the most annoying kids in washington

nice, i could do 360's on motorcross madness 2. Age of empires was the shit, and Battlefeild 1942 just kicks ass. Halflife 2 will be the best game ever once it comes out in april tho. Some fucker leaked the source code and they had to rewrite it, otherwise i would be playing it now instead of talking to all you assholes (except Christine and Sam)(And D-lite, cause you cant hate that guy).

and sean, keep dreaming. your engine will never work. NEVER! AHahahhaHAHAH!! Muahahhhahaaa....

==============================

^Rowen^

'Avi!'

'Shutup and sit down, you big-balled fuck.'

 
I would like to nominate Rowen as the new most annoying kid in washington.

anybody second the motion?

you cant hate d-lite? you're just not trying hard enough

dont get gloves though, gloves are out. just use a cigarette to keep your hands warm.
 
chris would you like to solidify the motion by thirding it?

although the dieter comment is true, he's not on newschoolers, and we barely ever see him.

Rowen has now been nominated, no votes are needed.

I bet you couldn't do 720's in motocross rowen, could ya? Could ya?! Or jump off the bike and do a backflip? Yeah, thats what I thought! I'm making a ski mountain for the game now, its so sweet. It has chairlifts, some big steep lines off the backside, and a terrain park with tables, and a few big hips.

-------------------

be aware, ski with care
 
how the fuck did you do back flips? you fall off unless you hacked it... gimmie your level when it done, aight?

==============================

^Rowen^

'Avi!'

'Shutup and sit down, you big-balled fuck.'

 
you only fall off if the BIKE goes upside down. on mine, the rider jumps off of the bike and does a backflip. I've got a trick editor, so I've been making tricks (ie the 360 and 720) the level is turning out sweet!

-------------------

you bullshitter, i can do 1080's OFF the bike, but i can do 360's on the bike and fucking stomp those mothers. You got nothin!

Battlefeild is halarious tho, AA Shennanagans and the out-of-plane loop! Haha, and the plane to jeep transfer!

==============================

^Rowen^

'Avi!'

'Shutup and sit down, you big-balled fuck.'

 
rowen, shut up. how can you do 1080s without a trick editor? falling of the bike doesn't count. ask kevin. don't be dumb.

-------------------

be aware, ski with care
 
its is impossible for rowen to not be dumb, moronic, stupid, or otherwise useless.

just do a search on google, its a really small file. its called like siktrix104 or something like that. just do a search for motocross madness 2 trick editor or something.

im gonna need mcm2 as well tho. Hah, this thread gets so off topic, its great.

Grinding planetary rings would be incredibly difficult, not the least for which because there is no surface per se to slide on, and the collisions of the pieces of asteroid, dust and ice in the ring would make an environment that would not be pleasant. Your blood would first boil in the vacuum of space, leaving you so incapacitated that you could not maintain sufficient balance if there was a surface to grind, and then the temperature would freeze your skin, shatter your eardrums and sever your optical nerves because your watery eyeballs would freeze and then shatter. In the next split second, hundreds of particles of dust, ice and rock smaller than the size of this comma ',' would rip through your ski coat and body, instantly killing you. Your body would then still float about getting cut to shreds by the fragments until it is crushed between two colliding pieces of debris, eg two asteroids within the ring, which would grind your frozen body and regrettably snap your boards, boots and bindings, into dust to float around and become part of the massive debris fields that are the rings of Jupiter.
 
well...technically it IS on topic, I mean...we're all still posting in it, so....

yeah, i guess so.

Dora the Explorer is a 7 year old, Latino girl. Dora uses her knowledge of the Spanish language to communicate with her friends, overcome obstacles and reach her goals. In each episode, Dora teaches the viewers a Spanish word or phrase and then asks them to use it to help solve a problem. The show is often accompanied by a variety of Dora's friends -- Isa the Iguana, Boots the monkey, Benny the Bull, the Fiesta Trio (a bug band), Señor Tucán, Tico (I was not sure what Tico was but Monica and her son wrote to let me know that it is a squirrel...Thanks!), Swiper the Fox and Dora's Map and Backpack (which have have faces and personalities).

It's Cindy my girlfriend........well.....

um......technically I logged in on her screen name and posted some stuff. But she got on NS last year, just so we could talk while I was at work (didn't know about AIM express then). She hasn't ever been back on here in forever cause....well, newschoolers is kinda retarded.

But yeah...so technically you kinda just met the infamous Cindy...but not really at all.

this thread is now way too long and should be shut down. we have all agreed that rowen and deiter are tied for the most annoying kids in washington. this thread may now rest in peace.

Thats my 3rd birthday party, thats right. I was analyzing airfoil camber, and static drag coefficients by the age of 3. what.

So, I run into the Helly Hansen crew at EMP, and as I ask Pollard what the fuck he's doing here, he says, 'Sweet Man.' Then corrects himself with 'What? I dunno.'

 
I have to get my senior picture for the school yearbook soon, what should i do? I was thinking ski oriented somehow, maybe even taking it up at stevens somewhere.

we've already had to come up with mentors and a project idea for senior project. I'm doing mine on the History of skiing or acquiring the PSIA level one certification.

Hahah, that guy just took most annoying kid in WA for the month.

Yeah, my senior project is going to be something ski related. Maybe like do avalanche control or work with ski patrol, or maybe even terrain park physics and angles for jumps, that would be cool.

terrain park physics? that'd be a pretty weak senior project rowen.

everything follows a parabolic trajectory, with an initial given angle. Foward horizontal velocity is a constant, while vertical velocity follows the equation V=Vo+At where Vo is the initial vertical velocity, and A is the acceleration (-9.8 meters/second squared in this case). Those two velocities, can easily be calculated from the angle of trajectory. The vertical initial velocity is equal to the total initial velocity, say Vt, multiplied by the cosine of the angle, and logically, the horizontal velocity is just Vt times the sine of that angle.

Distance travelled can be calculated, by finding how long it will take for the skier to go up then down using the integral of the above equation for the vertical velocity, the integral will of course give you the position. You solve that for zero, to get the time in the air. Multiply that by the intergral of the horizontal velocity, and you get distance travelled.

As far as tricks go, all rotation takes place around the skiers center of gravity, and that is the point that follows the parabolic path. For all considerations, you can assume that all of the skiers weight acts at that single point (somewhere in your belly). By twisted your body above your CG before taking of, but having your feet on the ground, you incure a moment about your center of gravity, and once in the air, you continue to rotate until you land, in which the opposite happens, and your feet incure in effect a negative moment opposing your rotation.

Bam, your senior project is done.
