LOLCode

I'm finding this hilarious. (And yes, via Boingboing).

It's a prospective programming language, using LOL Cats grammar. Sample code:


HAI
  CAN HAS STDIO?
  VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!"
KTHXBYE

It isn't wholly defined yet, but they're working on it. I particularly like this construction:


HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
I HAS A VAR
GIMMEH VAR
IZ VAR BIGGER THAN 10 O RLY?
 YA RLY
  BTW this is true
  VISIBLE "BIG NUMBER!"
 NO WAI
  BTW this is false
  VISIBLE "LITTLE NUMBER!"
 KTHX
KTHXBYE

If it isn't obvious "BTW" is the comment indicator, and VISIBLE is the print statement.

Years ago, esr told me he had a standing offer: he'd build a compiler for any well-defined programming language, however obscure or idiotic. LOLcode isn't there yet, and I don't know that he's still willing to do that. However, I'll make a corresponding pledge: If this project turns into a working, Turing-complete language, and esr makes a LOLcode compiler, I'll write a game in LOLcode.

Mind you, I don't promise it'll be a good game. (Yes, there's my out, to be sure.) But still.

Looks like Pascal. Er, sort of.

This is great. There are at least two interpreters for it on the site (one in perl, one in PHP), both primitive.

Does it have to be ESR? I was thinking of writing a compiler targeting .NET...

/me prefers the Shakespeare programming language. Witness Hello World as Shakespeare would have written it.

Are you sure that this language isn't called "Alamo"?

If you don't understand the gravitational wow powerleveling of an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game:wow power leveling), I'm going to enlighten you with just a dozen words about world of warcraft power leveling: you get to pick what you look like and what your talents are in world of warcraft powerleveling.

That's the real beauty of it with maple story hacks. The first thing you do in the MMORPG World of Warcraft is design your own body to take final fantasy xi power leveling and decide what your strengths will be without maplestory hacks. You pick your race(ffxi powerleveling). What could be more seductive than that with wow gold, the ability to turn in all of the cards without world of warcraft gold you were dealt at birth and draw new ones from a face-up deck? If you have friends who've gotten sucked into the WoW black hole and you don't understand why they never talk to you any more, this is wow powerleveling. I remember being a chubby teenager with bad skin, wow power leveling and astigmatism and pants that didn't fit and wow power level quite right. What would I have given to be reborn as a strapping warrior with rippling pecs and armor of hammered silver to wow powerlevel?

Hehe, Rushu of dofus has gone into the video game equivalent of the Great Depression. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer in comparation of dofus kamas:
F2Ps cant get a profession above level 30 in dofus, so gathering dofus kamas is slow, and such crafting professions take longer to gain the resources. Also crafting professions can't get up to a level high enough to make anything costly, or become a magus.
Equipment hunting in dofus isn't worth as much anymore, unless you're hunting a Gelano to earn a great amount of dofus kamas. This is because before if you got, for example, a 1/1 prespic lining it was worth next to nothing. Now, if you get a 1/1 lining,you get someone to mage it so its higher, so there are more better linings, so the price goes down. Even the ones that have more stats that is normally possible aren't worth as much as a perfect lining was before the magus system.

Runescape offers its gamers a wide variety of skills for farming runescape gold/runescape money to be picked up, with each skill serving a particular purpose and adding some amount of value runescape gold to the player. There are twenty three distinct kinds of skill sets categorized under four major topics of runescape money; Combat skills, Extraction skills, Processing skills and Independent skills for farming runescape money. Attainment of mastery in these skills automatically results in improved performance of a player in Runescape to get runescape money.

Hey, looks like someone wrote that compiler.
Will Coleda and Simon Cozen are working on it. See http://blog.simon-cozens.org/post/view/1323
and the source at
http://perlsix.org/svn/parrot/browse/trunk/languages/lolcode/

So where's that game?
