What happens if you phone 1-800-idgames?
>>
it's a 1-800 number faggot, just call it
>>
>>3230390
probably a sex hotline, like the one from who framed roger rabbit on NES is.
>>
>>3230390
Shame nobody from old iD is left to answer the number. Could be a private line to Tom Hall or something?
>>
>>3230390
John Romero answers and makes you his bitch
>>
>>3230390
An automated voice asks for your 16 digit card number. Doesn't specify further.
>>
>>3230390
The Doomed Dimension?
>>
>>3230910
If true, I know its a phishing scam. But how cool would it be if back in the day id sent millions of copies of doom to a third party distributor then never told them to stop. Now the number still went to the distributors and they send a new copy when you put in your number...
>>
>>3230390
>But we both know you'll be punished by God if you do.

Ah, if only I had a fedora to tip in 1996...Alas, I was but a 8 years old lad.
>>
>>3231385
back when video games were made by fedora wearing neckbeards for fedora wearing neckbeards.
>>
God I miss when "epic" was a noun instead of an adjective.
>>
It's sponge's number. And when he answers it he doesn't apologize for fucking up Quake Live so many years then making it P2P for new players and giving us dedicated servers so we can finally LAN after the game was completely killed off.
>>
>>3230390
black people will find out where you live
>>
>>3230390
The immigration law office that is now in the old iD "cube" building will answer.
>>
>>3233002
Epic post!
Epic has been out of popular use for a while now, m8. You can use it without fear of misunderstanding. Also, it was always possible to use as an adjective. Before the internet got hold of it, even.
>>
>>3230390
Well, I called the hotline for blake stone one and it still works.
>>
>>3230397
>probably a sex hotline,

800 is toll free you twat.
>>
why so many e-celeb memers on this board?
>>
>>3233776
>it was always possible to use as an adjective
Don't even bother trying to explain language to 80's babies. They also think that the word "meme" wasn't around until the Internet.
>>
>>3233048
Thats not how phone numbers work.
>>
>>3233837
There are 800 number sex line.
You have to enter credit card before they do anything though. I used to call them on the payphones in high school to listen to the sultry welcome voices.

this.

>one fourth
>ameripunks can't into quarters
>unless it's with reference to the 25 cent coin, it seems
>>
>>3234221

It's referring to the 25% of the game that came with the shareware version of the game you dumb fuck millennial fetus.
>>
>>3234264
Yes, 25% as in ONE QUARTER! You stupid fuck! Who the hell calls it a fourth? I suppose you call a half a second?

holy shit go back to third grade
>>
>>3234331
It's called a quarter you dumb fucker. You Yanks even use the term for your 25 cent coin, so why confuse the issue.

It's a fucking quarter, not a "fourth". Just like it's a half, not a "second".

>>3234356
right, so come and try to force me to say a quarter.

Pussy ass faggot.
>>
Of all the dumb shit to argue about, some European who doesn't speak English properly derails it.

The real situation is that both "one quarter" and "one fourth" are accurate and interchangeable.
>>
>>3234368
At least we're consistent. You should start calling your quarter coin a fourth if you love the term so much.

>>3234354
Yeah I know what you're saying but I don't make the rules. But trust the Yankees to break them.
>>
>>3234360
Tell me where you live, pay for my plane ticket(s) and give me some inconvenience money on top and I might consider it.

You don't have a leg to stand on since you adopted the American fashion of coin mintage. Maybe you should go back to shillings and farthings if you don't like our mintage, m8.
>>
>>3234401
At least the back of our coin is the right way up. You have to flip yours vertically to see the other side. You don't do that with book pages, flyers, etc, so why coins?

Do you really think America invented decimalised money? If so, then why don't you use the metric system in general?

Didn't France decimalise everything after the revolution, including money?
>>
>>3234221
Doom is split into four episodes and you just played one out of four episodes hence one fourth. Saying it's a quarter could mean the rest of the game is all one episodef omkew fe wmo
>>
>>3234264
>>3234458

Jesus Christ, I know that! My point is it's stupid to call it a fourth when the term is a quarter. I know he means the shareware edition contains 0.25 of the full game content FFS!
>>
>>3234468
>>3234458

Anyway it's Quake not Doom.
>>
>>3234436
We took your fucking penny denomination, made a system where a hundred pennies is a dollar, and then you fuckers decided in the 70s, wow, I sure like what America did with our penny let's do it too, fuck this shilling and crown nonsense.

I never said America invented decimalized money systems, they stole that idea from Spain (not France) but you stole America's system because you did exactly what they did - you based your currency on a standard unit and decided that the standard penny was one one-hundredth of its worth.

I usually use the term fourth, and I'm not a yankee, still under the Queen because it's 2016.
>>
>A quarter
>A fourth
>Not a half of a half


Why the hell are you people even arguing about something so petty? Do you people just sit around looking through the boards for an excuse to call someone else retarded?
>>
>>3234631
You don't?
>>
>>3234115
I know, bad joke. The black cube is now mostly an immigration law office and some kind of bazaar though. Their (well, the husk of iD's) new office is pretty boring.
