enjoy the game folks.
