... these results so far are either extremely disturbing or tampered with. Kelandon with nearly as many as Brett and Drizzt, while Tarl and Scott Evans are left by the wayside?

A sense of national unity is not a bad thing. And personally, I find the Nazi comparison offensive.

Well, guessing strategy is different in the SAT and all College Board tests because incorrect answers subtract points.

You'd be surprised how much you can teach to any test. In school, do English teachers hand out past GAT essays for practice and spend time looking over rubrics used to grade them?

If we're willing to derail this into a discussion of US Presidents ...

Honest Abe was a good leader, but not necessary a good politician or president.

Washington's second term was a disaster and a half.

Andrew Jackson was our nation's best president, IMHO.

...

There are plenty of IP bans issued. Just because we don't come out and say it doesn't mean it doesn't happen - they do happen a lot. About half of all initial bans are IP bans and account bans, and if someone with an account ban creates a new account, then they're IP banned too.

Drakel and Eraserhead were two separate people. One was a troll, and one wanted game cracks.

As Grand Viceroy of Knighthood-for-life of the Society for Preservation of Richard White and Acting Supreme Potentate and Incalculable Vicar, I must protest this unwarranted accusation, and I would encourage some hapless forum wanderer to register a game of Richard White's making to trace the location of the money, perhaps through GPS and a tiny microchip, and prolong the effects of profoundly run-on sentences, thereasmuch increasing the membership of said society.

Stareye, Alcritas, Drizzt, and Brett are the only unanimous selections so far, although that's not such a big surprise. I see a lot of bias towards people currently in the community, though. Perhaps if you'd listed the scenarios designed by people, response would be a little different, at least.

Repairing the spawner is basically the major action that determines your side for the rest of the game. I don't think Jeff anticipated such a large flip-flop from players.

He also has a dominantly "liking the old item graphics" demographic.

And you'd be surprised by the number of non-native English speakers who play and register the games.

Or Shirley Monroe, his ex-wife?

There are also secret hidden strings in the Exile games. In Exile III, Anaximander strips for you, and there is anti-Catholic text in one of the previous games, as well as some lesbian references.

Where would the third game be set? If at all possible, spanning the entire world.
Do you have any idea how big the world is? Avernum 4 wouldn't be out for years.

Graphics are important to enjoying a game, but just because they're advanced doesn't mean that they'll make the game more enjoyable. Exile's graphics make me enjoy the game much more than Avernum's or Geneforge's.

Level caps do not exist in Avernum 3 and Blades of Avernum.

Jeff currently uses BMPs and PICTs for his graphics, since they're the easiest to program (or something). I wouldn't mind seeing PNGs either, since they'd be instantly more cross-platform.

Well, I found Exile on a Macworld shareware CD back in 1994 or 1995, but I didn't register a game until Exile III in 1997. And then I was hooked, and snapped up Exile I, Exile II, and BoE.
