By the way, we REALLY need to start programming this.  Are we definately using scratch?  I thought I heard Java brought up somewhere...

We're using Java for the final version.

EDIT: W00T! 32 pages!

C++ would probably be better...

I care! I just need a job!

I'm not particularly good at C++, so I would have to drop out of the conversion bit.

neither am i

but I could do the website (i noticed that it's still down)

We're going to first program it using either BYOB or Panther (or possibly another scratch mod) and then convert it to a Java program.

my dad's teaching me seaside, so i might be able to do the website.

What's seaside? (I know nothing about programming beyond scratch  .)

seaside is a web development implementation of SmallTalk-80.  It's basically a modified version of Squeak that's specialized for web-development.  Squeak is what Scratch is built on.  If you Shift-Click the loop in the R in the scratch logo in the normal version, and select toggle fill-screen (or something like that) you can "peel away" scratch and reveal the sqeak beneath!

anyways, I was thinking that it would be a lot easier to convert a scratch program into something smalltalk-based.

Sure. What do you want to do?

I compose music, I just take a while, since my skill level is at a novice point, but I promise you, it won't sound bad.

The site works perfectly fine for me. Are you sure you're looking at the right one?

EDIT: Oh, I never updated that link. We haven't used that site in a LONG time.

*facepalm* i don't know the other site lol    [/epicfail]

Oh well.    I hope you're back in time to finish it with us.

Good news: I can still sorta access internet with my aunt's dial-up. So can we hurry up? Please? We're all getting really bored:( *yawn*

we need to start NOW.  first order of business: figuring out a way to make a scrolling tile-based map that can be generated by reading a code from a variable or list -> this will allow much greater flexibility and even the possiblitiy of user-created maps.

paraphrase: we need to get the basic map mechanics working.
