    The simulation is now creeping along at around one toss every few seconds.
    I clicked the "Animate" button and was shocked to see that it's performing
    simulations where the cube bounces hundreds of times per toss!

    I don't know, seems a bit unrealistic for a simulation?

    I don't know... they say on the site that they're pointing to a billion combinations of throws, so somewhere in that billion there should be some wicked throws... it's possible that someone on a 100th floor of a sky scraper wants to throw a cuboid out the window and see how it lands...

    Geez...it must have been spinning at a million rpm when it went out the window! LOL

    Can we get the person who threw it to play for the NY METS? \:D/

    Oh it's running.
    It's just not showing the full animation.

    When you click on animate it will slow down for so many seconds and show you
    the full animation of the simulation in progress after which it will speed up again.

    Welcome numibesi! Long time no see

    The client is just like that, it starts showing the cuboids jumping and spinning, but after a few seconds it speeds up and stops showing the animation.
    I guess it's a good thing, instead of using the cpu power to show the animations it reverts full power to the calculations, but even so I feel that it should have a place to click where it would set the animation to keep showing indefinetly. I like to see the cuboids jumping and spinning.

    Whoa. Hey numibesi. It's been a long time. You probably don't remember me though, I wasn't that active until many months ago.

    Good to see you here though.

    PS: Is it me? Or has simulations gone slower? Even without the full sims running, it takes a couple seconds do 1 sim. Before the # constantly when up each second. :?

    The Cuboids stats were a bit crazy today. Everybody lost points, places were swapped, I even became team No. 1.

    But that is back to normal now. Tomorrows stats will look odd because everyone will have massive gains.

    C'est la vie.
