---Wow, it's been a while. There's too much stuff that's happened since the last update to write about here. And this was never a blog site anyway. I'm only keeping this stuff here for nostalgia, and to remind me of bad web design. :)
---planet36.com is my new website. I won't be updating this geocities site any more. Just go to planet36 for my new stuff. I'll try to move any interesting things that are here onto that site.
---It's been fun. Oh, and in case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
---Later. -Steve

---Added the 3 in-game downloads to the SOA page.
---Added a JavaScript PSO Section ID Calculator to the PSO page. Also updated the PSO Section ID Calculator Guide.
1:45am EDT Wednesday, June 20, 2001 AD
---Added the PSO page. It has my very own guide about the section ID and how to calculate it. It also has a complete item list from www.cmgsccc.com.
6:30pm EDT Tuesday, June 5, 2001 AD
---Made a Skies of Arcadia page to contain the Discovery Maps and a new Item List that I made. I got the items from www.cmgsccc.com. I also made a 2x2 map page with full sized images in addition to the 3x3 map.
5:30pm EST Friday, February 16, 2001 AD
---Added "You Might be an Engineer if..." page. I got it from my CSD1 teacher's web site and it's pretty funny if you identify with any of it.
7:00pm EST Thursday, December 28, 2000 AD
---Now there's no ads at the bottom. I guess Reel.com doesn't do the pages that pay thing anymore, but that means less load time for me. And I put a link at the top to view my Yahoo! Geocities page stats.
---For a while, I had a Geocities popupkiller, but I think Yahoo caught on to the scheme, and it doesn't work anymore. It worked by calling a certain Java function that automatically closed the popup window. Maybe something else will come along.
---New Yahoo games like Tic Tac Toe and Poker have been added. I got these from the Yahoo! Geocities add-ons section. They use Java to run.
---I've made a page with all the maps of all the discoveries in the game Skies of Arcadia. I got the maps from the Japanese site Dricas.
---Hopefully, I'll get to update the site some more before school starts in early January. Work and school prevent me from updating as much as I'd like to. That's why it's been so long since the last change.
9:00am EDT Wednesday, July 19, 2000 AD
---Recently, I made a FAQ for the Dreamcast game ChuChu Rocket! (specifically the 1P Puzzle mode). In the FAQ, I've given all the solutions to all the puzzles in the 1P Puzzle mode. I started making this FAQ in March after I completed all the puzzles, but I got sidetracked so I just finished it last month.
---Also, on the home page, you'll notice that I'm now using a Yahoo! counter instead of the one from TheCounter.com. This is because TheCounter.com was bought by internet.com and the server was over in Europe and the response time was unbearable. The Yahoo! counter uses less code and it's much faster when loading. You can also see on the homepage that I've changed the advertisements around a bit. There is only 1 from Reel.com now.
4:30pm EDT Tuesday, May 2, 2000 AD
---I added a page that has a listing of all the combo point values for the Sega Swirl game. It's a puzzle game that was distributed through demo discs in the Official Sega Dreamcast Magazine a couple of times.
3:30pm EDT Thursday, April 27, 2000 AD
---The Video Game Links Page is a lot more orderly than it was before. I added more links and organized the ones that were already there. Everything there looks much better, but there's always going to be more added to it in the future.
---I just changed some of the colors and the look of the Jedi Name Page.
6:00pm EDT Wednesday, April 5, 2000 AD
---I only updated the Sonic Jam times for the challenges in the Sonic World part of the game.
12:30pm EST Tuesday, March 14, 2000 AD
---All the Fighters Megamix stuff is now connected to the Fighters Megamix Page. The original html file was getting too big, so I separated it into the parts seen on that page now.
6:00pm EST Friday, March 10, 2000 AD
---On 1 Feb. 2000 I bought Sonic Jam at Babbages. I'd been looking for this game for a while and I was elated when I saw it. It was pre-owned, but it's in great shape (and for only $20!). Anyway... in the Sonic World part of the game, there are "secret cards" that you can look at and there are also little time challenges that you can do. I've made a page that has a copy of all 7 secret cards (they have all the codes from Sonic 1 & 2). Also on the page, you can see my personal best times in each time challenge. I'll put up some more general Sonic stuff on that page later (like codes, etc.).
---My current big project is the Fighters Megamix FAQ. I've seen the ones at GameFAQS.com, and I knew that I could make a better one than those. Mine is in HTML format (not *.TXT) and it will have all the character's moves, secrets, and my own personal records.
---I've been really busy (and I will be for quite some time), so I haven't updated the TI programs. It'll be a long while before I update the Video Game Links page or the Links Page so don't hold your breathe for those. There's just so much else to do, those will have to wait.
---I also got Crazy Taxi on 5 Feb. 2000, so in a little while, I'm going to make a page that has my personal best scores & times.
5:30pm EST Thursday, January 27, 2000 AD
---Only minor changes were made to most of my pages. I added a type of footer at the bottom of the pages. The "footer" has a link back to the home page and an e-mail link, all surrounded by 2 horizontal rules. Pretty soon, I'll add more programs and update all the TI stuff.
2:00am EST Wednesday, December 22, 1999 AD
---I moved everything over to the new server last Saturday, and all is well. New additions to the homepage: 3 advertisements at the bottom (Reel.com, Action Ace, and Barnes & Noble) are all from the Pages That Pay program offered by Yahoo! GeoCities. If you ever want to buy stuff online, make sure you go to those sites through the advertised link because I get a small percentage of the revenue. It's probably really puny but it's something, right? In the upper right-hand corner of the Home Page there is a little thing called an Ad Square. It's a mandatory thing that Yahoo! puts on all pages when downloaded. It's kind of annoying because it's always the last thing to load, but there is a link to my profile and an email link. I also moved all the little rectangular add links to the top of the page.
---I decided to delete the counter by Aaddzz.com because it just wasn't keeping up with the one provided by TheCounter.com.
---There's a new format for everything TI related now. All the TI related links (including the link to the TI-83 Calculator Program page) are on one page called the TI Calculator Page. I think it will make everything more organized and easier to find.
2:00am EST Saturday, December 18, 1999 AD
---I'm starting the move to the Yahoo! GeoCities server from the current Pegasus server, so everything will be hectic for the next day as I try to edit code, examine links, and contact free web services to change address locations.
2:00am EST Sunday, December 12, 1999 AD
---TI-83 Programs page: added APPROX and EEEEEE; modified: DEFAULT
---I added some more Laplace transforms to the Math Formulas page.
---Pretty soon I'm going to move the site to Yahoo! GeoCities. They have 12MB of free space (I think I only get about 3MB on the Pegasus server) and I've used Yahoo! Mail for years and it's been reliable when I've used it. Their service provides lots of free tools and add-ins for web pages (the pages will hopefully load faster). I think it will be a good improvement.
4:00am EST Saturday, November 27, 1999 AD
---The Home Page now links to this page called My Stuff. From now on, this page will be like a starting point (besides the Home Page, of course) to get to all other pages contained at this site. The Home Page used to link to the Links Page, but I think that this way will be better. The Links Page has many of my favorite links on the Internet, but none of the pages made by me personally for this site. The My Stuff page will contain links to all the html documents that I've made, as well as an easy link to the Links Page.
---I've modified the Video Game Links, the Links Page, and the TI-83 Programs pages. I just rearranged some of the links to make it more orderly, and don't forget that they're still under construction so there's always more to be done on those two. I just slightly modified the font in the TI-83 Programs page.
---Some new pages I've added are the Jedi Name page and the Math Formulas Page. For the Jedi Name page, I got the idea from http://www.ign.com because they had something just like it once, so I give credit to them for its concept. The Math Formulas page is something that I was interested in doing for the good of the people (j/k). It's a good reference if you're taking math, science, or engineering courses (which I'm doing), so I thought it'd be useful. If you ever need a proof of any of the trigonometric or hyperbolic formulas, just let me know because I've proved them all. Some of the identities I give on the page aren't even in any math books that I could find.
---Lastly, the Home Page now uses a counter from TheCounter.com because the one from Aaddzz.com was giving me trouble. It wouldn't register some hits when the page was loaded from an IE browser (which is the one I use most of the time), and it wouldn't display the number of hits when viewed with IE.
