Because I'm going to be gone awhile and people might want to know this random programmer better.

I have a question or two for you should you wish to participate in the other part of this thread.
How many hours of sleep do you have on average?
Do you need to nap often because of it?

Q: Have you seen my mind?

A: I usually sleep between four and twelve hours... It usually depends on if I'm working that night, or how tired I am after work.

A: I usually take a nap on my days off to readjust my sleep schedule since I work graveyard... I usually only try for two or three hours, but wind up sleeping almost fourteen.

@ Trelior I'm afraid as a dragon I lack that ability. And if I did, I might go mad from all the memories and possible thoughts.

What were your first thoughts that you can remember of Acmlm's Board?

Wanted to wait awhile for more replies but I suppose I'll just answer one.
Oh, and do note that when I ask questions, they are directed to anyone who wishes to answer them.

A: Let me ask GLaDOS sometime as I'm sure she knows better than anyone.

Q: What is the longest you have ever stayed up before sleeping?

Hmm. I'm not sure as I like to have well rounded knowledge of both. I suppose I would have more knowledge with ones without compilers so it depends I suppose.

Posted by Rydia
Q: Are ya happy to be a programmer?

Yeah, the only time I wish I would take a break is when it interferes with my creative side and drains all my time. :P

I suppose my best bet is to work on both as much as possible which leads me to why I am creating an RPG for both for a freshly made engine and PHP. I get to use all my talents in one fun area.

Q: What is your favorite form of weaponry?

A: I'd say, on normal days, 7. When I'm able to sleep in, 12.

A2: Even on the days with 12 hours, I still have to nap. I am ALWAYS tired.

I know I asked this in IRC but I am going to ask again since you gave such a great answer.

Where'd you come from anyway? More specifically, what led you here to Kafuka?

The mind, of course. With it, the whole world can change with the matter of a few words that come from it.

Posted by Gywall
So what inspired ya to be a programmer?

Quite a few things but one of them being AB and SMW Central. I liked the software so much, I wanted to build a board of my own. But before I could, I joined another site which the sole programmer left so I began working on it and fixing bugs. I also learned a little about sercurity and such from him. I eventually decided on building my own from scratch or mostly that. Let's say it all started as a joke and grew from there. I'll answer it better in the next question which brings me to it.

I'll copy it from the logs since I'm lazy and no need to reinvent the wheel. ;) It is quite huge so beware!

Jul 30 23:18:38 [@KP9000] Scrydan, where'd you come from, anyway?
Jul 30 23:20:43 [@Scrydan] It is a long story. I've lurked AB for the longest time, never really registering/posting. I found FuYoSa's site long ago back in 2000 or 2001. From time to time, I seen certain events and whatnot but never bothered registering due to being quite shy and whatnot.
Jul 30 23:21:59 [@Scrydan] After a certain time, I kind of stopped but back in 2008, I found another video and it reminded me of ROM hacking and decided to hack SMW. So I eventually registered at SMWC in early 2008 with id 2025.
Jul 30 23:23:51 [@KP9000] nice
Jul 30 23:23:52 [@Scrydan] At that time, I kind of lost track of certain things and events so...yeah. Eventually I learn some things and remembered AB. I still was too shy to register much else until 2010 when I began to register at more sites. It was around then I think I had some inspiration to code with PHP. Inspiration from AB and SMWC's board.
Jul 30 23:23:57 [@KP9000] glad to have you
Jul 30 23:25:08 [@Scrydan] I joined a community called Team Haunted which ran off of a board that was similar to AB in a way - it may have been edited by edit but yeah. Due to the absence of the sole programmer, I decided to have my hand at fixing the board.
Jul 30 23:26:16 [@Scrydan] Yeah, the community lasted maybe a year more or so but eventually I decided to make my own board from scratch on dimensionproject.com.
Jul 30 23:26:32 [@Scrydan] originally it was a joke too
Jul 30 23:29:03 [@KP9000] it looks like you're having a good time here
Jul 30 23:29:10 [@KP9000] we appreciate the time you put in
Jul 30 23:35:39 [@Scrydan] I wanted to make an "alternate dimension of SMWC" by copying HTML and coding every feature I knew of. (Basically, I got HTML, I coded how you'd expect it to work from scratch.) I did this a bit after 4-1-2010 when Kieran opened a alternate dimension up when the site hit its 10,000th user. I forgot to tell Kieran about it so...eh, it left quite a surprise to him. Not only that but due to a "takeover" event earlier (a joke, of course), I obtained HTML of some admin backend and created my own to be exactly like SMWC originally. I had such devotion and still do. It was fun while it lasted but eventually I shut it down to possible drama - even though none was resulting, it was a joke after all. Then I decided to scrap what I had and make it a real board. Slowly it got out of its Alternate Central joke form. That's somewhat of a history lesson of my board. Started as a joke and ended up perfecting my programming skills.
Jul 30 23:35:57 [@Scrydan] Main thing to gain from: I got quite the devotion to programming
Jul 30 23:37:15 [@Scrydan] So after awhile...I find myself wanting to code for someone other than myself.
Jul 30 23:37:36 [@Scrydan] Team Haunted was a fun experience.
Jul 30 23:39:20 [@Scrydan] Kieran one day offers to give me some trial to be a programmer but for some reason, I kind of choked due to how he was doing it. So in any case, that didn't work out so well because I felt quite intimidated.
Jul 30 23:39:47 [@Scrydan] he offered because seeing how I could code most of his board that took years in a matter of a month or so
Jul 30 23:40:18 [@Scrydan] Lots of time passes, I go from Superderek to Scrydan.
Jul 30 23:40:25 [@Scrydan] I get a lot more outgoing.
Jul 30 23:42:11 [@Scrydan] And then I decide to register on Board2 in the hopes to increase activity. But it doesn't seem to be working well. Through luck or whatever, I find the link to this place about a month or so later I think. 4 months maybe? I'm losing track of time now. Point is, I see this as a chance to give back to a board that has touched many people's lives, for better or worse.
Jul 30 23:43:05 [@Scrydan] I wonder how shy I would still be if it wasn't for all the effects it had?
Jul 30 23:43:37 [@Scrydan] It is hard to name them all.
Jul 30 23:44:39 [@Scrydan] Branches that create yet more until you finally get one part of the internet and to then a person behind the user.
Jul 30 23:45:14 [@Scrydan] So yeah, sorry for information overload.
Jul 30 23:45:26 [@Scrydan] almost a life story in a short go
Jul 30 23:45:28 [@Scrydan] lol
Jul 30 23:46:09 [@Scrydan] And yes, I am having a good time here. It is my hope to spread that as well.
Jul 30 23:46:41 [@Scrydan] Seeing people happy make me happy. New shiny features and possibilities make me even more happy.
Jul 30 23:46:58 [@KP9000] :)
Jul 31 00:01:11 [@Scrydan] I'm just hoping maybe someday certain things can be the way they were. It is understandable certain people will have their differences and grudges but if it isn't meant to be then I suppose it isn't. Would be nice if some people seen to reason and realized that sometimes both parties are wrong in their own way.
Jul 31 00:02:33 [@Scrydan] One thing at a time I suppose. ;)

Nope, I haven't. Sadly I don't have too much time to play too many things but we'll see.

I forgot to post general questions to random posters here so I'll go ahead and post a few.


What are your favorite topics to post about?

How often do you tell the truth? Is it often for the benefit of others or just yourself?
