I didn't want to pull another thread off-topic so I had to create a new topic, I hope you see this :P

Your signature is absolutely awesome. Just had to say that.

Yes, I did take the time to figure it out. Yes, that is depressing. Hopefully there are others like me ><

Well I know what it represents is from Portal, but is there actually another game or a scene in portal that uses that code?

hehe nah, I just saw someone on Allakhazam use binary in their sig, so I'm afraid I'm a bit of a copy-cat!

Portal RULES!

LOL Nice sig. I dont normally pay attention to them, but since it was brought to the forefront like so. Very funny. Hate to be a number nazi, but its Hexadecimal.



Binary for same sig. :P
011101000110100001100101001000000110001101100001011010110110010100
100000011010010111001100100000011000010010000001101100011010010110
010100100001001001100010001100110110001101010011010100110011001100
1100111011

lol

My personal fav was http://nickciske.com/tools/binary.php, but it only does one at time. Now that I see one that does them all in one nice place I can enjoy Hex'ing everyone. :P

it's a game based on halflife or something where you get a special gun and you try to solve the puzzles using your special gun

there's a fun flash version of it that's free, just google flash portal or something

i hear it is quite fun, but not wow related at all

Heh, I just used Lua to do it.

s = "hex goes here"; for c in s:gmatch("%x%x") do print(string.char(tonumber(c, 16))) end

For anyone that's interested, go here - http://orange.half-life2.com/portal.html and check out the trailer, it's brilliant and will make you go buy the game.
And for those that aren't going to buy the game... search YouTube for the ending to Portal, it's the bestest bestest end to any game ever. Ever.

Edit: If you ARE going to buy the game, please don't check out youtube for the ending, it'll spoil it's sweetness completely!

Half-Life 2 can become very addictive. Not sure how many times I have played through it on the various toughness settings. But I haven't purchased the orange box yet because if I got into portal, I might have to disable my WoW account until I beat it multiple times. Then playing that would inevitably lead me to other FPS's that take away my WoW time, and that is just unacceptable.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those that don't.
