Everyone says Dev's/Gm's are lazy, don't do nuttin, etc. Well I am here to prove you wrong. I spent 6 hours with a half as hard programming system then what the gm's use, just to finally perfect this simple script with no bugs.

I seriously spent 6 hours on this. Code has to be perfect. I drank 4 cups of coffee, ate 5 burritos, and smoked a pack of cigarettes.......

Code:

#In order to use/view/edit this code, you must have Python 2.5.1 installed on your computer. This is for windows users. If -
#the installation asks you to update anything, press ignore, its a retard. Once installed go to Python, Python IDLE (GUI), then -
#when it loads, go to file, New window, in the new window, copy and paste this text into it. save as anything, BUT make sure it -
#ends with .py Example: Practice.py, then save as python file py, pyw, txt. After that, go back to the IDLE (GUI) and -
#hit file, open, and open the file you saved. Now, have fun and enjoy. Do not feel hesitant about editing the script, its a -
#good way to learn. Trust me, this shit took 6 ****ing hours. This is merely the beginning of Python programming. Enjoy ^_^

This was my first attempt at programming a basic program, with Python, ever. I've only been studying Python for.. 3 days now? Its fairly easy to learn, but a damn cranky ***** if you're not careful.

I hope this program will inspire the other community members to delve into programming.
