Happy b-day, Miguel. (At least it still is in my time zone)

I started with 2.72 which done a damn fine job of fulfilling a goal I had wanted to accomplish since the ZX Spectrum, but had no scripting knowledge.
The editor taught me HOW to script, this was sorely missed in 3.0.

Had I started using 3.0. I would probably have given up right then and there, like many other so called 'Game Makers'.

I know I'm nowhere skilled enough to contribute anything to the future of the AGS engine, but I wholeheartedly second this notion. Without the old editor, I would have given up on making games pretty easily. I'm comfortable with scripting now, but that editor was a lifesaver back in the day.

Wait. So if I want to update just one room in a game and don't want the players to redownload the whole thing, I can just update the CRM, tell them to put it in their game directory, and the game will magically work?

I am amazed that works. But how will that effect saved games?

I've been using the CRM trick for Barn Runner games for years and never had any reported problems with it. If you go to my website and check out the "patches" page, you'll see several of them.

Happy b-day, Waheela

Can't wait to see who's gonna pull a DiCaprio at the Ceremony

What's that? Is it attending without pants? Because I'm totally prepared to do that.

God Hates Zags. He's okay with Zigs, though. He's still on the fence about zigzags.

Zigzags need to pick a team and stick with it!

Please elucidate. This is a 100% serious question. SERIOUSLY. Tags can go die in a ditch. But my shirt usually ends up dead in a ditch as well, with a gaping hole under the collar from where I ripped out the tag.

Use your thumbs, Babar. Don't just beat and tear at the tag like one of those apes in the opening of 2001. Use your thumbs to grasp tools (razor blades or possibly the jagged end of a broken bone) and gently cut away the tag. Evolve! Don't let the tag get the better of you! Master the tool... and master your destiny!

Next thing you know, you'll be cooking your meals and wearing pants. (Whether or not this is an improvement, I leave to you).

Also, you've made the right decision, Mr. Timoothy. 

Razor blade. Carefully cut the remaining tag bit away, flush with the fabric. Any little bit left gets swallowed up in the seam that the tag was sewn into.

Just buy shirts without a tag. I only buy shirts with the information printed on the shirt itself.

But what if I find a polo shirt that shows of my biceps in just the right way... but it has a tag?! You can't expect me to pass it up! That would be a crime against humanity! Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and trim a tag or two. Life is full of hardships, Ryan Timoothy. Ask your dog. She knows. Sometimes you're reading a thread and she's looking for my little airplane... but it isn't there. I can't be everywhere, you know. Sometimes I have to leave the forum to trim tags. Or shower. Or floss! Hardships, I'm telling you! Take care of your gums, Ryan! 

But then the part where you've cut the tag is more bothersome than the tag itself! How do you deal with that? (This is an 85% serious question.)

Razor blade. Carefully cut the remaining tag bit away, flush with the fabric. Any little bit left gets swallowed up in the seam that the tag was sewn into.

"God Hates Tags" and so do I. Whenever I buy a new shirt, the first thing I do is cut out the tag. So itchy!

Sweet! I've got the theater all to myself! I'mma carve my name in the podium!

Damn it. I missed the test. Hope everything went well.

Voted. Are we using the AGS theater again? It's much classier than irc.

HBD, Arjon!

Right here, friend. Drop by and say hi. I get lonely.

Your pal,

Sorry if I screwed up this turn guys! It was a joke! A bad joke!

This is how people lose testicles, buddy.

Happy birthday, Frodo

And ignore what Ghost said. Keep that ring for yourself. It's what the ring would want.

Looks like my tubby cow is doing jumping jacks. Good! She could stand to lose a few pounds.

Sweet! Thanks.

Happy Life Day, Darth!
