Anybody got these? The old place they were stored online seems to be down now... :(
I wanna see what I looked like in 2005 when I was a right little fatty :)
I do not recall ever seeing a picture of you being fat.
I was a chubbychubby chubster! I had chubby cheeks and such. Also I can't believe I met Ron Gilbert wow! But I have no photos to remind me of that excellent day :(
This thread (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=20460.msg252932#msg252932) from Mods seems to be all that's left here.
Looks like all the adventuregamestudio.co.uk-based stuff has either been moved or was left behind during the server-switching shenanigans. CJ might know.
Ah well chubby chubster or not I still fancied you quite a bit that day! :P
Good laugh it was...good to see those photos again! Yufster, YOU had most of the decent photos.
LimpingFish has a giant spliff in his mouth in one of mine, or so it looks! Hehe
Unfortunately that's not me. :'(
I never made it to GilbertFest. Although, that dude does look like me from the neck up.
Anyway, all my giant spliffs are 100% genuine.
Yay thanks Limpingfish :)
Mark, a distant memory has just stirred in me...? Did you send me a letter after Gilbertfest? Because I was in Brighton that summer but my Mum said I'd gotten a letter from England and she'd post it to me, but she n00bed up and got my postcode wrong so I never got the letter. Or she lost it and was too embarrassed to admit it.
Also I don't think I even had a camera.
Since you insisted on not having your photo taken, I'm not too sure how many photos of you there are.

Mark, ... Did you send me a letter...?
Aw, guys! This is such a cute flirt! Reminds me of something... Reminds me of... THIS (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=9059.0)! ;)
Mark did you send me Lucasarts games???
Is that where I got those?????
Why is there a huge chunk of my memory missing?
Mark, did I get you anything in return?
You should come to Brighton some time (when I have a job again), I'll buy you a drink.
You fucking douche :)
I sent you a letter and you replied, you told me all about your day in school and how writing to me was much more fun. And you told me all about your Tim Shafer thesis :)
Then a month or so later, I sent you Grim Fandango - remmber? That game you HADN'T PLAYED yet you were writing all about it's creator? And I believe in return you sent me Kings Quest Quadrilogy (which I haven't yet played, Sierra games make me vomit)! But no letters that time, but because I sent you GF, you did indeed, as matzy points out...start the I LOVE MARK LOVEGROVE thread :)
Then at Gilberfest you promised a whole BUNDLE of things but you fucked off about 20 minutes after we'd all met you! So thanks, but I'll pass on that drink, because I can't be arsed to talk to you for 10 minutes and then myself for the remaining 7 hours. :P YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO GO TO ANDAILS!!!!!!
Oh, and later that night, Andail's random swedish friend lady started getting a little over friendly with me, lol....so you missed out!!! :P Actually, I guess you didn't. You had spaff, and he was the one that guided me into Brighton safely. So no hard feelings ;)
Well, hope that fills some gaps for you :) Peace
Ahhhh, memories.
I've re-uploaded my pics here:

Whatever happened to spleen...

I couldn't have been supposed to go to Andail's, because my flight was booked for 6am or something ridiculous like that the next morning. I
had to go to the airport.
I hung out with you guys for ages, I only left 'cos I literally HAD to get to the airport. And actually Mr Mark, I remember insisting that we waited for you when your ticket didn't work in the underground thing! Someone else (¬¬) wanted to rush on ahead to catch the last train but I stayed
at the risk of missing my train and therefore my flight. So ner ner! I wasn't all bad! Also we went for a drink in a pub some place and got food. I'm not making this up in my head, this stuff all actually happened. I'm sure it did.
Also Spaff wasn't there, I didn't have Spaff, I had that guy with the towel on his head and Scotch :)
EDIT: Wait, you're talking about Brightens, not Gilbertfest. I think the reason I fucked off after 20 minutes was because Spaff started whining, so I apologise for that. I've grown some balls since then and stopped paying attention to him when he whines about stupid shit. PS I love you Spaff ¬¬
Random fact: when my Mum saw a photo of Scotch after Gilbertfest, she said "oh he's a nice looking boy".

Oy, I was there too.
My memory... is shit... I'm so sorry :( I remember now!
Also thanks, great photos. I am pleased to be able to compare myself now and then. I look so (http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1259/229/76/711230308/n711230308_2179299_7690.jpg) bloody (http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v377/243/46/669547342/n669547342_1503277_5624.jpg) different (http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v377/243/46/669547342/n669547342_1503215_9459.jpg), and it's good to know. Hurray for weight loss!
How come I no longer have nice flushed cheeks and lips like that though? I'm just bone pale and rubbish now. I was so fat and young :( I want my colouring back.
Wow, it's like a trainwreak. This is brilliant.
I'm with Mark on this one, even though I wasn't there. All these things he did for you yuf or meow or whatever you call yerself, and you friggin forgot about it! You forgot the brilliance that is the 'I love Mark Lovegrove' thread. You'll never get into the Love Grove now. Whatever that means.
I didn't forget I just... had a slight memory fail :(
Mark I'm sorry :'(
It has been four/five years though :) that's almost a quarter of the total time I've been alive ¬¬
Haha! That's cool :) We're on par now, you're right Gilberfest and Brightens were two completely seperate occasions and I got em mixed up. And sending you GF may not have happened a month after...Ah yes well now I have a better way to remember. Gilberfest was pre-Spaff and Brightens was post-spaff :) And Andail wasn't at Gilberfest. And Gilbertfest was in London, not Brighton, for a start. LOL! ::)
Thanks Ryan. Hope you had fun recently across the pond, in China :p
I hope I didn't tear up old wounds... To compensate I choose to selectively quote Mods' post to distill what he was actually trying to say!

You...told me...you were...all about...me...But...I LOVE...ANDAIL...!!!!!!...so you missed out!!!...
All right, I'm going to stop now...
Wait... I'm in China!? No wonder I don't understand what anyone is saying...
Hahaha.
Marzy, nice selective quoting. I like that.
Well, we all love Andail, so m0ds can join the queue.
I don't, he abandoned us :'(
Hmm Brightens, that's when Spleen and I had to eat a spoon of English Mustard.
And every time I tried to take a photo at Andails I turned the Digital Camera off...
Happy Days.
