What? Scania (Skåne) is not horrible, it's a beautiful place! I've spent many summers there

Hahaha, I once got the question: "This 'Sweden' you talk about, is it in Alaska?"

It's horrible because they speak horribly... I can understand a thing...

hehe Alaska, that's a good one...
I was asked once: Why doesn't Sweden celebrate 4th of July.

Maybe.

I've often been to Sweden, but always to the very south (Småland that is), so I only experienced that accent. Then again, I don't even understand a word...

Well, if you go there again, listen to how they do not say R alot and when they do it's some kind of throat sound, not a rolling R.

But I was thinking more of the more southern parts like Skåne... a horrible place...

I'm not from Norway (close by though) but, why do you think they'd be sad?

Well, I'm not from the UK but one thing I dislike is the southern/texan accent, just like I dislike the southern german accents.

Is it universal that southern accents suck? Cause the South Swedish accent sound horrible as well... 

I can't hear the Britishness... I'd say you sound like a young American.

I like the font that describes the usage of the other fonts 

It's because it's readable...

Very nice entries, I see here how good I might become. 
As I said, good entries.

Well here's my little sci-fi ruin. This is my first background, so I hope it ain't too bad. 

Mandrake was the reason to buy The Phantom   

Ohh missed this thread... Well...

HI! The name is Jon, the guys on the IRC probably already know that I'm from Sweden, that I'm 19 years old, that I have bad humour, that I make music and that I found AGS in a Game magazine.

Once again, hello to all!

That's because scandinavians enjoy their tobacco by stuffing a wad of it underneath their upper lip. Healthier, but looks like shit!
(literally)

It's almost only males that use snus while smoking is overrepresented by women and snus is only legal in Sweden and Norway, not the rest of Scandinavia.

As long as cannabis remains illegal it restricts the rate of consumption, which in turn lessens the overall damage it can cause to a society. Once you remove the restriction there's a potential risk, and you'll have a hard time putting the genie back in the bottle if things don't go as planned.

Just a thought: Make a "Systembolag of cannabis"
Systembolag = The Swedish governmental organ that are the only ones allowed to sell alcohol. It has made it very easy for the Swedish government to control the alcohol intake of Swedes.

We need a dutch person in this discussion. Im fairly sure crime rates in the netherlands are actually quite alot lower than both the US and the UK and there arent drug crazed nutcases wandering the streets killing babies

Most European countries have lower crime rate then the US and cannabis is illegal in every country except Holland, so it's not likely that the ban of cannabis in the US causes it's high crime rate.

For an example:
The US had a homicide rate of 5.6 in 2007 while France had 1.6, UK had 1.4 and Germany only had 0.9.

This is also a good example, since you wanted to compare with Holland.

I want to make it clear the I do not take sides in whether it should be legal or not, I just thought the idea of legalization how bring the crime rate down was weird.

I saw the topic and thought: Yeah I wanna be in this contest!
Then I saw the notation, and I cried.  :'(

This might make me make my first game 

I liked it, especially the background noise which makes me think of LP records, I guess it's from the mic. It really painted a picture for me. I saw a forest and a lot of mythical creatures. Great work!

A tip is to hit the notes at the same strength cause there are some notes that get much    louder.

Great thanks  , I'll probably just throw away the second one and yeah it's for the Castle Macabre project which will be a horror/gore/puzzle game.

well are the songs scary and what could be better with them?   :
