I have no clue why it won't work, so here is a direct link till I figure how to make it work properly on the Hub

You can't use rar. (At least I don't think) Use a zip folder.

Why would you encourage more anime rips? The anime crowd seems to have no concept of learning just "OMG wit iz da codez 4 jejenken tyupo attack plz"

I bet myself twenty dollars that your code would be terrible.

Now I owe myself twenty dollars.

Don't try to teach people before you know how to write good code yourself. Or at the VERY least ask somebody who knows what they're doing whether it's good enough first.

Betting myself double or nothing that you will overreact to this post in some manner.

Tell me how my code is bad, and why would you bet against me if you don't know me?

And Im not incoraging rips by creating a demo, Im encouraging people to improve games or even make their own.
If you go with that filosophy, any sort of demo is useless, anyone can just copy and paste them

Damn Garthor, quit while you're ahead.

Actually, it is bad, a quick glance at a file reveals mass usr abuse, as well as a wrongful ban of whoever owns the key "GuestofKings" (or anyone else with a key beginning with "Guest"), and non-modular code.

How would you ban guests then, sir

and what you mean with non-modular code?

I would check if the length of the key was that of a guest key, then I would check if guest was in the beginning of the key, and then I would check if the last couple of characters (I forget how many, though it's easy enough to check) are numbers.

Put simply, a lot of your code is ugly. Modular code is code broken up into pieces that can be used interchangeably, which makes programming easier, as you have much less repeated code.

For modular code, look up "Modular programming" in the Dream Makers guild, there are two articles, and I wrote one of them. For the guest key thing, I'm pretty sure Lummox JR wrote an implementation of what I was talking about on the Dev. Forums.
