Because getting kicked that many times will hurt:

Krzysztof,

Well, duh!

I spent enough time getting into people's heads, I know how to motivate people.

I wanted to create a game in Popfly : "Kick Ayende" (similar to www.ridiculopathy.com/crappy_flash_games.php)

Player would have to kick Ayende certain number of times within a time limit, and if he did, he'd win and Ayende would release Windsor.

But apparently I suck at Popfly :/

Ahh your IDF training should have make you harder than that!!!

Neil,

My IDF training tells me that I am able to handle harder than that, yes.

It also tell me that it is stupid to do so.

I skimmed the release carefully and didn't see if it works in .NET 2.0.

If not what makes it incompatible?

Thanks!

Ayende Rahien

Will,

It doesn't work on .Net 2.0

We use 3.5 syntax and some minor 3.5 API

The issue is that there isn't much requirement for 2.0 support anymore

There is a branch for 2.0 compatability, though
