Thoughts
The Playground model, by Shamus Young.

I love that playground analogy.

More Shamus, for those interested. +1 from me. 

Other random information about this project:
 * Warcraft III TFT map, TD-esque
 * Units spawn periodically, you need to stop them
 * They become stronger and stronger automatically (+150 max health per 240 sec for 1 hour, prone to change)
 * You have 20 lives
 * The spawns do not stop until you have no lives left (i.e. you ALWAYS LOSE, sucker)
 * 1-2 players; going to be hard to balance without someone to playtest it once it's finally somewhere close to done.
 * Towuh idea at the moment: You get 1 pre-built tower with 3 Lightning skills (red, green, blue) and a builder
 * Each laser is upgraded individually by building in pens (pig pens, with poo).
 * Tier 2 upgrade is bought from tier 1 upgrade building and so on.
 * The reason behind this is that it seemed like an easy way to upgrade a skill. I'm so stupid.
 * The builder has a one-use spell that spams lightning strikes at an area, dealing ~300 damage (needs buff) if an unbuffed* unit runs through. Also ministuns.
 * It's a Channeling spell; you cannot upgrade your lasers whilst channeling!
 * Might make it re-usable once ever 5-15 minutes or something. It probably sucks at the moment :P
 * Spawn timer goes down by killing enemies quickly enough
 * First spawn wave is a simple Conductor unit. 300 health, nothing special.
 * If you get the timer down from 5 to 4 seconds, a Greater Lamb is added to the spawns.
 * At 3 seconds, another G. Lamb is added.
 * When you reach 2 seconds, a Charmer is added. Charmers have an aura (aforementioned buff*) which adds movement speed (25%)
 * After 1 hour, the upgrade center of the enemies is destroyed by a spontaneous lightning strike summoned from your side of the battle. You get all happy and shit, but quickly notice you only fucked yourself. Vengeance is spawned, which researches 6 times faster (40 sec vs. 240 sec). This will be your eventual doom, and it's inevitable. Additionally, if the timer is not 2 seconds yet, it will be.
 * The only way to be 'good' in this map is by getting a good score:
 * # Conductors killed (few points)
 * # G. Lambs killed (slightly more)
 * # Charmers killed (at least triple of G. Lambs)
 * Time spent alive (more for time spent alive with Vengeance up and running)
 * Time when 2-sec timer was initiated (if this is even possible to do)
 * # Kills is also tracked in a leaderbord per player
 * Additionally, if the thing finally is functional, I plan to add at least one higher difficulty for masochists, possibly an easier difficulty for pussies.

To do/done/ideas

 * Vengeance is not added yet (unit is made, no triggers for it; easy task)
 * Points are not calculated yet (nothing time consuming though, I think)
 * Builder's Lightning Storm is free with a 3 sec recharge or something (add a mana cost of 1, fixed)
 * My own bughunting cheats may or may not still work (You figure it out :D )
 * Spawns are initially blocked (Lightning Storm or type unblock to... unblock)
 * Few upgraded versions of skills exist (damage goes up by 33% per D upgrade, but at what cost?)
 * No mana regen upgrade Made it, but needs balancing probably. Most notably the regen amount vs. its cost vs. mana consumption. Fully functional.
 * Upgrading your skills does not function.
 * No special skills yet (have some ideas; More ideas are welcome)
 * Note: Your Spire has 30 mana total.
 * Yes, these skills are meant to be fucking strong. Enemies' health caps at over 20k.
 * Then again, if you make it till 20k hp, you're a fucking GOD (Maxing each laser yields 7.5k per cast, 4r per, 3 targets with 17% damage loss (third target takes 5167 damage).
 * You cannot get these skills until you get the 2 second timer.
 * If you know where the names are from, you get one cookie, and are deemed Awesome if you didn't use Google.
 * Morphogenesis: 10 sec Polymorph in target area (enough to morph 1 wave). Deals 150 damage per second. 10m, 10r (1 in every 5 waves is morphed, should be fine)
 * Timewave Zero: Crushing Wave clone, slows. 2000 damage. Can be cast across one entire lane (i.e. you can hit several waves with it per cast, hence the ~low damage). 15m, 20r
 * Quantumleaper: Target enemy is returned to a spawn point and takes 750 damage. 2m, 3r (?)
 * Veil of Illusions: Summons a wall that when touched summons a unit to attack nearby units. ?m ?r ?dur ?illusion stats (Heck, I don't even know if it's possible)
 * Dreaming 24/7: Enemies in target area (~1 wave large) fall asleep... Until you awaken them. 10m 20r
 * Artificial Sun Projection: Summon an Artificial Sun with a Flak Cannons clone (AoEz are gud), lasts for 45 seconds. On creation, deals 750 damage and stuns for 3 seconds. Moves. Time of day is frozen at 12:00 whilst the Artificial Sun lives. 15m, 45r
 * Three-Dimensional Shadow: Vengeance clone. ?m/r/dur/dam (depends on viability, but should be fine. Sux at first (few resurrects), but rapes near end. Lasts longer than average, but is expensive?)
 * Underneath the Surface: Stuns, plays the Soul Theft animation (2 zombie hands pop up from the ground and pull a blue orb underground) and kills the target as the hands go under. 5m, 5r (either under- or overpowered, depends on how much rapage your Lightning skills are. Good for Charmers, since it always kills)
 * Most Improbable Skill To Date (that's likely the name I'm going with): Leap Attack. With a freaking tower. 10000 damage, small stun, cannot shoot lightning whilst tower is leaping. Return to position after leaping. Exceedingly rare roll. 5m, 10r. (credit goes to Progger)
 * Leaderbord (how hard can it be?)
 * Difficulties, possibly.

So yeah, early stages :D
 * Progressively faster spawn timer is functional.
 * Initial research stone is active, upgrades every 240 sec. (might need tweaking)
 * Created all upgrade buildings/items/abilities for the three skills (D1/etc. goes for all three skills I hope, so it wasn't too much). Took a day.
 * Reduced initial buildings to 1 per side.
 * Completed basic skills.
 * Standard abilities: 778 vs. Custom abilities: 898. And there's a couple to come (15 something? Need ideas!)

You can ask me for the map at any time, and I'd be willing to send you the most recent version (I don't keep old versions. I do keep the units, triggers and spells of old versions). Don't expect much to work at the time, and don't expect a lot to happen in one week. I'm not spending a lot of time on this.-->

My personal playground for screwing up coding!

Funny stuff. example: someone help me think of an eye catching phrase or something about me. hm your nickname rhymes with 'wank'  Spacewank! gr... not to do with my NICK well, you said about you :P yes, me. not my nick. I am not my nick. I am me.  if you re-arrange the letters, you get "spankmace" your nick has to do with you not really. GRR USELESS  :D which is almost "spank mice" you could also rearrange it to say MSPancake! I hate you.
