OneDollar- man AND legend!

[Ghost]

We all know OneDollar and his funny little avatar, but the man did the deed of deeds and solved a most fiendish problem for me. With one sentence, he changed the way I percieve the world (in frames per second), made a dozen game totally playable for me and reminded me of the age-old fact that sometimes, you don't see the wood for all the trees.

See here. One sentence:
"Also, did you try disabling your onboard card in the BIOS?"
I would not have thought of that.

I hereby want to establish the MAN AND LEGEND THREAD, where peeps can praise peeps for being AWESMOE, RAD, or simple TEH MAN/WOMAN.

OneDollar, here's to you!

[OneDollar]

No problem, may all your games be rendered speedily

[Dualnames]

I'd say Ghost because his kind words on a PM were the most kind words I ever read.

Thanks for that...(it's enough of a reason)

[Gilbert]

Courtland Leksutin, for monitoring people here for so long and when he took action you probably won't live to realise it.

[SpacePaw]

SpacePirateCaine for helping me even although he didnt know me. I just sent him an IM and he started teaching me drawing in pixel art. Thank you once again for your kindness

[OneDollar]

Boyd is rather awesmoe for shouldering the burden of Stickens

[Sylvr]

Boyd is rather awesmoe for shouldering the burden of Stickens

Seconded

[Haddas]

I'd like to thank obi & boyd for providing me with years of entertainment. i also want to thank progz, sylvr and the rest of the stickam people for entertaining me. A special thanks also goes out to all Lapaset attendees for making my summers, past and future.

[Nikolas]

Geez...

So manz people to thank...

Vince XII for being who he is (an awesome man!)
Kinoko for bringing me here in the first place!
Don the barbarian, for being so nice in my first thread, so I did stick around after all!
Alkis21 for being who he is (again): Now that I'm in Athens we meet reguarly and have become friends!
Andail for making me a CD cover, which is taking only too long
Dan Clarke for making me a CD cover (dezavu? no! Different CD!)
Lammy and Binky for working with me on various games and being in CGEmpire.
Wenhui for being awesome and a truthful friend, even to the other end of the world.
Radiant for giving me the first project (ATOTK) to work on and actually for being who he is!

Darnit! All the above for being who they are! ^_°

Now that I think about it, most of the above people I've met in person!

Also Ghost for sending a very respectful PM, which back then made my day, my whole week actually! And coffee lady (can't remember current nickname) for exchanging such lengthy PMs and helping out each other! 

Kudos to all of you! Hope I'm not forgetting anyone, but I'm sure I am!

Ghost  & Boyd, because the give love to the whole world.

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

We had a thank you thread no too long ago, didn't we?

I would like to thank you.

[Ghost]

We had a thank you thread no too long ago, didn't we?

(small voice) yes- I remembered that a few minutes after I posted. Sorry. Maybe we can merge them?

Still, it's nice having a totally positive thread again.

*And* amazing FarCry framerates.

[Dualnames]

I thought this was, you pick one forum member who you consider a living legend..and all. That's why I only picked Ghost. I appreciate many members around here..

Well to start back(in no particular order):

Ghost, for writting down the best pm I got.
Bicilotti, because I'd have the honour to mention him first.
Leon, for being such a cool guy.
IndieBoy, for I always enjoyed the discussions we have and for introducing me to RED DWARF
ProgZMax, for helping me once without asking nothing.
Cyrus, for being always supportive on me..
Auriond, for having to put up with my delays
SSH, for giving me a shout to blog in his blog.
RickJ, for being the man, I'd always respect around here...
Babar, for being one hell of a funny guy..
All the mods, for having to put up with me..

[Ghost]

I can't be a living legend, mate. Ghost, get it 

No, seriously, if this thread is a problem, I am really all for pruning/merging it. I have posted with the enthusiasm of a child with a new toy (okay, a SUPER new toy. Like, all Transformers rolled into one, sort of), and might've off-shot a bit.

[OneDollar]

While the thread's fate hangs in the balance, I'll say Kudos to Klaus for running MAGS for the last ages, and respect to KhrisMUC, Gilbert, RickJ, GarageGothic... and all the many other people who regularly hang around the Beginner's and Technical forums answering questions 5 minutes after they've been posted.

Btw, is the other thread you're talking about this one, because I thought that was about AGSers who are your friends, and this is about AGSers you think are rad?

[ThreeOhFour]

Everyone who taught me how to draw. Mostly ProgZmax, Krysis and Mashpotato. And Andial. And Loominous. And... wow, there have been a lot of you guys!

Everyone who taught me how to script. Mostly Paolo and Ghost.

Everyone who has added music and sound to my games. That would be you, Pfaller brothers.

The people that spend hours testing for me and giving great advice. Mostly Ghost, Bicilotti and Sebastian, but also Pittiz and possibly soon to be others .

Chris Jones. Obviously.

The nice people who talk/have talked to me in MSN/Tokbox/Stickam/IRC/PMs.

The people that say nice things about my games .

And lots of other awesome people (this whole community basically).

[abstauber]

I'd like to add Neole - for still hosting that upload space and for making 2Dadventure.com ages ago.

Also Ben and Sebastian for teaming up with me and Jens, Stalwart and Miez for their DeluxePaint / Pixel Art tutorials.

[Barbarian]

Geez...

So manz people to thank...
....
Don the barbarian, for being so nice in my first thread, so I did stick around after all!
...

(hope's I'm not beating a dead thread)
Well gosh, gee golly 
Someone remembered me after all this time I been lost in another dimension?
Life's been a crazy ride for me these past few years. I sorta disappeared from the AGS scene for a long time now it seems. Apologies all for going AWOL for so long.  Life got in the way of life for a while there.

Was thinking of perhaps coming back to be an active member here in the AGS community again if any of yas wanted an old-timer like me hanging around.  Perhaps I'll dust off an old project or two, or even start on something new, though I'd probably need to re-teach myself how to use the AGS engine again (so many new updates and buzzes and whistles added to it since I used it).
Anyways, thanks for the kind words Nick and keeping me in mind. I extend my sincere appreciation and friendship to you.

I still think fondly of the AGS community and the good memories I had here.

[monkey0506]

I still think of fondling the AGS community for all the memories I had here.

Wait...what?

Welcome back, it's been a while.

[Barbarian]

Welcome back, it's been a while.

Heheh.  Yes, there were a few members I remember that I'd like to be "fondling".
Better not mention any names, otherwise I might get the smak-down put on me.
But hey, thanx for the welcome back.
