Amoebic Dysentery are a goregrind band from Atlanta, Georgia. They are noteworthy for being the first goregrind band to wear white HAZMAT suits on stage during performances and their occasional clean vocals. They've used samples from South Park, Beavis and Butthead, Happiness and Austin Powers.

GameDev.net is a website dedicated to game development launched in June 1999 by Kevin Hawkins, Dave Astle, Michael Tanczos, John Munsch, and Don Thorp, among others. It serves as a central trade resource and media outlet for the video game industry, with particular regards to hobbyist and independent developers, who form a community. The site features articles, forums, blogs, jobs, contractors, contests, developer profiles, and more.
4 Elements contest
GameDev.net used to host a well known annual competition known as the "4 Elements" contest (abbreviated 4E, usually followed by the numerical iteration), which typically started in September and lasted for 6 months. It was a sponsored game development competition that required the contenders to create a game based on four different elements (revealed before the start of the competition). The contest was originally centered around the classical elements, although the focus has since shifted to random and seemingly unrelated elements to encourage innovations in game play rather than graphics.
