Bob the Hamster: TMC, 202.156.8.11 resolves to 202-156-8-11.cache.maxonline.com.sg and the .sg top-level domain is for Singapore. A traceroute to that IP shows traffic passing through Tokyo Japan. Who in the community lives in Songapore? It has been so long since I worked with the .FOR lump, that I don't actually know what is correct.

Mike C.: I think the current (i.e., pre guest change) description is correct. Although, I believe TMC's question was more rhetorical, as in "who does 202.156.8.11 think they are?!"

Inferior Minion: I just verified that the current description is indeed the correct format for the .FOR lump. Whoever changed it misread the Enemy Data set thinking there was only 1 block of 4 INTs (bytes 0 - 15) for all 8 enemies, when it really contains 8 blocks (bytes 0 - 31), 1 for each of the 8 enemies.

S'orlok Reaves: Yes, let's clear this mystery up once and for all. While writing a .RPG parser, I misread 8 as 4, and ended up with a bunch of extra ints-per record (16, 4 for each enemy I'd skipped.) Shoulda signed up for an account before changing this, sorry!

The Mad Cacti: So the response to "who is 202.156.8.11??" is "a new OHR developer", which is good news :)

Bob the Hamster: I think the {{WIP:inline}} tags remained on the battle animating backdrop feature because it remained quite buggy until very recently (and actually, I think we may evcen have one bug still open on it)
