Title: I guess this is the end...

Well with the elite hacked , ExpertGamer lying about his times , ppl who want to quit , I guess that now you have to close the Elite...It's the funniest and most ridiculous thing I've ever seen actually...
How the @#%$ did I spare 33 days of my life playing PD ? I'll say it was to compete with my French pals , maybe it will be less ridiculous than to say it was to compete with some fools...

Whatever.
The elite is dead.Byebye.

Here's the latest.  Derek is going to attempt to get a hold of our domain provider... again.  Man, they are not going to be happy to be hearing from us for the second time in a week, especially with such an embarassing problem...  Nevertheless, we MAY be able to solve the situation that way, although it is likely to take several days.

In the meantime, I have been trying out various possible new passwords to get back site access, but nothing works so far.  You've got to figure that he made up something in that strange language of his, but I don't really know it well enough make any accurate guesses.

well what does it say.

On further note, if we do get the PDE and GEE back, haxor would probably just do it again.

There has been one hell of a lot of weird stuff going on recently.  Shame that we didn't get to see the April Fool's gag this year.  Ah well.  Did Expert really lie or was that an April 1st joke too?

The binary is your rank or total score

1000001 = 65 = my rank atm

1 million in binary is....  11110100001001000000.  Worked that out with the old 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128..... method.  There's got to be an easier way of doing it by hand.  Come on Sam or Snap.  What is it.

result = empty so far

while(x > 0){
remainder = x mod 2 (ie, divide it by 2, take the remainer)
put the remainder (a 1 or 0) at the front of your result string

x = x divide 2 (halve it and floor it.. get rid of anything after the decimal point)
}

the result strings holds your binary number.

to go backwards, say you have 11010110:
11010110 = 2**7 + 2**6 + 2**4 + 2**2 + 2**1

(sum of powers of 2, index starts from the back, counting from 0 upwards)
