Long Lost AGS Folk

[Czar]

2ma2 was always a kind of a role model to me. Or is it a row model?
I'm pretty sure he didn't have any oars.

Usually this emotions come with the game you first play (or amongst the first). That PD and Kenny Rogers changed my life and view at this community FOREVA!!!11!


C,

[Andail]

I think a pretty big part of this community has PD as their first AGS experience and source of inspiration. At least the semi-old generation.
People already knew that you could make wacky, humourous games, 2ma2 proved that you could do beautiful and professional-looking games as well.
He did a tremendous job in that way.

Later Chrille came around to show how a scary, thriller game could be done.

That's what makes some people big; they break new ground.

[Chicky]

Yup, PD was my first, and my favorite. Simple graphics, great story, perfect puzzles and all seeming very professional.

2ma2 was on #ags sometime during the fall, can't remember when exactly.  He promised to come back in a few months.

As for Michael Doak.. correct me if I'm wrong, but he's the creator of Fatman, right?  Well, he's been somewhat recently involved in the Space Quest community, starting up a fanproject.  As for the current moment, I don't think anybody's heard from him in a month or two.

I don't see why no one can find Mike. He posted in this thread earlier today: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=19243.0

I always talk to to Trap(ezoid) and Rode(Shawno) on the messenger, so they're still around...

Now, where the hell is Chrille? I remember last year you could see that he was in the users online list, but he would never post!

[auhsor]

I miss Rode too. I enjoyed his posts and his site and his games.

I'd also love Phil Reed to come back and continue to make games. But that is only a dream, he's too busy doing other things i think.

I keep most of the old timers locked safely in my basement while I figure out how to clone their brains...



... ok, so the brain thing was a lie.




Seriously, alot of the old timers are on my MSN list.   I know several of them have full time crareer track jobs, or are in school to get career type jobs  and a few of them sit around playing counter-strike for days on end.

except for rodekill, him I actually keep in my basement on a steady diet of homeless people and cheap gin untill he finishes Rodekill 2, and makes the rust spin-off game I really want.

The homeless people are a little leathery, but the gin is what keeps me going.

Hey everyone!
Man, this topic's kinda depressing. I've been gone for a few months, but no one's noticed. lol
Let's all hope that these 'goners' will return someday.

[Pet Terry]

Yeah, 2ma2 was on #ags few months back. He said he will be coming back in... few months.

Chrille is really busy with school and will be for several months. I've been talking to him on MSN every now and then so he is still alive. He updated his website some time ago btw.

Last I heard about Pessi was that he got a job but that's all I know.

Does anyone still remember Ed20? Too bad Quirk Pantaloon was never finished. Then there was Mikko who was helping me with Goldlagoon, but he too disappeared. And Vargtass hasn't been around in a while. And...

[Meowster]

I miss Remixor, Deadworm, Kingzjester, Erwin_BR and Yufster. Oh wait, no I don't.

I do miss Trapezoid though.

[AGA]

Erwin_Br still posts here on occasion. Kingzjester and deadworm never really posted here. Remo is a traitorous bastard though.

[Meowster]

And now for my next impression... Jessie Owens!

[Kweepa]

Where de white women at?

[MonkeySpank]

MonkeySpank! Hello dar! How are you?

i'm great actually, thanks for asking

what about you?

[Meowster]

Where de white women at?

Hey man, you're alright!  8)

[Ionias]

I'm here every now and again. I wish I could be more active but I've not the time of late.

*edit*: and if anyone wants to reach me I'm at Ionias_mdoak@hotmail.com these days.

[TerranRich]

if anybody's wondering, I'm still here! Yes, the most respected elder in all of AGS history is still here, wandering the streets of Southeastern massachusetts, scrounging up enough change for a double latte.

(That, of course, was a joke... I'm really NOT "all here" )

[m0ds]

Aye, Vargtass disappeared strangely into the night after the Swedish Mittens, which is a great shame because he's a great guy...

Ed20 made a RON game, didn't he..?

On the subject of wondering where Yufster is, for the record; where is Yahtzee??/!!1
