There are two things in particular that it [the computer industry] failed to foresee: one was the coming of the Internet(...); the other was the fact that the century would end.

Guerilla E-Warriors Guide to Cyberspace
Introduction: At the Speed of Light, Time Doesn't Matter.
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
Douglas Adams
Don't Panic. If you don't make it in time, it won't make any diffrence since you can simply close the computer window.
Remember, your best offence is your ability to zip out of any situation by closing the box, or in dire circumstances turning off the computer.
Part One: Getting to the Battle
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
Douglas Adams
So once you know where you have been posted, or where your mission is, you need to get there. Our tool of choice for getting from place to place is here. However, there is another way to get to your chosen place.
- Find your IP.
- Navigate your way down the Information Superhighway (ISH)
- Knock on the door politely.
Part Two: Using your Weapon
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
Douglas Adams
So we use Silly String instead. It was quite hard to create Cyber-Silly string but nevertheless, your average Guerilla E-Warrior will have a can or Two (or Three (or Four)) of Silly String at his disposal.
- Find Enemy
- Get Silly String
- Push down button.
Your enemy will then be covered in a string-like substance. With careful aiming you may even be able to write rude words on them. If you run out of Silly String... run. Run like the Wind.
Part Three: Victory
In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.
Douglas Adams
Once they surrender to your mighty fighting skills, you have one more job to do. You must make them put the Stamp of the Campaign on their site.
Then you can sit down, relax, and enjoy a nice cold .
Appendix: A Sobering Thought
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
