nope.... they hold an "ancient Chinese secret." ALL flags may give happines or cause pain grasshopper A clue is... "Watch the flag fly to see when reward is your for the taking."

I thought the death flags and good flags alternated? Doesn't someone have to grab a death flag before a good flag resurfaces? No, Des. Each flag alternates back and forth itself between good and evil. You watch for the cue it's good and then grab it. The only thing that changes is that after you grab it, whether good or bad, it then appears in the alternate location. Once it's grabbed from the alternate location, it appears back in the first location, etc.

I changed the health logic so that now you will end up with 150 health after grabbing a flag, no matter what it was previously.

I don't know if you already have an in-game message for the flags. Like the prox mines thing (LP FLAGS: RESTOCKS HEALTH, AIR SRIKES AND PROX MINES. PRESS USE To RECIEVE.) Something like that, because I have seen many people ask when members where on and I just typed in the response.
(Lam, what does your sig mean? I think the first part is death, but I couldn't figure out the rest.)

Is it death to leeters?
Its looks similar to the old pager language. Where instead of |)3@7|-| 2 13373|25 !!
it would be...
93674 70 73373125 Death to Leet e r s

I have a guess.... "Death to Letters"? A reference to the binary code of compuuters being superior as this code "runs" everything now in our society (as opposed to letters)?

AIGAD has it right. Death to leeters. I can't stand people who use leet. I think its one of the most annoying things to try to read on-line. There's especially no excuse for in on forums where there's no space or time limit. You've got all day long to compose readable sentences using real words and proper sentence structure with punctuation.

Ok, do you really have a program that converts English to leet? Must be, because you made a syntax error in sentence 4 and it also exists in your leet-enese.
Oddly enough, I was able to read the leet paragraph without too much difficulty. I completely agree, though, that it is out of freaking control. I see handwritten notes from my daughter to her friends that have this crap in it, and it nearly causes me to lose my composure. Why is it so cool to pretend to be so stupid?

Thanks for the references, Lam. I'm guessing this definition matches (5b, that is):
5. 1337 Once used by the hacker community as sort of a sub-culture language, ANYONE using this type of speak in the present day in age is either:
A) A clueless net newbie who somehow thinks its still "cool" to speak this way.
B) A veteren net user who uses it to parody the type of people mentioned in example A.
u r n0t 1337 d00d!!11
Oh, and this definition was posted in 2002! Boy, do I feel naive.

Yes, I don't really do leetspeak, so I cheated and used a translator for that example. So my spelling error was duplicated too. I meant to type "There's especially no excuse for it on forums..." That translator isn't true leet. It does a letter by letter conversion, where true leet would be spelled phonetically.
