Title: HUGE Economic Deal: Dualnames AGS Blog being bought off by SSH Corp.
Post by: Dualnames on Wed 26/11/2008 14:55:46
Through my own eyes, see the world of AGS and not only that..
Well, hope someone likes it, but either ways I'm stilll gonna post in weekly basis.

Some of you might say, that I'm ripping SSH's brilliant idea. But in case you think, I do well, it's a good idea, and I can't help it.

I do have to say, that my blog has been bought off. By SSH. So instead of having too many blogs to follow, now you get to follow only one..yay for that. Anyway, so now just keep track on SSH's blog. I'll be posting from time to time.

Kind of makes you hate all those big corporations taking over the small family businesses that have been there for venturies. But that's the capitalistic way of the world nowadays. Good blog-writers are being replaced by chinese children and later on robots, and all the profit goes to these Scotch big time owners who sepnd it on themselves rather than the commonwealth. Makes me sick, 's what it does!

Mods has a blog! Quick SSH, absorb him into your megalomaniacal mega-evil corporation! Your blog man, your blog!

ManicMatt's Blog entry 1:

SSH made a blog, then Dualnames made a blog too. And then it turned out Mod had a blog too. And so I made a blog. It is the best most interesting blog ever written, more better and more super exciting than anything any human has ever written in the fabric of time and space.

After careful consideration, the only option that remains is for me to re-capitalise SSH's blog by taking a 70% stake in it. This will give me full voting rights in the future management of the blog, and is on the condition that SSH helps normal members out by loaning them blog space.

I refused SSH's scandalous offer as CJ's new condition that everyone is automatically granted blogging space seemed like a better one...

So, you can fill my 0.02% with this:

BUM MAN!!!!

Enjoy it while you can, because I will of course use my voting rights to prevent any further obscene bonuses being paid to senior staff at the SSH Blog.

Also, I think I need to re-iterate that the last 10 years of stability in the AGS market were due to my sound judgment and prudence, whereas this new situation of blog bankrupties is a global problem affecting not just us, but other adventure game engines worldwide.

Unfortunately, my attempt to raise funds with a share issue failed, so CJ now owns 55% of the Royal Blog of Scotland.  :'(
