Now we need a poll about this:

Is it right to fiddle while the server burns?
Yes, unconditionally
Yes, as long as you have Peeps to talk about
No, unless it's someone's fault
No, unconditionally

I don't think that this rating is right:

is rated first in the top downloads this week! It's above VTI! That just rings wrong with me. Is this true?

Yes. We saw it and are going to do something about it. Thanks tho. It actually had that many downloads on Sunday of this week.

It would seem to me that our dear friend (???) "bdklsldkq lskdglsdk" downloaded his own file thousands of times...

Maby it is just a REALLY good program and EVERYONE downloaded it 5 times, this week.

2000+ downloads in like 3 days? Thats not right. The next closest was VTI with 700. Something fishy is going on here *LOL* :).

Gerhalt

hopefully you understood that i was joking, but how is it that vti, still has so many downloads, doesnt everyone have it yet. it seams like visitors would just be looking for games and other programs for their calc, and everyone else would have downloaded it years ago.

This is IMPOSSIBLE!

I mean, it's an INTEREST program. It's BASIC. It's not a game. It is a MATH program. No screenshots. Not a featured program. The only program ever made by this "bdklsldkq lskdglsdk". Compare it to VTI. Now, I'm not saying it's bad, but compared to VTI, and all the programs made by Patrick Davidson, and Thomas Nussbaumer, and all the other really great programmers, it sucks.

Yes. Something wierd is going on. True, no one would download something 2000 times. I think this guy has highspeed internet. And a autodownloader.

Which brings me to say, I got #1 Voyage 200 file the first week I put TankWars (the first Voyage 200 game I made) up. And I didn't download it a single time (I didn't need to)! Horray! GO ME! :)

If you have the 2.07 OS for your V200, I found an undocumented feature! Open up a BASIC program in the Editor, next hit 2nd 3 (Turn on Custom Menu), lastly hit F6. Through it doesn't do anything 'bad' I can't believe I found a bug like this in TI's OS! As far as I know it only works in the Program Editor.

Can you tell us what happens, for those of us that don't have a V200?

Yes! Tell us!

First of all, GET A VOYAGE they are awesome. Secondly, it does nothing important, just screws up the menu a little bit. Nothing permanent.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. For some odd reason I was unable to post. Anyway, Morgan is rgiht it screws up the menu but it is not permanent. Oh yeah, the V200 does rock!

lol, they took down the top downloads thing on the front page.

If it was him, he has a whole lot of free time on his hands, to download it that many times. I have downoaded my file a few times, but got bored after about 5 downloads.

-W-

script?

That's what I was thinking. Will somebody on TIcalc.org staff check the IP addresses of the downloaders.
BTW, goto my website and right-click.

>>Go to my website and right-click

LOL. I went there and did that. How did I infringe the copyright?

.......... it's a joke.

I know. I'm playing along.

Doesn't work in Opera. And don't forget about View->Source. And File-Save As->Complete Web Page.

Yeah, I viewed the source before right-clicking... and that's not my IP :)

Well, if it's not your IP address, then you've got a messed up computer. j/k (maybe)

Or he is behind a router with a dynamic IP.

Yeah, I know about that. Try doing that now, and looking at the source.
Ah, pure HTML

LOL! Easy to hack! Save it to a .js file, change document.write to something else like alert, and run it. You can even make it output to a file...

Not to mention it is still somewhat easy to read.

No, try to read the *pure HTML* source code.

There's a really easy workaround for that, other than
1. having a keyboard with the context menu key
2. going to View->Source
3. saving the page and editing it

If you right-click, then hold down the space bar on the 'OK' button, right click somewhere on the page, then let go of space, then let go of the right click, the menu still pops up.

Yeah, I know how easy it is to get around. I don't care.

Or, you could just get a better browser than IE. Like, say, Mozilla. GNU4EVAH!

<hyprocrite>CHEATER!</hypocrite>

Yeah, a long while back, I did that for one of my programs, but I think I only downloaded it about 3-5 times. It really didn't make a difference.

No! Look at the link! It's a math program (a BASIC one at that, only 2K), and it's very new. I'm sure he did sit there, downloading it a couple thousand times (how boring). n00b!

C'mon.
How many people would actually download a program calculating interest in one week?

lol...p33ps r0xx0r

NOBODY. That really distubs me how he did that.

Hey, the site is a little messed up... click the link. What happened?

Yeah, but I think that the idea of a script is more plausible.

-W-

They still haven't fixed it...

ARCHIVERS!!! FIX!!! NOW!!!
:)

That sounds like a call to action from a bad anime show.

-W-

Archiver doesn't come with that much power(Ability to change download count). We have been wrong before on matters like this, so we are checking first.
