Title: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Hammerite on Sun 21/01/2007 14:35:27
has anyone played the text adventures on fullyramblomatic.com, if so, are they any good?
also does anyone have an idea of what the blank in "6 Days A _______________" is?

it'd be a bit unimaginative considering that has already been used.
look at www.fullyramblomatic.com if you think i'm crazy.

The blurred text could read "6 Days a Sacrifice". Before Yahtzee posted the title screen shots I thought it might be "6 Days a Scion".

i'm quite surprised how low-profile this is.
i only just found them by chance, because i remembered yahtzee mentioning a concluding chapter so i thought: "i wonder how that's going".
must play those text adventures some time.

Stealing my material (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=15466.msg191446#msg191446), eh?  ;D

As for the first letter looking like a C, I do agree, but why break the "X Days a S..." formula? If it is indeed an S, the lower part is below the rest of the line, and thinner than the top part of the S.

The most plausible suggestion from the fullyramblomatic forums, given the screenshot, seems to be "6 Days & 6 Agonies". I can't quite see how you fit the G in there (to me it looks more like "6Aonies"), but I can't make it read anything else meaningful either.

It may be a phonetic pattern, with the word one where 'c' is pronounced like 's'.

6 Days a Sacrifice!
Must be!

Post by: Gord10 on Sun 21/01/2007 17:55:22
The last three letters look like "....ilt". I would say the first letters were "Cav" if the third letter didn't look like so much "O". (But I guess this is something about caves).
Heck, why don't we just wait and see?
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Kweepa on Sun 21/01/2007 18:05:21
I think it's "6 Days a Lioness" - to tie in with his "I Eat Lions" theme.
Or perhaps "6 Days of Lackeys".

Wow, Yahtzee knows all about buzz. What a clever fellow.
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Mr Flibble on Sun 21/01/2007 19:43:40
6 Days an Acolyte? No.

First letter looks like a D or an L, the last is an S, a T, or an I...

Blergh, who can tell.

Beats me! I was trying to mess with the image to see if I can tell. Not as though I'm a big fan of his games, I just like trying to uncover secrets!

What's with this topic?

I thought everyone hated Ben... ;)

Oh, and just for the record, Yahtz himself called it 6DAS, so the first letter should be S.

So far, "Sacrifice" has the most votes down at the FR.com forums.

Will it have Trillby? Or will it take place in the future like 7 days?
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Akatosh on Tue 23/01/2007 12:09:02
Hm... the last one definitly is an s. Too bad Yahtzee thought of

-> locking fullyramblomatic.com/6days/ for public access
-> not uploading /title.gif yet  :-\

I'll let The Gimp on this when I come home today.

It seems like the game takes place in 'past'. Probably some events about the idol or/and the Tall Man.

I wonder when he is going to make "8 days a week" with Paul McCartney in the main role.

Post by: Dan_N on Tue 23/01/2007 15:29:01
6DAS is set in the future. It will feature Malcom Somerset (a.k.a. John Somerset from 7DAS) but he won't be the main character.

Sheesh, you people really are in the dark :-\.
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Hammerite on Tue 23/01/2007 16:17:04
where'd you hear that  ???
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Dan_N on Tue 23/01/2007 16:20:30
On the FR.com forums, of course. And you could've picked up some info by playing Yahtz's recent IF games too.

I'd quote Yahtzee's post where he stated that info about 6DAS, but I really can't be arsed now and I don't remember where it was made.

By the way, 6DAS will come out on Thursday, in case you didn't know that yet...

Damn, I can't seem to get in that *** folder. And I can't find a search engine valuable for XSS exploit. And I don't know his IP and can't fake it. And Google's locked out, too.

Geez.  >:(

/EDIT: Gaaaah! Die, security, die! AAaaaah! Damn, I have to continue working on _Access in order to learn how to do this. *sigh*

Okay, let's see what GIMP will make of the screenshot.

Akatosh, don't mind me asking, but what on Earth are you doing?
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Akatosh on Tue 23/01/2007 16:32:35
Trying to access a certain fullyramblomatic folder. But I can't seem to manage it.
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Dan_N on Tue 23/01/2007 16:35:19
I think you've been working too much on _Access ;).

And besides, can't you wait two more days?

And why don't you come to IRC anymore :'(?
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Hammerite on Tue 23/01/2007 16:35:46
hacker
Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Akatosh on Tue 23/01/2007 16:48:00
Thanks, but I don't think I deserve the honor to be called a hacker. GIMP doesn't know what to do with the text either. For fullyramblomatic... well, I'm pretty sure I could find something useful if I just hardcore brute force type everything I could think of in the address bar. But, then again, not if there are only a few days left. I could try hunting down the hosting service and try to crack Yahtzee's account, but, then again... nah.

See you on IRC (...when I come to it again...)

     Is 6DAS going to be a graphical adventure or text based? I haven't heard anything about it at all. (I'm soooo clueless)

No, I'm finishing it tonight, and Yahtzee is pissed off.

Because he said he wouldn't?

And besides, he's got his own forums 8).

Hmm...

Your punctuation is right, and your grammar seems ok too...

* Raises an eyebrow

Wait! I see an error! The personal text under your avatar is flawed! It has no punctuation.

Or maybe it's deliberately written like that to throw us off...

I'll keep you under surveillance for a litle while longer :D.

You have surprising insider information on the game, you are polemic and you used the expression "I couldn't be arsed to".

Case closed!

Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: Akatosh on Wed 24/01/2007 17:46:48
I'd still guess the last letter was an 's', but yes, with that font, it could also be an 'r' or even a 'c'. 'Sinner', 'Sacrificer' and that stuff seem to be the best guesses, though 'paranoic', 'maniac' or such would match the "distrust chain" (stranger -> skeptic -> paranoic) in the titles. Or it would be something with a "distrust level" between stranger and skeptic. For example, 'someone careful'. No, wait, that's too long.

Actually, Yahtzee told me the title is;

6 Days a Progzmax Is An Idiot

However, I reminded him you're one EVERY day, not just for six.

Oooh, and it should be out tomorrow, too!!!!!

Title: Re: 6 Days A ??????????
Post by: TheCheese33 on Mon 29/01/2007 02:43:19
Well, Yahtzee doesn't need to promote his games, anyway. If he just posted on his site, "new game out now", he would reach 10,000 downloads in no time!
