Astounding!

Uhh...no?

What do you mean? It shows you how to beat Mario in four seconds. And there's no denying that Mario was well and truly beaten, is there?


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - EdenMaster - 11th December 2005

Well...there is. Particularly considering that the link you provided leads to nothing.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Weltall - 11th December 2005

Yes it does. I just clicked it and downloaded the movie again, to make sure.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Smoke - 11th December 2005

I'm getting nothing too.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Great Rumbler - 12th December 2005

It showed up for me.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - A Black Falcon - 12th December 2005

Doesn't work.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Great Rumbler - 12th December 2005

Still works just fine for me.

*right-click, open in Internet Explorer*

Didn't work for me eithor.

Here I put the video on my server so every one should be able to view it now....

Although I really didn't get it to begin with.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - A Black Falcon - 12th December 2005

That one works... :)

About as pointless as the replies have suggested. Slightly funny though...

It's what every player I've met has done over and over again when they "started gaming" all those yars ago (yars is BETTER than years).

But, it's a pretty bad pun...

And all one needs to do, if they must, is copy the link and put it in their address bar. Then it works fine. If you just click on it, you get one of those error pages that seem to be generated in ANGER for DARING to "leech" from some server.

Weltall, so you know, very often the original poster of a "leech protected" image won't be able to tell until they clear their cache, because the file they want people to see is still in their own cache and that's what the computer will prefer to use rather than going back online to download it again.

Come to think of it, by what means do they do this "leech protection" anyway? I mean, how exactly is typing the direct link to the file able to get around clicking on a link in some random forum? Does the average browser actually tell the server how it got there? Does the average browser send a signal that basically says "used a hyperlink" or "was embedded in HTML"? How silly. Such a message seems a tad risky. Shouldn't any request for a file appear exactly the same to the server? They should really just make clicking on a link send the same data to a server as typing it into the address bar. I see no logical reason to do otherwise.

I did get it to work when I opened it with IE, but was disappointed that it took more effort to see than it was worth :).


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - lazyfatbum - 13th December 2005

I was seriously expecting to see Mario masturbating.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Dark Jaguar - 13th December 2005

You decided to follow the link after thinking that? On purpose?!

It's my understanding that when you click on a link the site you're linking to can see where you linked from.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Dark Jaguar - 14th December 2005

My question is HOW? In some way, some how, the browser HAS to actually TELL the server that information.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Great Rumbler - 14th December 2005

Big Brother is watching you.

This is correct, the information is stored in a server varable called HTTP_REFERER and is part of the TCP/IP proticol.

See the MSDN knowledge base article on IIS server varables [HERE]

You do realize who you're dealing with right?

What's the font used in that image?


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - lazyfatbum - 15th December 2005

I dunno, I made that years ago when I had a very hard time with photoshop. It's a normal font... I think it might be copperplate with some nasty red dullops of gooey poop.

I tried to make my eyes and teeth bright and scary... I think it works.


How to beat Mario in four seconds. - Sacred Jellybean - 15th December 2005

Are you kidding? That image is scarier than when Weltall photoshopped it for Halloween. :D I should show you my ugly pictures some day, I've gotten a lot of new and good ones (and they're 100% natural, like the big penis pills I pretend to not never refuse to think of not taking).

I think the "Scare people with your pictures extravaganza" has my name on it. (Of course it does, I started it! Teh hurr!)
