Hey I saw the movie "The Cube" on Saturday Night in the Cinema. Boy, that movie sure kicks ass! :) I currently try to un-bend my brain so I can think straight again. Here's a picture of one of the rooms (one of the white ones ;) ) It's my third ascii-picture ________________________________________________ | J F , | | ', L J , | | :,- - - - - -J- - - - - - F - - - - - :' | | : ', L ===()=== J , : | | : :,- - - - J - - - - -F- - - - :: : | | : : ',_______L________J_______,' : : | | : : | : : | : : | |'- : : | : : | : : , | | :-,_: | : : | :_,-' | | : :-,|.......:........:.......|,-: : | | : : | : : | : : | | :=0=: | : ==()== : | :=0=: | | : : | : : | : : | | : : _|.......:........:.......|_ : : | | : _,:' | : : | ':,_ : | | , :' : | : : | : ':, | |- : : | : : | : : -| | : : |_______:________:_______| : : | | : :,' F J ', : : | | : ,'- - - - -J- - - - - L - - - -': : | | :,' F ===()=== J ', : | | , - - - - - - J - - - - - -L- - - - - -', | | ' F J , | |________________cos____________L________________| diddles are welcome.

It's BLOCKOUT (by California Dreams)! (I moved your initials to the block at the top left corner of the image, and added mine, kinda hid them a little bit) I couldn't seem to find an adequate character to use for shading the bottom face of that block, thought. -- _____________________________________________________ | . o888 | | _ _ _|_ _ _| _ _ Your Commodore 88' 8P" | | |/ \ _\ T / \ / | _\ / ` 64 and 128 88 | | | | / | | L-' [ | / | [ Specialist 88.

However, my intent was that the block at the southwest corner of the image is a three-unit-long block, pointing down into the well. It has already settled to the bottom, thus it should be a solid color. :) -- _____________________________________________________ | . o888 | | _ _ _|_ _ _| _ _ Your Commodore 88' 8P" | | |/ \ _\ T / \ / | _\ / ` 64 and 128 88 | | | | / | | L-' [ | / | [ Specialist 88.
