meaningless to most, but meaningful to a few. Finished the first loop.

Could somone give me the meaning of this please? I am pretty sure it's some game but I don't know what one. Enlighten me!

Also: Earlier in the thread people were talking about their videogame purchases, and I'd like to get my two cents in.
Don't forget that there's a ton of awesome old DOS games and open source games out there, all for free. Certainly at least some of these will be ones your friends have never played! A couple of good sites for DOS are http://www.abandonia.com/ and http://hotud.org/. I've played (or at least dipped into) loads of good DOS games that I never played when they originally came out. I think one reason I play DOS games is that they're free and many of them are really good. They haven't really aged despite the introduction of shiny new 3D engines, etc etc.

One game I really must recommend is Dwarf Fortress. Great stuff! It's probably the most 'fun' game on my HD at the moment. By that I mean that I think I get the most enjoyment out of it.There's some awesome tutorials out there: the Complete and Utter Newbie Tutorial for Dwarf Fortress is still great, if outdated; it can teach you the basics. Find it at http://afteractionreporter.com/2009/02/09/the-complete-and-utter-newby-tutorial-for-dwarf-fortress-part-1-wtf/. You can then head over to the Dwarf Fortress Wiki at df.magmawiki.com/ for more info. Also Captnduck's DFVIDTUTS are pretty great. Search him out on YouTube. As for the controls which so many complain about... all I can say is, persevere. I guess I found it easier because I'm used to using half-baked or arcaic commandline and open source software interfaces.

Minecraft is another recommendation if you like Legos, but it costs money. Way easier to get into though. Buy it at http://www.minecraft.net/

EDIT: Oh and if you like racing games then Supertuxkart at http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/ is really very polished for a open source project. No doubt there's some good DOS/NES/other old ones available too.

Thanks! That's one I haven't seen yet.

Whats it supposed to be?

I guess it is a bit small. I've stopped work on it for now, it was really too small to do anything with.

So. What it is supposed to be is a mage/wizard/whatever-you-call-it casting a spell. However I guess it's too small to recognize.

Now... what shall I try next? 

What do you mean?

I cancelled the project because I wanted to start off with something smaller.
