Some special day today?

[SpacePaw]

Ok maybe I was absent for a long time but this forum seems REALLY quiet right now... Is there any special day at the moment? People went on holiday or something?
I find it disturbing and hope that everything will get back to normal I remember when I used to refresh the page and almost always see a new post

[Scummbuddy]

I'm still lazy after the latest Mittens, if that counts.

Or maybe its that I'm stuck in Tales of Monkey Island, and also playing the Monkey Island Special Edition.

Busy, busy, busy.

[SpacePaw]

stuck in tales of monkey island? you mean the first episode? I was sad that I completed it in one evening

[Akatosh]

Well, according to my ever-trusty Futurama calendar, today is the Nicaraguan Day Of Liberation and the 175th birthday of one Edgar Degas. Also, some Kelly Link turned 40 today.

Plus, maybe people are studying for exams or something... which is what I should be doing right now, actually... 

[SpacePaw]

*shivers* dont tell me about exams *looks at his unfinished university projects*

[Trihan]

Where are you stuck, ScummBuddy? There were a few puzzles that got me racking my brains, but I figured it out in the end thankfully.

[SpacePaw]

Probably the cheese wheel

[Trihan]

I got that one pretty much immediately.

The ones that I had trouble with were seizing the ship and finishing the Porcelain Power Pirate.

[SpacePaw]

really? I was stuck most of the time with that one XD rest went smoothly

[Trihan]

Well I tend to think so far outside the box I'm not even aware that there IS a box, and when I moused over the cheese it said "malleable cheese wheel" and I'd remarked from the very moment I saw the jail carvings that they would turn out to be important at some point, so it just kind of clicked as soon as I saw the missing part of the totem.

[SpacePaw]

Heheh. I tend to think outside the box too Like in Simon the Sorcerer 4 when you had to get the magic mirror but you couldnt take it out of room cuz there was a magic wall+4 and you only had blacksmith hammer+2.
So what would you do? Use the hammer on mirror of course and take just a shard into your pocket

[Trihan]

THERE WAS NO SIMON THE SORCERER 4.

Wait, was there a Simon the Sorcerer 4? They made one after the travesty that was Simon 3D?

[SpacePaw]

There was, belive me, I have it on my shelf. It wasnt too good though :/
See for yourself

EDIT:
Oh lol!! And Simon 5 is about to come out! or even came out already XD

[Babar]

Yes. There is a 4. And a 5.

I haven't had the courage to buy it yet.

[Trihan]

Why do they have to ruin everything I hold dear? Why?

[SpacePaw]

1 & 2 rock my world
You can buy 4 though. It at least LOOKS better than 3d It's kind of short though and not too funny

[Trihan]

I think I'll just pretend that there were only ever two COMPLETELY AWESOME Simon games and ignore the existence of a further three.

[Ghost]

That's your best bet. At least the humour in Simon 4 was at decent level though.

As to answer your original question, Space, it's ThrowAPie day here in Germany, so we're all very busy indeed

[SpacePaw]

Lol XD riiiiight...Totaly forgot about that one *throws a pie at ghost*
