1st post!

Good programming is definetely the most to look for

why? They filter through programs, plug in screenshots, make sure everything is zipped, etc, I guess, and now we need speed to get through the thousand files, and not much else.

whoops, sent that twice...

as well as your reply :)

as well as your reply :)

I would imagine more time is more important, but of course, that is jusy my opinion. At any rate, this is promising news indeed. Congrats to our new archivers! And so on! etc... etc...

END TRANSMISSION

It certainly is :)

I thought this poll was the same when I saw the options. The most important is/was LOTS OF TIME, imo.

definitely not good grammar skills

(no offense, but the 2nd one has a mistake on the first word in the about thingy)

Actually, I think that was my fault - error in copy/paste operation. Should be fixed now.

What about your capitilization? (j/k lol)

Well, almost everyone in the world (...) voted for time here, so I'm guessing time. I would hope that a number of poeple that big could be correct about a question like this.

How much time do you think is needed to sift through a few programs?

1277 is not a "few" files!

Really!
We should be proud of our new file archivers in their ability to upload so many files without going crazy :) (I probably w00d)

It's just a thought, but I think it would be interesting to know how many of these 1277+ files are picture/video files. *grr*

Well, does the 1277 include just the zips, or all the files within the zip files? If the 1277 includes all the files within the zips, then it's really not that many separate programs or whatever, especially considering source files, readmes, and all that good stuff.

The number that is shown is the number of ZIP files that are in pending. So yes, it IS a lot of work.

96 of them are in "graphics" directories. Don't know how many are graphics programs and how many are just pictures.

Oh, really? Well, that's not too bad. I was expecting it to be around 400 or something ;-) That's good news.

I doubt anyone is going to pick "cool name" (Like "no_one_2000_" LOL)

WHAT??? You don't think my name is cool? It looks like at least ONE person thinks so. (Unless they were actually thinking of Morgan...)

I was just kidding :-) LOL It's possible... "morgazum" is not one you see every day ;-)

OT: Your badmath program for the TI-80 is a really clever idea :) I looked at the source and kind of "re-did" it for the TI-83+ and put it on my friend's calculators... they were so freaked out when they saw that 5/2 wasn't equal to 2.5 ;-)

you should've see they're faces when i did it on some 82s in the spring of 2000 ;)

w00t! for TI-82!!!!!!! YEAH!

That would be so funny if they tried to do homework with it :D Oh my gosh, I saw the weirdest thing today. My friend's TI-83+se... it really was screwed up. It was acting like a 100 mHz computer with 50 AIM convo boxes up at once. It was so slow and unrespondant. I told her to try to send her important programs to another calc via link and then reset her calc. She could send them back later. But anyway, the link transmission locked up and we played around with it, and then all of the sudden, it was fine! That's not the first time a TI-83+se has done something odd like that.
