Psylons
The Psylons were a UK post-punk band formed in Portsmouth 1984 by Keith Wyatt, Carl Edwards, Jack Packer and Warren Grech. The band produced four singles, an EP and two albums, the second of which, “Gimp” was produced by Jim Shaw of Cranes. The debut single “Run To The Stranger” was a New Musical Express Single of the Week and reached number 13 in the Alternative/Indie chart. Two sessions were recorded for BBC Radio One and broadcast on the John Peel and Andy Kershaw shows.
Over the next few years the band gigged extensively and supported many acts including The Fall, My Bloody Valentine, Cranes, Spiritualized and Moonshake.
After a number of personnel changes the band finally split in 1995.
Keith Wyatt, Jack Packer and Simon Heartfield continue to record as electronic act Seatman Separator.
John Haskett is currently front of house sound engineer for Killing Joke.

Balance (game design)
In game design, balance is the concept and the practice of tuning a game's rules, usually with the goal of preventing any of its component systems from being ineffective or otherwise undesirable when compared to their peers. An unbalanced system represents wasted development resources at the very least, and at worst can undermine the game's entire ruleset by making important roles or tasks impossible to perform.
Balancing and fairness
Balancing does not necessarily mean making a game fair. This is particularly true of action games: Jaime Griesemer, design lead at Bungie, said in a lecture to other designers that "every fight in Halo is unfair". This potential for unfairness creates uncertainty, leading to the tension and excitement that action games seek to deliver. In these cases balancing is instead the management of unfair scenarios, with the ultimate goal of ensuring that all of the strategies which the game intends to support are viable. The extent to which those strategies are equal to one another defines the character of the game in question.

The Only Other Way
by: GimpWhat do you mean I'm trying to be known?
Seems that you'll never be my friend
Now the little things I get
Six months! Six months! Six months!
Things were happening.
What do you mean I'm trying to be known?
What they don't understand is this is everything
What they don't understand is this is what they did to him
What they don't understand is this is what happens everyday
What they don't understand is this is the only other way for me, me, me, me
Sing for hours with me
Down to the little things I get
To be my fucking hero
Know that I'll always be your slave
Six months! Six months! Six months!
Things were happening
What do you mean I'm trying to be known?
What they don't understand is this is everything
What they don't understand is this is what they did to him
What they don't understand is this is what happens everyday
What they don't understand is this is the only other way for me
Lost boy,
Wanting but unwanted
Dead boy,
Will understand but never understood
He tried to run away,
The only other way that he knew that he ever could
Lost boy
One day I'll run away,
See the world in its own little way
One day I'll fade away,
No one'll care,
No one will say:
“Lost boy,
Where've you been?
What've you done?
What'd you see?
Why'd you run from us when you know we really care?
Yes you know we really care”.
Lost boy,
We were dead without you
Hard boy,
You tried so hard but you're always second
Best boy,
Means nothing to us but it means the world to him
But it means the world to him.
What they don't understand
What they don't understand
What they don't understand
What they don't understand
What they don't understand
