I thin it is pronounced, 'e'Ngo-níg-nè'oth.

There are now three ways to add YouTube videos:

1. Paste entire URL. Only works on the forums.
2. [youtube*]video id[/youtube*] without the *'s. Must be used in the database
3. [youtubehd*]video id[/youtubehd*] without the *'s. Must be used in the database. This for HD videos.

^Do all of those work on SSC too?

**BGTKing** · #54 06-20-2009, 01:41 PM

Only the regular youtube one works on SSC right now.

It's pronounced en-GON-ig-nee-oth.

That's actually just a word I made up about 10 years ago. I used to have a program where you type words in, and then you click this playback button, and it speaks what you wrote (sort of like the Audio Preview on YouTube). So one day I was fooling around with it, and one word literally came out as "Ngonigneoth." Of couse, back then I was deep into saving weird words, so when I tried to come up with a new name for my next ball machine, I found that very old list, and as such, I thought that would be a good name for some gargantuan-sized ball machine, which I will build once I take KK down.

I dont think I will be visiting here too often. Mostley just the main SSC. Maby Il visit here one or twice a month...

**BGTKing** · #57 06-20-2009, 04:25 PM

Whatever floats your boat.

**Maxlaam** · #58 06-20-2009, 06:21 PM

I'm already visiting this more often than SSC, haha.

**MP thrill rides** · #59 06-20-2009, 06:43 PM

I really like this site. I visit it just as much as I visit SSC. I like how even though it is a sister site to SSC it is actully a lot different. Which is hard to do with the same type of forum software.

Love the site BGT. It can hopefully inspire me to make some contraptions rather than just coasters out of K'nex.

I've decided to abbreviate it as N'Goth...

Not at the moment, but more staff will likely be added later on.

Top_Thrill_Dragster33 · #64 06-21-2009, 04:42 PM

Uh-oh, TTD33 showed up. You know what that means right?

PARTY!!!

**Maxlaam** · #65 06-21-2009, 04:55 PM

Just what we need, parties always draw huge amounts of people to a place!

Go TTD33!!

**The KNex Weasel** · #66 06-21-2009, 05:06 PM

Now THERE's something to advertise!

Anyway, I just did a gig for a Father's Day event, with which I had to play a bunch of songs from the Curious George movie (and the music itself is pretty good, actually), as well as a few Jazz standards. And then tomorrow, I start work as the rehearsal pianist for a production of "Hello, Dolly."

LukeIsLuke · #67 06-21-2009, 05:56 PM

You know, I really didn't think I would like this site, and it would be a pain coming back and forth from this and SSC, but I really think its a good idea now.

**BGTKing** · #68 06-21-2009, 10:12 PM

Thanks for the words. We are trying to make this a site that produces entirely different content than SSC. Going to be a little slow at first, but then it should almost seem unrelated to SSC.

lazor 22 · #69 06-21-2009, 11:42 PM

Anyone want me to post my failed attempt at a gatorade dispenser?

Everything on it is Manuel. It has a "reset" switch that has to be pressed every time.

**BGTKing** · #70 06-22-2009, 09:07 AM

There's no reason not to.

**Maxlaam** · #71 06-22-2009, 03:04 PM

Yeah, post it, show BGT your love! (For the website)

LukeIsLuke · #72 06-22-2009, 03:55 PM

^Lol Thats getting sigg'd
Is it just me, or is this site loading so slow today. SSC is fine, but this takes like 2 minutes a page.

P-) (PIRATE SMILEY FTW!)

I fixed your accidental DP, but kept the "Pirate" smiley because it looks cool. P-)
