Well hello to everyone!

Ali, I must say, I played some AGS games before coming to the forum, and Nelly Cootalot is just FANTASTIC! It's exactly my kind of game. Wonderful cartoony graphics, great humor, reasonable puzzles, all in all one of the best games around (and I didn't say one of the best AMATEUR games, I said one of the best games, period.)

If you enjoyed Nelly Cootalot you should play a little known series called 'Monkey Island'. It rips off a lot of my ideas, but it's still pretty good.

Incidentally, I think Robert Redford Saves the Day was probably the first AGS game I ever heard of!

Rip offs are fine for a while, but when are we going to get Nelly Cootalot 2? You can't tease us endlessly with that avatar!

With that kind of avatar you can tease all you want. That's the sort of beard you could well hide a religious threat in, so double points for just that!

Also hello Butcher- I did register around the time you left, so I have the honour of knowing "those times" and the hope that the two events are coincidal

Damn this thread is all about nostalgia.
Ahh the ezboard days were a lot of fun. Things definitely have slowed in recent years but I dont think that is a bad thing. back in the day I couldn't get anything done because I was too interested in where the conversation would go next.
Anyway... Welcome back to the jungle. I remember the good times playing RRStD. Hope to see you around for a while...

@Layabout

Yeah! You had to back then!

And people would be "What? 12 MB? I'm not wasting my time to download that!"

@Ali

Monkey Island? Never heard of it! Are you making this up?
How on earth did you hear about Robert Redfords Saves The Day? It was wildly unpopular!

@Ghost

So you're the one that ruined it for everyone eh? I KNEW IT!

@cpage

Hey! I remember you!

Yes, looking back RRStD wasn't a very good game but at least for the people in the community it was fun. If anyone wants to see the old gang most of them play - or voice act on the INTRO of RRStD 3

M0ds of course in the starring role!

I'll maybe stick around and try to find the time to start something new...
can't make any promises though...kinda busy on the www.balderduck.com site

I <3 you.

EVENWOLF!!! YAY! I remember you very well! I seem to recall a thread about Michael Moore asking you for a tape of your movie or something

Although it's been 7 years so it might have been Gary Moore asking you for an adhesive tape...

Hey, some one I remember.

Squinky!!! Were in name's of god have YOU been?!

Squinky · « **Reply #29 on:** 16 Jan 2011, 20:01 »

Hey dude!

I shifted away towards other interests, like we all do. I'm just making my yearly pass through here, thinking I might get back into it. But these visits of mine don't typically "stick". Although I would love it too

It's cool Squinky. It's nice to see you pass though. I'm still secretly in love with you. In the manliest way possible of course

evenwolf · « **Reply #31 on:** 19 Feb 2011, 12:21 »

I'm the same as Squinky. (it took me this long to come back to see if you responded, lol.)

We had a lot of good times Butcher. I think we were both IN a game together by 2ma2. Feel free to email me any time: jessespots ART gmail DART com

Is it sad that I didn't instinctively know where the reply button was on these new fangled forums?

The community has changed, which is probably because we've all changed. Many of us from ezboards still float around occasionally to see what's up, but we're all consumed by other hobbies or simply life.

Mittens seems to be an event where some of us older members meet the newer members, and there's a closer feeling of the old community. The newer members are obnoxious and immature, which means they fit right in.
