hehe, first post :)
Seriously, how could ticalc.org start with micro payments when the authors of the programs don't get anything of the profit if the authors decided to get a percentage of the profit.
I'll just shut up for now, it's too early in the morning for me :)

The second post, cool. I was not fooled. If they would be too desperate for money, they would put advertisements on the site before getting money from the members.

heh... April Fools jokes aren't beleiveable anymore. However, calc.org had an "obvious fake", and it was true. That's what make a truely good joke. :)

--nate

now that's an idea, i'll take 50% of the profit ticalc.org makes from people downloading my games.

what are micro payments

see link

lol

I'm in second! Woohoo!

Er, um....waitasec...oh.

And I got all excited for nothing. :\

Just curious, did you vote that Nick B was the fool? ;)

Hehe!
w00t!

Yes, but only until I realized that it was 4/1.

I said Nick B was the fool, i hope i don't get a mail bomb. Except, i don't even think that my vote went through because we i tried to vote, it said i already had. That was annoying.

If they didn't want you to put "Nick B is the fool", then they wouldn't make it an option. Besides, I doubt they track what you vote. I think it's just, that you voted.

Nick B is code for CowboyNeal. Go look at the last option on most of the slashdot.org polls lol.

You know what's really funny is my friend came to me at school and told me he saw that they were charging at Ti-Calc. Of course, I didn't believe him, though...

lol, you must live at a really nerdy school, multiple people who participate on ticalc.org, let alone friends.. i'm the only one that i know of at my school who regularly checks this site.

true

I agree

Me too, but their is at least one more person who downloads games, otherwise I would never have tried Bubble Bobble (Better than it's name)

Cool game :) I think it was by DWedit. Anyway, I have it for the 82.

Cool Game? GREAT Game! EXCELLENT Game!

true is true

i think i'm the only ticalc.org member in my school, although not the only one interested in programming.
all the other people don't seem to want to get a graphlink or any other linking device besides a calc to calc link.

Same here. Most people at my school don't know that ticalc.org exists. If they go to a calculator site, it's calc.org (because it also has HP calcs...)

At my school there are only a handful of people (out of over 4,000) that even know what they are doing around computers, let alone know about TI Calc...

Same here.

Oh...You really think so??

Me and "Charlemagne" are probably the only two people who are really into programming calcs...The others are just...stupid (at least most of them)

Oh yeah? Well, I am the only real person in this world, you all are just high quality robots (except for Depleateduranium (yes, I know it's FOCUSEDWOLF (yes, I know that I use a lot of parentheses)), a mistake was made when he was made...AAAAAAOoooOUUuuuUUU???)
oh well...

Yeah, me too. And the homeschool people too...

OK Anson...You didn't have to say that to the public...

Of course I didn't believe it either although a couple of my friends did (D. Moore & D. Salazar)

Shame on Nick B (even though he did do a pretty good job...)

As a ticalc.org supporter I have already told many of my friends, who have graphing calculators, about ticalc.org and thus many of them use this site. It's perfectly normal for few friends to converse about this website, after all how many websites do it like ticalc.org?

long live ticalc!

I'm the only one in my whole school who can make a calculator game, even in BASIC, now that's sad.

I sorta am. I have a friend who can program BASIC (but not asm :) pretty well (I taught him), but he doesn't bring his calculator to school anymore because he thought it was messing him up in school (he thought he wasn't paying attention). It doesn't work, though, because he just plays/programs on my calculator.

I'm the only one in my class who knows how to create a MATH program!
