Hi everyone. I am Ouranos (OO - ran - ohs) [the Sky, father of Chronos, grandfather of Zeus and the Titans, and great-grandfather to all of Zeus's many children. I was castrated by my son, who in turn was castrated by his son (talk about a great thing to run in the family). Zeus puts his genitals in so many places it's a wonder he hasn't been castrated yet, but I guess he is more tolerant. While we discuss genitals, I am certainly proud that when my genitals struck the sea, the most beautiful creature (Aphrodite) arose.]
Anyway, I'm Ouranos, and I joined this forum around Thanksgiving break. Fortunately my account as not been deleted for inactivity, as this is my first post. In my constant battle against schoolwork and depression [I'm a teen, if it wasn't immediately obvious] it's hard to get the motivation to do something out of school like this. As winter break approaches, though, I am happier and my workload is lighter, so I can spare many more moments.
I have already spent a small bit of time playing around with Simba, which I can see now is very, very powerful; my major issue, however, is that it seems to be Pascal-based, and I have little to no experience in Pascal [I've done quite a bit of USACO/algorithmic stuff in C/C++ and some schoolwork in Java, but nothing at all in Pascal, Python, or any other major language]. In addition, the help website seemed to be missing a few things, most notably pictures/screenshots.
I'd tried to click the mouse a certain number of times in a certain place , but the bar on the bottom gave the coordinates from the top left of the screen, while it seems the coordinates in all the Mouse functions refer to locations from the top left of the current window.
My next step, clearly, is to browse the threads of the Tutorial Island subforum, particularly that titled "Scripting Tutorials". From there I may start making all sorts of macros to do odd jobs (RS and non RS-related), making bigger scripts, and comparing mine to existing ones. I'll probably have a few posts in the Math section as well (USAJMO 2011 qualifier and all that).
I suppose I didn't address my origin properly: I found this site from RS-based searches; I was trying to restart my autoing experience in "EB", as the bot calls itself, but I remembered Runescape existed only on October 26th (bad luck boy). This community is probably a good amount better than my old one, although this forum is quite massive.
Well, that's all I have to say for now. Seeya round.
TL;DR?
Sorry, I don't believe in those.
