I didn't see any previous threads about this one: (Sorry I was wrong.) Kaos War will revolutionize the MMO genre, and bring the first true high action, massive, third person experience to millions around the world.
Kaos War will also showcase SRI's proprietary, state of the art, rendering and game engine. Gamers will be awe-struck with the level of detail these bleeding edge technologies bring, as well as the never before seen performance of SRI's patented networking technology solutions. Meet Damon Grow: a part-time doorman and full-time CEO of a fledging game company. His mission: to beat World of Warcraft at its own game by creating the ultimate MMO. http://www.kaoswar.comSome videos chronicling the games's development: http://www.kaoswar.com/media.phpAt least these guys are more honest than the typical vaporware developers. I wonder if they really hold a patent on some kind of "networking technology". I don't have time to look it up right now though. |

Odd it didn't show up when i searched. Consider this an "update" thread in that case. They have released a "demo" since the old thread. |

I'm sure this game will be awesome splenda. We should donate. I plan to send them my collection of colourful Australian money. It's worth quite a few cents. No, really, we should donate. I'm sure it's not a scam. Mostly.

It's spelled "Chaos".
"Kaos" isn't a word.

"Kaos" is also a game played on Aussie university campuses. Red-blooded Americans call it "Assassin".

My spelling and vocabulary is always all buggered up.  Righ is much better at life than I am, thankfully. I rely on his steadfastness. (that would sound better if it were steadfast iness, wouldn't it?) You do have colourful money, though. Is it made from polyester? |

Is that where you draw names out of a hat, and get a target, and go shoot them with a nerf/water/paintball gun (depending on the campus rules)? |

My memory of the ads they bombarded us with when they brought them out suggests that they are polymer, and it's right. As far as I can tell that's just a fancy word for plastic. It's pretty cool because it's really hard to destroy your money accidently by say falling in a puddle while walking home drunk, a common peril down here. And like you said it's very colourful, I'm quite partial to the yellow goodness of the $50 myself. The $10 would be nice too, but they always seem to be worn down when I get them. I never get fresh ones.  |

Australian currency is a polymer ( details). US currency is composed of 25 percent linen and 75 percent cotton, or at least was. I don't think we've change yet though. |
Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

They're cool looking banknotes, aren't they? They look splenda, they feel splenda and you can leave them in your pockets when you wash your clothes! And, like in Britain and other countries, they come in different sizes so the shops can't rip off blind people! |

Just add some braille bumps to each US note, rather than changing sizes and instantly obsoleting every cash register and ATM in the union.

 That's hardcore money right there. We don't need no fancy paper money! I love the looks people give you when you actually try to spend one of these things... or better yet, when someone gives you them as change. |

They're getting harder and harder to find, but at this point I think I've collected enough to last until I reach the age where a 20 year old could take me in a fistfight if it came to that.

I actually liked how the Euro only issues 1e and 2e as coins. I don't necessarily prefer it, but it's neat.
But the Dollar system is so ingrained here that it's practically pointless to try and change things. Remember the $2 bill?
Some kid tried to pay for a game the other day with s pile of cash that included about 4 of these. I had to use the counterfeit pen on all of them, just to make sure.

No one will ever counterfeit the 2 dollar bill. It's too much hassle for too little reward and they are way to rare to escape scrutiny. Some small brained mouth breather like you had the nerve to call the cops on me at a Supermarket for passing one of these that the bank had given me when I cashed a check a couple of years ago. The cop came in, looked at it and said, "You're fucking kidding right?" to the clerk and her manager turned around and walked out. |

Still, in a fight, I'd put my money on Susan. She's seemed very studly. I bet she could've kicked the Queen's arse without breaking a sweat.

You'd put your money on Susan, but then a teeny gust of wind would blow it off and all over the damn place because you insist on using paper money for anything over fifty pence. Anyway, the Queen has superman style laser eyes, which she uses to keep errant colonials in line. But don't tell anyone, it's a big secret. |
