Ah, but Alo once described himself as having a "large gut" and horrible skin. The bully wouldn't be able to get close enough to pin him against a wall.

And if he did, Alo's skin would put him off.

And how many 50 year old's hang around playgrounds? 'Cus that's damn creepy.

Well, Trillian is being an absolute... pain. And AOL IM refuses to download at the minute. So my participation is dependant on my finding a chat client that works.

I can confirm that... I found an encyclopaedia from 2014. Must have fallen through a time warp or something. In it, it discusses how Alorael was the first against the wall when the revolution came. Imban was second, and as a result, the boards broke down...

Ack! This page makes my internet connection die. Literally.

So, on with This Post (v3):

I'm linking because, well, I am.

And what's the deal with all these XP users? I still use '98. And AOL v7... I don't see th point in updating it if it works.

And this wallpaper isn't my usual one. It changes every day, and today's is this.

So: Link

No. The idea was that Slartucker was describing the average Spidwebber, i.e, using the most popular answers in the census to create a board average.

I like TM's analysis more than the games I think... :P

Actually, I voted A3. It has the surface and night-time. Those things appeal to me greatly.

Close second was A2.

Well, I'll have to actually play it first...

And, after I'd done my scenario, I was thinking of porting Emulations. With Stareye's permission, of course.

How easy/hard/worthwile would this be?

Ah... I really must pay attention to the RWG Forums.

My implants seem to be fine, even though I wasn't sure I had them...

Oh well.

Edit: Well, it apparently ISN'T about RW... I'm gonna go hide for a while 'til this thread stops scaring me.

I was only saying that I'd want to play it on BoA, due to my hating BoE's engine... Not that I was looking for portable BoE material...

Edit: Wait... wouldn't this be a good way to get more people interested in BoA? By converting BoE scenarios, we're creating a new pool of scenarios to play. And it shouldn't take as long as making one from scratch, right?

TM: you used the conversion tool. What's it like?

My bad. Sorry Luz!

She really is a great artist though...

Right, so an update of the update. I have a registered copy of BoA. I have a text editor, and my scenario. I need to get the 3D Editor ('cus the 2D one sucks major), and then I'm gonna have an all-night slog. Which in real terms means I'll write 'til I fall asleep.

I just played through it, and there aren't any major bugs, and it is winnable (although you do need to set a flag manually). So that Monday deadline looks easily meet-able.

Oh, and Thralni, I'm still gunning to beat your beta-call! And my "job" is serving chips to snooty customers... so I come home absolutely knackered and stinking of fat. Wonderful, huh?

Last thing you ate: A chocolate digestive biscuit. The crumbs got absolutely everywhere. Including floating around the bottom of my coffee mug.

What you're wearing right now: Okay, from the top down...

- Blue, white and red striped woolly hat.
- Blue shirt, open (both down the fron and at the sleeves)
- Black Radiohead t-shirt
- Black fingerless gloves
- Black boxers
- Blue jeans
- Blue woolly socks

Describe the room you are in: Oh, it's my bedroom. There are three computers, three beds, one tv, a dvd player, rows of books/CDs/DVDs, lots of clothes, and most importantly, coffee. Oh! And my Morrissey montage, which covers a wall, and my huge Che Guevara Flag!

It's way too late I'm afraid/pleased to announce. And whilst I probably will be awake at 3am, I'm going to be nowhere near a computing terminal.

I know, I know... posting an update is a BAD thing - especially when I could be polishing up my scenario, but I did say it'd be ready for today, and I need to explain why it isn't.

Firstly, my computer died. Meaning I've just reinstalled my OS. Luckily, I had just backed-up, so I lost none of my work, but I did lose my scenario editor, and the game. So I'm downloading/petitioning Jeff for a new key as we speak...

Secondly, I only recieved the graphics from Luz last night, and need to slot them in. He did most of the work though! Thanks Luz, again.

Thirdly, "real life" is being a jackass. I'm at work tomorrow and Saturday, *and* I have an essay to do for Monday. Whilst all I need to do is write dialogue for half a town, and add a few special nodes, I'm looking at Sunday evening as my only slot for doing that. Which bites.

So, in all seriousness, I'm hoping to have an alpha done for Monday, weather permitting. Then it'll take a day or two to iron it all out.

And that's about it...

My signature started life as just the "Thus endeth this post" bit, which was an ode to the end of the Great Spider song in one of the Averna. I forget which one it was.

Then I appended a lyric or quote. At the minute it's from a Morrissey song...

And of course, then there's the friendly invitation to add me to your MSN buddy list.

And thus endeth the explanation.
