Nice -I love text parsers.  But do make it throw back your inputs with attitude.  None of this "I don't understand ______" generic crap.  You gotta bring this monster to LIFE.  "I regurgitated your __________ after breakfast, and I don't want anything to do with it anymore."  Take that, player! 

I second this idea. 

(Also, more Lovecraft!)

Starcrash

Correct! Take it away, smiley!

This time I don't have a clue.

Flesh Gordon maybe?

Nope. But the bad guy has a space ship shaped like a giant hand.

PMQ? Which PMQ? Prime Minister Questions? Or Pub Master Quest? You have to be specific, sir.  

And we'd love to have you as part of our bake sale. You'll bring the kind of respectability and class that our group sorely needs, what with the sort of scruffy ne'er do wells we have working in our kitchen. I'm not pointing any fingers, mind you. But I' was looking directly at Snake and Dualnames when I typed that, so I think you get my drift.

Edit: And with that, I think I'm going to log out for the night. It's been a long couple of days and I thank everyone for all the support they shown us since we announced the bake sale. Seriously, you guys are the best community on the intertubes!    G'night!

I know what it is! I know! \o/

...

But I'm going to give somebody else a chance.

I figured you, of all people, would. Thanks for being a classy fellow and letting someone else have a turn.  8)

Ponch, we should share skype and msn and stuff, talking to you seems like playing the Barn Runner games !!     

Ben304 has been trying to get me on the skypes or the twitters. I'm too old to learn newfangled technology. PMs and e-mail are already pushing my fossilized brain to it's very limit.  :

Zardoz?

Nope. If it was Zardoz, I would have posted a pic of Sean Connery in that big red diaper.

But it had boobs and sex and bored people.

True. But this movie doesn't have Sean Connery. Although it does star a man who is big in Germany, or so they tell me.  8)

Zardoz?

Nope. If it was Zardoz, I would have posted a pic of Sean Connery in that big red diaper.

Ponch, new kids use all these new words. Does vulgar means BOOBIES?

There's nothing vulgar about boobies, Dual. No, sir... (cue soft, inspirational music)... Boobies are magical, wondrous things. Boobies make the world go round. There wouldn't be civilization without boobies, Dual. And one day, when you're a little older, you'll come to appreciate boobies and all they've done for Mankind. 

It just couldn't be Barbarella, could it? I don't remember this part of the movie.

Nope. More recent than Barberella. It was part of the post-Star Wars cash-in craze that followed after Lucas' big hit.

Somehow it reminds me of Buck Rogers  :

You're in the right frame of mind. But this wasn't a TV show, it was a movie. (But it was still packed with bad special effect and under-dressed women, just like Buck Rogers!)

Nope.

there could never be too many tacky, vulgar, gaudy, tasteless, hilarious and wonderful games like the Barn Runner ones. NEVER! So get cracking already!

Hey, man. I'm drawing boobies as fast as I can. But I'm just one man! I have my limits! I'm not some sort of boobie drawing machine (which I pray to God is never built or else I am right out of a job!)

Maybe it's just my own ego talking, but it seems to me the empty space on that shelf would be filled perfectly with a small, windup dancing cow.

Then welcome aboard, sir! I can't wait to rocket jump my little @ guy over the heads of those evil, monstrous Zs.

Yep! Ponch get's it! \o/

F**k yeah! Who's your daddy!

I saw that movie in theaters with this chick who really wanted to see it because she had a thing for Karl Urban. I haven't seen that movie since, but I still remembered that bit with the tongue and the cotton balls for some reason!  8)

UPDATED: Now with more movie clue!

So, is it still possible for people to climb on board with this? I'm sure I've got all kinds of ideas just leaking out of various orifices.

Sure. Just so long as you answer yes to these three questions:

1) "Do you pinky swear that you can have the game done by mid December?"

2) "Will you be willing to donate said game (temporarily) to a fund-raiser from which all proceeds are intended to be spent on an AGS server"

3) This is an official, grown up endeavor, involving money and everything. Are you at least the age of 18?

If you can handle that level of responsibility, then yes. Welcome aboard.

Ponch - I've already set up some forum space, if you'd like to use it.  Check your PMs.

Thanks, Dave. I e-mailed Tzachs about setting up something for us on his forum (he being one of the baker's dozen and all). He finally got it up and working and I'll feel bad if we don't use it after all the work he put into it -- he had to read the manual and everything!

Thanks also for all the help you're offering us. Raising the profile of this sale will bring in a lot of money and make me an incredibly rich cow buy one helluva nice server. 

Quick! Someone needs to come up with an old school pen and paper (and dice) game for the bake sale. We're going super old school this time! 

Dave: I read your offer and just PM'd the bakers dozen about your suggestion. I have to run a few errands now but I'll be back this evening. 

Tabata: You really have a smiley for every occasion, don't you?
