It can't be as bad has CoC was with the copy protection puzzles? In my opinion both are tied for the worst-designed Sierra game ever. I mean, there's no accounting for matters of taste, like if you like the Coles' humor better than Al Lowe's, or whether Sonny is cooler than Gabriel - but this is ju...

Codename Iceman was nice, but too much simulator stuff which will require a submarine expert to be involved. I'm going to have to play that game some day... Trust me, it's not worth it. The game should be retitled "Murphy's Law" - anything and everything goes wrong and you have to double-...

Hm, interesting, I never had any problem with that. Maybe it works better without the quotes or something?

Frankly I'm surprised about how many people haven't played Gold Rush. Maybe it didn't sell well? It did have the best graphics of any AGI game (not sure if that was good for that time though, it was probably the first days of EGA), and I found it very interesting plot- and puzzle-wise. Maybe it's be...

It may never prevent this but it can certainly make it a lot harder. I'm sure not everybody here could have duplicated what you did (because otherwise, they would have)

Yay! Congrats!

See this thread for details on this hoax.

Yes. Firefox is entirely W3C-compliant. It is possible (though slightly tricky) to make pages that work equally well in IE and in Firefox (and other W3C-compliant browsers such as Opera, Lynx, Mozilla and Mosaic).

Okay, some of you probably found out that the ATOTK website is once again functional? As a matter of fact this was part of the larger joke surrounding HOIK... think about it - IA has internal troubles and kicks out Cain, Hero/6 has internal troubles with a spammer on their forums, and ATOTK has inte...

I'd agree with Klitos... everyone seems to have a major shortage of animators. So if you want to join an adventure project, grab your hands full of pixels and learn it :) There isn't really a surplus on anything if you ask me (except in 'people who think they have teh kewlest id34 ev4r...' :) ) but ...

The trouble isn't really with Firefox being incompatible - in fact it follows the IEEE web standards to the letter. The problem is that IE, either intentionally or by oversight, breaks several standards, and some web designers have grown to rely on IE's faulty behavior.

I think he meant the extra-enhanced version that was to be the prize.

Fluxmaster is a 73-year-old Inuit who currently lives in Southern Borneo and enjoys cereal in his tea. From: http://ip-spy.fbi.gov. How's that for personal?

And I do seem to recall a paladin savefile on the QFG disks anyway.

Who, me? Do you really believe this is some kind of Dutch conspiracy?

Yes, Flux, that is entirely the point. There was the Mickey Mouse act of two years ago, which extended a number of profitable copyrights for another twenty years, and there's no reason why they can't do the exact same thing again by the time it comes around. In fact, they probably will, and there's ...

Yes, the blackbird you see in QfG1 is the real one.

I'm not sure what you people are doing wrong, but I had no problem clicking my way to 15000 dinars. Okay, so I have WAY too much time on my hands. [spoiler] But it seems to take into account the time between two clicks, so frenzied clicking is not really the way to go here. (sorry if this remark is ...

Well, of course, that's not going to happen now with the Grand Merging to Silver Sphinx.

Well, yes, that's exactly what we're saying. It's very cool to write a plot and design a game and everything, but it's a tremendous amount of work to get all the graphics, music and animation done. And there's problems with keeping team members active and motivated, real life interfering, et cetera....

I'm glad to see we're finally live. It's not easy being indie.

Heh. Those fences wouldn't even harm a little kid if he was climbing them and got shocked and fell twenty feet down to the hard rocky ground.

Have you tried contacting the authors of PHPBB? They might have a solution.

Yes, I tried Linux and got yet another message. Weird.

Cain -> with an attitude like that, why are you even surprised we wanted to get rid of you?

Everyone else -> can we just drop this matter, it doesn't deserve this kind of attention.
