I'd like to join!
That would be fun.
I don't know.
Isn't this discrimination?
Can the dutch antillies join?
Let's talk about it in Sweden. (iMITTENS!)

i do know some about belgian...
jokes about dutch people aren't funny ;)
Oops. I forgot about this. Sorry FruitTree.
Yes, we're going to form a group - and only people from belgium, the netherlands and luxembourg can join. And we will prosper, and they will KNOW our name is the lord. Etc... etc... Join! Unless you're not part of the exclusive group of belgians, dutch, or luxemborgini's (I don't actually know how to call you guys - but since you're probably a non-existant faction of the forum, I don't think you'll mind too much for now.)
AGA, you got shit on your chin.
harharhahaha :P that was funny JD,
anyway, how's that site going scid?
man I've got a hangover... nevermind ;D
Other peaple should join to if they pass the TEST.
Questions will be asked like.
1)What is the cost of the averige Amsterdam hooker
2)What is the cost of the averige Amsterdam joint
3)What is the cost of the averige Amsterdam bike
all free
You knock out the hooker
You steal the joint
You beat up a kid and steal their bike.
(I've been playing WAY too much "Vice City")
For now, this will have to do. There's a small banner on the page, but I don't think anybody will notice.
http://dags159753.galeon.com/
i've got a real domain ;)
Sold! :)
20
Def will put more stuff there?! Blimey! Bastards.
*puts nakes photos of Scid on the site*
::)
Yeah, i'm dutch!, i want a joint... erhm.. Join ;)
;D
Thanks, Def. I had been wondering what that huge camera that was sowed into my underpants was for. Nice work :)
the site can be on by domain by the way
heee nederlanders! ik join bij jullie natuurlijk, ik ben al 1 week zoet met dit AGS, ik maak momenteel ook een spel; Amsterdamned: Coffeeshop trouble.8) je kunt er daar veel van amsterdam zien, leuk om te zien, er zit veel portie humors in. alleen heb ik een hele lelijke character, past totaal niet. wie weet waar ik leuke characters voor AGS kan plukken?
tycho
Hmm, way to go Dutch posters. I can practice my Dutch... ;D
Is this group of the ground yet? I wanna join! :)
And yes, I am Dutch.
Cool.. Lets make a game about germans :D
hmmm...
completely forgot about this :P
scid? def? other dutch guys? WE NEED A SITE! BUILD IT! ;D
by the way, has anyone seen def?
hmm nope, haven't seen def
btw
I can build websites ;)
I can make it with php and cms and teh whole jibberish, I can probably arrange a (bit slow) server.
Its my birthday today. And i think i'll be back whenn my midlife crisis is over *i got 20. im gonna die 40 :(*
that's terrible to hear :o
best of luck to you mate :-[
Gebeurt er nog wat??
START THE GROUP NOW!! :D
*me kisses N3Tgraph*
make us a site and we'll honour you!
YAY!
we'll finally have a site!
Cool.
When.
Dutch:
hjdfghjdfgKOUDjkadfhasdfj.
jkl;jk;hkl;xfgWANEER IS HET KLAARnmsdnsdf?
lol
I'll move to holland just to join your group!
I think the first thing we need to do, is get some server space, and get somebody to make us a design. So instead of going "wanneer is het klaar" and "start de groep", we should all be "zoeken naar een manier om onze site op het internet te krijgen". That's the vital first step.
uhm, I'll make the site, when I have time that is ;)
But I'm working on it, so hold your horses, If you got some cool graphic material for the site or some great layout ideas or whatever PM me so I can implement them
My midlife crisis is over (good sex rules :)).. I'm in :D
your monkey scares me
Well, Is something happened here allready allready?. The last thing i can see in this tpic is that someone is going to put up a website.., and then there was siiiileeeeennnnnnnceee!
yeah I need some feedback from you
graphics
layout ideas
I'm just technical, but my multimedia skills aren't tiptop :)
maybe we could have some chars. from every game the members made and put them on it or something I don't know :P
guys?
help!
would you guys prefer a template table site or a frames page?
and would you prefer a site that fills the whole browserwindow?
and what colours do you prefer?
playful?
1337 black and gray colors :P
professional
just give me something
I'd go for profesional
I prefer template tables over frames. The whole frames-thing is nice for a 1-2-3-and-go website, but doesn't really work on this level, I would think.
Colour scheme... keep it simple. Black on white text, please, as that is simply the best for the eyes. A small menu on top, or perhaps on the side? One my summer vacation begins (4 weeks from now) I'm willing to lend a hand, if you need me.
Colour scheme... how about a purple-white-black-orange scheme? I know it's been done before, but it looks nice. :)
hmmm I already got some colours going
now I need a catchy name,
I already had this:
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/ds.gif)
But dutchsoft already excists :-\
Enterdutchment?
Enterdutchman?
Flying Dutchman?
Errr....
SoftyDutch?
Endutchment?
Errr... ;)
Would you really want to use any of these names? ::)
On mIRC we were brainstorming too, but nothing that made sense came out of it :\
Benelux Adventure Group
But BAG already excists (crazy british ;))
dutchsoft sounds allright with me, though it isn't only Holland remember?
anyway keep us updated!
man I'm lazy
Benelux Adventuring Rioting Front?
Makes for a nice one: BARF.
Don't think that's been done before. :)
(But, you're right... all those names I came up with are kinda... boring. :) )
Barf is cool
It IS an inventory item in Day Of The Tentacle
Frontally Adjusted Revelling Exhibiting Benelux Adventure Rioting Front?
FAKE BARF
Oh well. I really need to get to bed ;)
How about a made up word or a cool dutch word that no enlish person can understand.

Like "gedoogzone"
wij neuken voor bier! software :D
Gepijpt worden in Raalte Soft.
Houdoe Software
Where's my inspiration today?
Verdomme Entertainment? ::)
Anaal is mij nog steeds te Software
Blij om bij te dragen aan het niveau van dit topic. ;)
we were thinking about:
TBS
Team Benelux Software
I still need some stuff to put on the website...
help me guys :)
What kind of 'stuff' are you thinking about?
You could put a link to that Dutch desert island game, someone here made recently.
Here is a banner I made for the site:
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/banner.jpg)
I thought it needed a 'muis'.
(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/banner2.jpg)
ah yes, that mouse just adds that.. "something".. cool logo!
Ik dacht aan Aardappel Game Syndicate, maar de afkorting is al in gebruik door een of ander vaag softwareprogramma.
T.B.S. sounds good to me.
i love that blue clayish font. I want it
hey vet logo
kijk daar kunnen we wat mee ;)
[dutch]Okay, als notoire lurker zit ik dit nu een tijdje aan te kijken en eindelijk is er iets tastbaars. Maar hoe kun je nou van iemand verwachten dat hij een site bouwt zonder dat duidelijk is waar de site over gaat en wat de inhoud is?[/dutch]
In short, if there is going to be a TBS we have to stop making jokes and get serious about it. What do we want and what do we think it should look...
Edit: DYDO, great banner!
My two eurocents:
I think the Greek guys have the idea down pretty much. See the GAC homepage, you'll have to find the link yourself.
A Dutch homepage could accomplish the following:
1) Gather all games of Dutch and Belgian origin with reviews, walkthroughs, download links et cetera to show the world some Dutch craftsmanship. :)
2) Create a forum where Dutch and Belgians can talk (ouwehoeren) and help each other out AGS-wise in their native language. Sidenote: many here are quite comfortable with English, but think how many people aren't yet share the same passion for adventure games?
3) Create a forum to unite all Dutch-speaking fans of the good old adventure games by Sierra, Lucasarts and so on.
4)You think of some more good uses...
And Hueij, thanks for the compliment and you're right we should get serious about it, but please, nobody stop making jokes!
I'm going on vacation soon, so I'm not here to help get something off the ground, but seeing as this thread is getting pretty ancient, I'll guess by the time I'm back there's plenty to do. :)
uwh, I'm already working on the site btw,
but I don't agree with you fully, although I wouldn't mind if you set it up like that, in my mind the TBS, would be a group of people who make AGS games. The website is the place where you could download the TBS games and see some screenshots n animations. Like Gaspop or the FOY website.
We don't need no forum as far as I'm concerned, we have agsforums. I don't want to make any kind of distance to AGS in any way.
Def? ;)
Sounds Nice
*Lazy ass Men-ho, you drooling retard, make a game you!*
Hey is this dutch group thingy still joinable??
(en ja ik ben nederlands) :)
As far as I know, it's still being started...
...right? :)
*terugvindpost*
Nice to hear that there are other dutch Ags-ers on this forum. I really like the idea Dydo, but do understand the choice of N3Tgraph. I think that it is best to choose a 'gulden middenweg' :P between those two. I am currently workin on my first dutch game. So maybe, if people think it's worth it, we can help eachother translate games etc. So count me in.
I think there sould be a forum!
I don't think we will work as a team if we don't have a place where we can talk in our native tong.
(just to filter out the dutch-wannabe's)
And we can still use the AGS forums as the main place to talk.

Yeah, I totally agree. We can't use, CJ's forums to discuss our own games (that are i production). What should be the point of that. Just like jetxl said: I think that the forum should be used to work together, and we can talk in our native language. What should be the point of a dutch group anyway if we dont have a forum were we can speak in our own language. I DO think that the site definetly should be in English.
Sounds like a good compromise. But is there actually anything being done with this? N3tgraph?
Yeah, we are a bit waking up now ;). Just, somebody build a site already
TBS is the name
Some dutch people will join
We post our games
We have a forum
And once a year, we all get together, and go to the hookers, smoke pot
and beat up old people wearing cloggs with a big cheesestick
Nog iets, hoe we in vredesnaam in Nederland aan complete oude spellen komen. Illegaal downloaden is voor mij geen optie. Niet uit principes ;), maar omdat ik de stemmen erbij wil.
Antwoorden binnen deze thread OF op de site die iemand voor ons aan het klussen is. Wie is dat toch...... :)
[Translation]
Another thing, how the hell are we supposed to get our hands on full, old games in TEH NETEHRLANDS. Illegal downloading is not an option for me. Not out of principles ;), but because I want the talkie versions.
Reply within this thread OR on the site that somebody is building for us. Who is that...... :)
[/Translation]
well Umm I'm making teh site
kind-off
okay, so I make sites all day long at work and when getting home I çan't be arsed...
But I will make it :)
I'm kinda good at the technical stuff (i think)

Def what?! What did I do? :) Ik zie dat we d'r nogsteeds mee bezig zijn. Ik vind dat we wel een forum moeten hebben, waar we gewoon in het Nederlands posten. Dus n3t schiet op met die site, wat je er ook opgooit :) Enne, Dydo, wat voor games had je in gedachten? Er is geloof ik een gamepack met DOTT, FT, en nog eentje. MI2 ofzo. En anders zou je ze via internet bij een shop in het buitenland kunnen bestellen denk ik. Misschien amazon?
