    Trolls, and feeding trolls, is an essential part of teh internets, so I think CanadianGamer fits right in with this thread.

    A meme is an idea that gets ridiculously popular really fast, usually through the internet. Like all the things people have been talking about in this thread, or ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US, or the purpose of a ninja is to flip out and kill people, or even saying "that's what she said" every most sentences (I think anyway)...

    I'm thinking that'll be an achievement to unlock, over 9000 score.

    How about what we all hate the most........lag.....
    When I play Halo 3 and Call of Duty:WaW and lag appears.......it's annoying and 75% of the time when it first appears I quit

    Haha lagging on purpose huh? Well I was thinking of making a menu item that when you go to it it just gives you an Error 404, File Not Found -- since I think it would be kind of funny -- but at the same time I'm hoping for this to actually be a really fun game, not just a funny but annoying game. I'd only include lag on purpose if I can do it in a way that will add to the gameplay instead of just pissing people off :).

    Any ideas for how I could add lag on purpose that won't make the game suck? Or 404 Errors?

    well lag will piss everyone off. But i think that there is a solution.
    For those of you who have halo 3, every now and then you'll start lagging and you appear at nearby random places... randomly. well you could do it with the roflcopter, except make the obstructions moving at random. The only thing is when/if you hit these obsruction you'll pass throught them. But it is vital to not announce that the game is entering "lag mode" otherwise the player will know that he can fly through it harmlessly without trying. That way you wont get ticked, since you wont die randomly, and it would confuse the hell out of the player... which is fun for the dev. =)

    Idk it might still make the player mad, but u could variate it as you see fit. =).

    one more question: that videos you posted at the beginning of the thread, it was before this thread was made right?

    There has to be at least one thing in this game that's firing it's lasers.

    Yeah it was before I started this thread. I've done a whole lot since that thread was started now though, and the next videos I release have a lot of new content in them. I just don't have my own camcorder, and the game isn't too playable in the iPhone Simulator since you need two hands :).
