Well!

Here's how it happened.

CD's are read by lasers right? And lasers are light right? WELL! The light SHINES on the CD, but then the CD turns into ICE!! And...and it spins very fast! So fast that it produces excess energy that is transformed into interspace pandimensional baby carrots. These carrots are eaten by the Bunnies of God, which only have one tooth that has a large crack down the middle making it look like they have two teeth which they sorta do but don't, because it's just one tooth.

Anyway, that's why your CD cracked.

Put a video of Pamala andersons b00bs singing that to the tune of Disco inferno, and you have the next AYB.

I learned from Diablo CD, when it shattered. I've made backups of every single one of my Blizzard games ever since then...My Diablo 2 play disc went west also, I didn't back it up at the time so I've got two of them sitting here. =(

I think it's the stress from spinning too fast that causes CDs to crack. And today they're spinning faster than ever (I've seen a 62x CDROM drive someplace) I have several cracked CDs myself.

WHO ARE YOU?

These psuedo-roleplay accounts with the giant pictures in their sigs are everywhere and there's no way in hell I'll believe they aren't all the same person so OUT WITH IT.

OUT, DAMN YOU.

It's FRED!

Or at least that's what I figured.

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

Well, they all have the same long sig pic, they're all from Fennin Ro, and they all started showing up right after he returned.

Grammar is your enemy! - While being able to understand someone's sentences might seem like a good idea for a proper essay, complaining on a forum scarcely leaves time for such trivialities. Write fast! You're angry, grrr! Make that show, and forget about things like capital letters, punctuation, and verbs.

stress fractures. I've noticed the trend with Blizzard games, no matter how much of the game is installed, that cd is being spun and accessed the entire time.


my DSL software cd has a stress fracture in it, but luckily enough the drive can still read the cd.

This is why I try to find CD cracks for all my games, even if I'm not pirating them.

Hmm... Try a CD repair kit? There just might be one that can do stress fractures... I dunno, though.
