And there I was thinking that as soon as a coder has an idea, they can just go ahead and produce it completely bug free in about 5 minutes flat, no matter how large or complex the idea. Well that's my reality shattered.

Goodness gracious, that's a typical week for me....
Me: Okay, this code should work great.... crud, a bug... well, only one I can see.
*types furiously, recompiles*
Me: What the?! Why is it inverted now?!
So, slowpoke makes an amusing troll. Personally I'd risk the end of the world, I'm not shocked to hear that solving the last bug has caused it to turn into two, or that it's down to a few hours of work, with no time left to do it due to holidays... I'd rather hear that Elo had a good holiday, whatever one it is (even festivus) then that she pushed herself and ruined the holiday for herself.
Agreed. I'm really looking forward to redpower (was planning on donating when im a bit less tight on cash in jan) but the authors wishes shouldn't be overlooked no matter how absolutely awesome it is going to be.
Okay, I was willing to wade through the muck and leave the occasional helpful post on the MC Forum Redpower post, but now things have just gotten way out of hand, with some moron trying to diagnose his fellow forum goers with mental conditions and disabilities. That's it! I've had it! I'm coming here now.
So, are we talking about Redpower or alcoholic beverages? If the latter, I don't drink, but I do have something I rather enjoy:
Rum Cake
2 boxes store bought yellow cake mix
A cup of clear or gold non-spiced rum
Ricotta cheese
Powdered sugar
Chocolate pudding, either store bought or homemade
Heavy whipping cream
Almond extract
Make two cakes according to the manufacturer's instructions. Alternatively, make the cakes from scratch. There isn't much in the way of measurements in this recipe. Just do what you feel.
Allow the cakes to cool. Combine powdered sugar and Ricotta cheese to form a loose frosting.
Slice the cakes in half so that you have 4 layers. Use a basting brush to apply the rum to each layer, then adhere the layers together with the Ricotta cheese frosting and chocolate pudding.
Place the cake in the fridge to let the Ricotta cheese frosting solidify.
Combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and almond extract and beat into whipped cream. Apply the whipped cream to the outside of the cake as the final frosting.
Put the cake back in the fridge and wait at least 12 hours for the rum to mellow. Serve to a grateful world.

Has it really descended that far? I only left over the weekend and although I haven't looked back (on account of the MCF already being a terrible place) I didn't think it would get that bad that fast.
Anyways, I suppose I can't actually post "on-topic" on account of me not being of the age to drink.
Welcome anyways bud
Yer, we're just lightening the mood here with drinking ideas, absolutely no need to get drunk (nor be one) to input. And yes, it's a far cry from the obnoxious, abusive trollfest that plagues the MC forums and, as far as I can tell, most of the input both from 3rd party IRC and mods/slowpoke is just as accurate on the current status of RP2. Just less pages to browse through before finding it

I am now terrified to open the Redpower thread tab that sits next to this one.
Oh, don't worry. That bit has been moderated into oblivion, as it should have been.
According to the boss, RP2's release has been delayed until 21st dec. That means we have a week and a half to discuss alternative means of enjoying ourselves. Therefore, I'm going to have a snifter of my Remy Martin VSOP. Yes, it's in no way red-but it is nice

that would be strange. i thought Elo more or less only coded redpower on weekends nowadays due to being stupidly bussy the rest of the week.
I can assure you, slow is completely trolling with that post. Put no value in it.
What's he like! lol If (and I'm sprinkling the salt liberally here, having heard this tune plenty of times before) RP2 is released this weekend, you'll have my vote if any of you decide to stand for parliment/president/evil criminal mastermind bent on world domination.

As far as a mixed drink to be named Redpower2, I think it is a shame no one has considered Grenadine. In fact, Vodka, Grenadine, and maybe some Hot Damn (cinnamon liquour) would do well.
