I asked the same question: It's nothing behind. One of Jeff's evil jokes :D

If the shirt's original colour was really pink for you and not magenta (like it was for me), ...

:eek: ugh, maybe you should fix your display ...

Are you talking about VoDT?
If you look for the instruction scrolls: you get them from Pangle, who lives in solitude on the hills. But he won't talk to you, before you talked to his friend in the village.
There is btw a fine walktrough for VoDT in the manual :)

DB, there is a walktrough with maps in the BoA-manual. For getting the heling device you will need quite a strong tool use skill (>15 as far I remember) ...

yes, it's "die Maschine".
It's normally never used in singular form, sounds very abstract like this. We rather would say: "Der Sturm der Maschine", if it's only one. "Der Maschine-Sturm"?.... well, confusing.
We would not use "Maschine" in connection with "Umsturz" because it points to the literally fall, not to the revolution.
But Maschine Umsturz is exotic and cryptic - even for Germans.

edit: ef, bist Du Deutsche?

Therefore I never go the movies but read the books.
I didn't see Matrix and assume that it has to do with intelligent/human machines. If the machines then conspire, riot and try a revolution, the term Maschinenrevolution makes sense. But nevertheless it's written with 3 "n"s.

....(.(( :) ...

Ah, you did mean revolution, TM! But "Maschine Umsturz"?

We know the "Industrielle Revolution" from the 18. century in England and western Europe. And hence the "Maschinensturm", a violent protest against the new machinery and the destruction of machines. I don't know, if that term exists in English. It comes from "stuermen", which means a violent assault of a place or building (e.g. "der Sturm auf die Bastille").

"Maschine Umsturz" still doesn't say anything, even if you put the missing "n" between the two words. "Umsturz" is associated with governments, rules, programs, but not with machines. According to "Maschinen..." it would rather be "...zerstoerung", "...sturm", "...revolution".
Um ... the latter does not really fit, that's called "Industrielle Revolution".
:) Sorry when it sounds hair-splitting, but German is properly an accurate language.

Too bad was referring to "I am usually just a lurker ...". And yes, here are not many girls around. But maybe you already overcame your lurker status and will post frequently samples of your humour. IMAGE(smile004.gif)

The problem with Maschineumdrehung is, that this word does not exist and I wanted to ask, what it means.
Maschinenumdrehung - with "n" in the middle - can be the rotation of a machine. The word doesn't exist neither, but it makes more sense.

TM, do you mean Maschinenumdrehung? Die Maschine dreht sich? Die Drehmaschine? Das Drehmoment der Maschine?
:D Or did you babelfish the word "revolution" into German?

Great, the return life spell works now, thank you Jeff.
:( But I found another bug in DwtD, that was not there in v 1.0: I couldn't fulfill anymore Helm's task to find a secret entry to the castle. He does not react when I come back to tell him. Well, it's a side quest anyway.
