Default Awesome Star Wars ASCII animation

I think our vampiric mod will especially get a kick out of this one.....

First, play this soundtrack for background music:



Then, in Windows go to START > RUN

Type the following command: telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl

Hit ENTER and enjoy!

If it doesn't work, you might not have Telnet installed on your PC. Here's how to (it's a standard Windows app):

Thumbs up

Unfortunately I'm operating off my "Little Fruit of Doom" at the moment and can't indulge in the greatness that appears above. Should I retain power in the morning (been having storms here as of late) I will most definitely check this out and report back accordingly.

I'm so excited!!!!

Kind of hard if you have a real computer instead of a PC

It works on my Mac just fine. Just run the command in Terminal.

Some people have waaaaay to much time on their hands. That said, that was awesome!

I'm going to disregard that, Mister.

Going to watch it now. I'll edit this post accordingly after I'm finished.

EDIT: Well, it's very impressive and fun! While I love the Imperial March, I'm not sure if I like it playing throughout the entire ASCII sequence. It needs the official SW Theme.

heh, agreed. I was actually trying to look for that one first, but couldn't find it on YT. A long version, I mean. So I settled for what I thought was the next best thing
