I'm fast approaching my senior year of my undergraduate at Earlham College. I will graduate with an International Studies degree. The job market is not optimal in my country, but I’m not too worried. My family has some money, and I have some marketable skills. I probably will go to graduate school, and get a Masters of Business and Administration, so that I can get a high paying job.

I wouldn’t be here if not for Mapping Hell. I’m not saying that there is something specific to causally link my involvement in some Sauerbraten clan with my current status. What I’m trying to say is that Mapping Hell, and more generally the Sauerbraten community, were a social network that I devoted a lot of energy and time to, and in consequence it became a big part of who I was.

I went to Europe last fall and I met with two people from Sauerbraten that I’d met years ago: Zeronic in Berlin, and Snowy in Amsterdam. What I realized then was that I’m not the only one who ingratiated them-self with this Sauerbraten community. I feel like I have made friends for life- people I can always relate to, in some fashion.

Am I crazy? Do you guys feel the same way?

Hey guys! I heard that there was a new version of Sauer coming out, so I have returned! I thought I'd create a thread where we can all share what we have been up to in the real world.

I have begun my third year in college, and I am spending a semester in Berlin and Vienna! I am currently typing this from a flat in Kreuzberg. :hamboning:

The Mega Archive / Ukraine Discussion Thread
March 28, 2014, 01:54:12 AM
I thought it would be interesting to get an opinion on the current situation in Ukraine from y'all! Everybody feel welcome to chime in.

Personally, I'm happy the situation is where it is, with Crimea in Russia's hands. While I think that the action was a major violation of Ukraine's sovereignty, I'd rather it end in peace than in war. My main worry is the justification of the actions. If Russia can get away with taking back an area with an "ethnic Russian population", could they do it again?

I really wanna hear from people who live in Europe, specifically Vampi, who's in Romania. You're right on the border of the Ukraine, are there any major concerns of violence or political upheaval there?

News & Discussions / Quadropolis moved to new domain
April 05, 2013, 07:12:12 PM
Copy and pasted from http://4-cube.com

QuoteQuadropolis, while beloved by some has been suffering from GoDaddy's lack of support and the site was deemed to be unsalvagable. Out of the dust of quad 4-cube.com was born. We managed to rescue some of the archive of quadropolis and a lot but not all of the mod files and assorted packages that were stored on the site.

Then like a Phoenix rising from the ashes Quadropolis was reborn after the mighty Nieb appeared like a phantom and blessed the wicked ones with his benevolence.

Hey Mapping Hell. I've done a lot of thinking, and I've decided i just don't connect with this community anymore. Because of this, I'm quitting Mapping Hell. I'm really sorry, and I know this will be a huge shock, but it's what I feel I need to do.

I'd like you all to know that I intend to be a little more active both in and out of game. You'll probably see me in editing servers that are fairly populated. Hope to see y'all around!

General Discussion / Mapping Hell 2012 Yearbook
April 22, 2012, 09:52:56 PM
I decided I needed a new project to pass the time, and I spent some time thinking. How about I make a yearly Mapping Hell Yearbook? That way, we can see how we look as they years progress! I already am friends with some of you on Facebook, so I could rip the pictures of there. Needless to say, I do not have all of your photos. If you are not in the yearbook and would like to be in the yearbook, please email me your picture (kangas.19@osu.edu), or post it in this thread. No naked pictures please. Unless you are hot. Like Vampi. Without further ado, here's the (incomplete) Mapping Hell 2012 Yearbook!

News & Discussions / We are a Red Eclipse Clan too
April 14, 2012, 11:04:30 PM
Vampi and I have been talking about how to keep a creative community alive and happy. Fact is, we're pretty slow right now. I've noticed that many of you have gotten into Red Eclipse (Boognish, Unixfreak, etc.). Sauerbraten has lost it's new and different feel. Red Eclipse is fun, it's different, and frankly, much more interesting to me than Sauerbraten. I'm not saying we should stop being a clan for Sauerbraten. We just ought to be a clan for Red Eclipse, too.

Here's the plan:

-Everybody downloads RE (If they want, not *required*)

-We begin using the [MH] tag in RE (I know some have already)

-We scope out the best editors that RE has to offer, and try to recruit them

-We release game-changing projects that RE has never seen before.


Why do I think we have such a good chance of being legendary in RE? Because everything starts small. If we all get in there, with our vast mapping abilities and collaborative attitude, we could create things that could change editing in RE entirely. We are one of the biggest clans in Sauerbraten, let's be THE BIGGEST in Red Eclipse. Sound good?

This was posted in the Cubic Matter forums, by Chris_0076. It's entirely true. All of it. I'm not even denying the parts about me. It's the truest thing ever. (Red Text is Commentary from me)


"I am not the best editor in the world, nor do I clam to be anywhere near the best. I am not the most logical or level headed person around, but I make some attempts at it. All that being said...
EDIT: also, I don't have a degree in sociology.


Cooper:
You are a hot headed close minded moron. You pick fights that are a waste of time and are not worth the effort in hopes of everyone being just as "open-minded" as you are. Your idea of open-minded is following the exact idea of something that you have in your head. I won't stray off-topic very far with this but this is one of MANY cases where you go off on someone else just because you don't like the way they think. Sure, debate and discussion is fine, but you go out of your way to outright attack people. You seem to think you are on a mission from (not) God to come save all of the ignorant morons in the world. I appreciate this. I hope Cooper doesn't hate you for saying this.


[Apollo]/Windecker:
I don't know you that well, so I'll keep this short. In attempt of being fair at removing low quality maps, I think these are not needed on quad anymore.

http://www.quadropolis.us/node/3119
http://www.quadropolis.us/node/3040
You're welcome.

My guess is that those nodes weren't receiving flame comments, whereas the one that Calinou posted was.


Sweet:
Your[sic] not funny. Yes, it is so possessive that it is a function of your being.

While humor is another thing in the eye of the beholder, I see your point. My argument is the same every time, and I am never truly serious about things. I'll work on that. I'll also stop posting troll comments on your forums.

Buzz words for this post are(as defined by Google for your convenience):
open-minded: adj - ready to entertain new ideas
scarcasm: n - The use of irony to mock or convey contempt.
culture: n - The arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively.
innovation: n - A new method, idea, product, etc
decapitation: v - execution by cutting off the victim's head
denigrate: v - Criticize unfairly; disparage
berate: v - Scold or criticize (someone) angrily
invigorate: v - Give strength or energy to.
resuscitate: v - Make (something such as an idea or enterprise) active or vigorous again.
encapsulate: v - Enclose (something) in or as if in a capsule.
dally: v - Act or move slowly
decrement: v - Cause a discrete reduction
dumbfounded: v - Greatly astonish or amaze
denizens: n - An inhabitant or occupant of a particular place.
dismal: adj - Depressing; dreary.
dispense: v -Distribute or provide (a service or information) to a number of people.
detestation: n - Intense dislike.

Hehehehe. Buzzwords covers a broad spectrum of words, I may not be using it properly.

Calinou:
You should have known better than posting a map that looked like that unless you were making an attempt to mimic this node: http://www.quadropolis.us/node/3266 I mean really I don't know what you were thinking with that, you have been in the community long enough to know what the response would have been.


cm:
Get off your high horse. I mean really. This was not an attack on cm, if anything like what skiingpenguins, you should be ashamed that such a map was even posted (given that it was not in the context of the prior premise). There is no reason to defend such a map as being "oh X person/community/alien hates cm!!!" Yes, other people in the community are nasty and uncivilized baboons with an affinity for "butt ranging", but there is no reason to encapsulate your self in a sea of whining about how everyone hates cm and how every single thing in the sauerbraten community is about you... it really isn't. I know this is something hard to understand, but this forum is not the center of the universe. Quadropolis was made to critique maps, mods, etc (albeit as smooth as sliding down a hill made of razor blades).

Lol'd at 'butt ranging'

MH:
I make attempts at amends with ya'll, and what do I get in return? HARHAR LULZ I TROLOLOL YOU SO HARD. Now, I am not saying this to all of you, many of you are quite nice people, but the 1% of you run the lives of the other 99%.

It's not MH. It's me. And sometimes Zoo. Aaaaand sometimes people who want to get into MH. I apologize for putting a bad viewpoint of MH in your minds.

Quadropolis/Sauerbraten Community:
I will say what I said in the other thread:
" On a less direct note, this is part of the reason why there are no new people in sauer, there is so much of a dichotomy between people that have played sauerbeaten[sic] (sometimes for 5+ years) and new people. This breeds a nasty mess of scarcasm (which is fine between the older people) and general unhelpfulness because everyone expects that everyone else has been playing as long as they have. Really, it has turned into the culture; no reason kicking, unhelpful people in irc, complaining about the littlest things. I mean really, when the culture is set, there is no going back. It is like the monkey experment:

http://cubicmatter.net/forums/download/file.php?id=1022" (Link is member-access only)

To expand on that, the community as a whole is terrible, myself included. We strive not for not innovation, but rather decapitation in attempts to procure a sense of superiority to the noob majority. We find it all to easy to denigrate and berate rather than invigorate and resuscitate. We don't dally to decrement the dumbfounded denizens of the dismal community because it is our duty to dispense detestation that was dumped on us.

We're all guilty of this.

Chris:
You need to stop it with all of the personal attacks dealing with matters that don't even affect you. You don't even map anymore you just seem to be a mass that hangs onto sauerbraten to further waste other people's time. And speaking of wasting time, you wasted all that time to attempt to convert others to your otherwise condescending views. Really, no one cares. Even you should know that people don't change. All the points you make are just repetition and are, honestly, among the worst pieces of trash I have ever seen. You spend all this time writing and to that I say:

Before you say it, you hit the nail right on the head. Hope you know how right you are.

Really, go die in a hole.


TL;TR
Grow up. No, really, take a step back from the computer and go grab you a heaping pile of fruits and veggies and pig out.

Chris

About 5 very large skyscrapers with mild detail, nothing inside (yet).

I made these originally for the Mirror's Edge map (hence the mapname), but I couldn't get myself to make a whole map from these.

Likely, they would end up being used for larger scale city projects.

News & Discussions / MX and the MX Compromise
January 08, 2012, 04:45:04 AM
Some of you may or may not know that mX|Redon has returned. As the leader of mX (after Misan left), he has decided to revive mX as a clan.

There is obviously confusion, however. I know that at least Windecker, Vampirefrog, Zoocata, and I, were all invited to mX. This membership is hereby revoked. However, you guys can reapply to mX when they get their application system in order.

There is a catch: The new mX rules state that no "multi-clanning" is to be allowed. After extensive talks with Redon, we have come to an agreement that allows MH members to still be mX members.

The MH - MX membership Clause

1. MH Members may be in mX under the following conditions

- They do not join any other clan, or take part in any other clan, other than MH and mX

- They do their best to attend the mX weekly meetings, which occur on Saturdays.

- They obey mX clan rules at all times. (Please talk to Redon or another mX member about these.)

____________________________________________________________________________

Summary: If you want to be in mX and MH at the same time, sure that's fine. But if you are in mX, you can't be in any other clan other than MH.


Here's a friendly Venn Diagram to assist in understanding.
