:by the way, it would be "past" not "passed"... unless thats what you MEANT, of course.
by the way, do you get an email for every post/comment someone puts up? becaues that jsut sucks. bigtime. thats like a thousand emials a minute. ninety percent of which are FIRST/IMAN@$$HOLE!!!
Graeme
:It is <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=passed">passed</a> rather than <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=past">past</a> - I just double checked.
I don't get an email each time, that would be a nightmare - I check the <a href="http://lazylaces.com/hotgossip.asp">hot gossip</a> to see what's going on.

:Oh come on people, it's a My Chemical Romance game!
Although, it is from the Helena video. That's the only song of theirs that I like because it's great trying to copy the dance.
Missbubsey
:I love My Chemical Romance. I have played the game many times and i love it a lot. it is kinda easy after a while becuase you can predict where they are going to go. i love My Chemical Romance.( ok i know i am repeating myself but they are a really good band)
Happy-girl
:im middle undead management, anyone doing better?
Tafkam
:though since you've posted God Tower and Clever Waste of Time, Hot Gossip is much less useful
it WAS interesting to see the increase in postings on long-dormant sites after you got PC Today's Site of the Day -- i'm assuming that was causal.
though there's also the phenomenon of people actually trolling through two- and three-year-old threads to find un-commented-on places to post "first!" disGUSTing! beyond pathetic! flesh-eating zombie brain-rotting awfulness!
Incog Neato
:Apparently I am a Total Otherworldly Badass. ;)
Sentinel
:ok. completed it.
1st phase you get the red and white ladies. Kill all the red ones and get the pall bearers.
2nd phase you get wheels. avoid the creatures crossing the road. The other cars shoot at you. you can push them off the road or shoot them.
3rd phase you are in a maze, you can only see the exits around you.. the rest of the screen is blank. Watch out for the white girls - when you find them you will be close to the exit. You have 60 seconds... good luck!
Thats it ...
Diego
:I actually think that this game is called "Helena" based on the song, but I'm not sure if it's the same song.
Gordon
:Ranked Total Netherworldly Bad Ass! whoopee!
Burgerz
:For the car bit just stay at the bottom and hit space, the undertakers can only hurt u by firing missiles, not hitting u pysically, so stay at the bottom and they wont have a chance to get u.
Glinda
:that was such a fun game.
Tafkam
:oh, actually it IS "past" -- "passed" is the past tense of "pass."
Beth
:to set things straight on the past/passed issue- past is correct. It's an adverb-you're going beyond something else.
Tafkam
:though it would be correct to write, say, "i passed my exams." or "i got passed by the committee." i.e. they passed me.
Sentinel
:pass is to achieve a target (or go beyond it, or even to send an object), so in this case, the target is to beat the driving level.
So the object is to get passed it.
Past is a historical time reference.
So in the furture you might say:
"In the past I passed the driving level"
Or didnt - if you gave up lol
Tafkam
:no, pass is a verb, and you don't "get passed" something unless it's passing you. any more than you "get eaten" something, or "get written" something. you can "get eaten" BY something, or "get passed" BY someone -- but that's not what you're talking about here.
you can, as you write, say "i passed the driving level" -- but that's not the same as "it was impossible to get passed." if you want to use the verb "pass," you'd write "it was impossible to pass."
you get past something the same way you get up to it, or beyond it. and, as you write, "past" is ALSO a noun, "the past."
Rae
:I minor in English. Tafkam and others are right. The correct use in Graeme's particular sentence would be "past". Going in a different direction: I love, love, looove MCR! I might go see them in concert in two weeks! Yay! Ermm...*clears throat*...have a nice day everyone.
Tafkam
:hi Rae!
great, maybe you can tell me -- is "past" as used in this context an adverb, or a preposition? "I went past" seems like it modifies the verb, which would make it an adverb -- but then what would be an example of its use as a preposition? "his leg extended past the end of the bed?"
obviously i'm NOT an English minor...
Ladybug
:wow, this was alot of fun! even though im not even good at it....
Luvie
:It's an adverb. If you're unsure go to dictionary.com.
Tafkam
:the problem is, it's a prepostion also. (AND an adjective, AND a noun.) and the example of its use as a preposition in my dictionary ("we drove past the station") isn't clearly different from an adverb, as far as i can tell.
Tia
:MY GOODNESS! Should we just leave it at...Graeme's use of 'past' in correct?
Sadly, at school, we never really got taught adverbs, verbs etc...in detail, but I did english literature in uni and I 'passed' it fine!:)
Tia
:scrap that ^.
Tia
:What I MEANT to say was, lets just say Graeme's use of 'passed' is right...I think both would be acceptable actually.
Tafkam
:Tia, how on EARTH did you pass (no need for quotation marks, it is a verb) Eng Lit if you think that grammar is something you decide by voting on it?
Tia
:Who said ANYTHING about voting, I just said leave it the way Graeme said it, no need for voting. English Lit is nothing to do with voting. I need quotation marks because I am quoting Graeme...thanks.
Tia
:Who said ANYTHING about voting, I just said leave it the way Graeme said it, no need for voting. English Lit is nothing to do with voting and I passed just fine THANK-YOU. I need quotation marks because I was quoting Graeme...thanks.
Tia
:Just as (as you say) I cant judge grammer on voting, YOU cannot judge whether I passed my english literature degree on a comment on a games website!
Ok, I think thats out of my system:)
Tafkam
:ooh, Tia, sorry -- i was teasing. if i really thought you really thought people got to vote on grammar, i'd shake my head but i wouldn't post a comment to you about it.
no, i was joking because it SOUNDED like you were advocating voting.
and obviously we leave it the way Graeme wrote it -- it's his site, plus there's no way to change it without his help (unless we hack the code, which i have no idea how to even begin doing).
as long as we recognise that leaving it that way doesn't make it CORRECT. that would be voting.
Tia
:SO SORRY Tafkam.
I got all heated up...cuz you were teasing, I though you were serious!
Im so ashamed lol:).
Tafkam
:aww don't be ashamed, it happens to me all the time because
1) i have a quirky and ironic sense of humour, and
2) i hate smiley-faces
so no-one ever knows when i'm joking (and i'm always surprised they take me seriously).
but you're absolutely right,, anyone who judges someone else based on what they type into a comments box on a website is judging a book by its cover, when the cover is glimpsed in the dark from across the street.
(not that that stops me from deciding that everyone who disagrees with me or says anything i don't like must be a flaming idiot lol.)
Tia
:yea it was a silly disagreement on my part...I was writing a loada...umm... bo**ocks!... lol, of course anyone who disagrees with you is an idiot, thats only natural!
P.S. Nice analogy about the book in the dark thing!
Debra
:Woo hoo! My ranking was "Total Otherworldly Badass" Very fun game.
Justme
:damn the totally zany <strike>english</strike> English language.

Justme
:hahahahaha i used correct english
Debra
:Oh, to pass the driving level: You can still shoot as a car-coffin. Would that be carffin? Anyway, space bar works to shoot the other cars and creatures.
Karlee

Justin H
