Loading a game from a pre 2.71 version should alos reming the user that they may need to move their multimedia files in order for them to work...

You're just a-pimpin' yourself for a joint win of this year's "Sexiest AGSer" FOREGO...

Since Bender is arrogant, extorvert and brutal, surely he wouldn't qualify as a robot! Piffle!

Anyway, as I'm sure most of you realised, I'm a marginal sociopath, but I'm nearly a haughty intellectual.

[yoda]Always two there are, a master and an apprentice. But this was which?[/yoda]

Was a date decided on for the Benidorm adventure this year?

Just to re-iterate: All nominations will be selected by popular vote. Then there will be another vote on the top 5 (or 3 depending on category). This thread is simply advertising your game and reminding people of its best aspects, NOT for nominating it. A game not mentioned in this thread can still win, although it is maybe slightly less likely...

I'm a Manly Son of a Charioteer 

Also, from a pragmatic point of view, it means that everyone spends more time talking about this in your thread than they do the contents of the ezine...

1. this
2. depends what you want to use them for
3. he'd use the stargate


1. How much is that doggy in the window?
2. Why do fools fall in love?
3. Will you still love me tomorrow?

This thread is for those who think that their game might be worthy of an AGS Award to post a small image or bit of text about their game and a link. Please limit images to a double-height sig banner (i.e. 600x100) or a small screenshot-size (320x200). Larger images may be removed! Any posts off-topic will also be pruned...

This is NOT a nominations thread... this is simply to let people know which games are out there. Vince's post is a good example of how you should do it. If you think it is a bit tacky to mention specific categories just don't bother with that bit (which is, of course, code for "My game should be nomintaed in ALL the categories"  )

OK, so I hereby take posession of the Awards as no-one else has claimed them and I shall also try to do the FOREGOs at the same time, so that we can get everything in one place. I shall try and put together a list of all the categories, etc. However, meantime, I'd like to narrow down the eligible games. I shall not consider any games that are not in the games page already and this list: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=digest&sortby=3&sortdir=1&startfrom=0 shall be definitive, with Christmas Quest being the last eligible game of 2005.

Meanwhile, I will start a "For your consideration" thread which can hopefully be stickied and people can post moderately-sized adverts for their games there.

(in my friend's cybercafe in Santander)

Just to let you know my plans: i hope to get set up a web page where you choose from a list of all 2005's games somehow and use that for nomination, allowing them to be automated somewhat. Nominations and awards will be entirely by pulbic vote if I run the awards. Looks like no-one else is volunteering to do it yet. I haven't read the whole thread in detial yet and will do so when I come back, so keep those suggestions coming for now. And register your 2005 games on the AGS games page if you haven't done already.

Which of those categories does your own post come under, BB? 

Links seem borken to me, but here's a mirror: http://www.americangirlscouts.org/agsuploads/files/Nelly_Cootalot.zip

btw, good of you to follow in the Princess Marian tradition of games as presents to the "other half". However, you'll need some work to bring your gfx to the Princess Marian standard

I've found an issue if you have a 320x200 game that you set up to run at 640x400, the printing goes awry, so I'll try and fix this at some point..

Edit:

I fixed the bug and uploaded v1.02

By the way, if I am going to run it, I'll start the nominations process as soon as I am back from my holidays, so consider this time an opportunity to make any detailed suggestions about categories, and also to get any games registered in the games database on the main AGS site. One rule I'll have for sure is that if it is not registewred there, its not eligible for an award. Don't like it? Well, just register the game, f00! Quick, while you have the chance.

Not to mention the wiki

Well, if no-one else volunteers.... I'l be away until 11th Jan, so if someone wants to do something more elaborate by then, fine. Otherwise, I'll do it.

Speaking as a member of some whacky minority religion, I find the term "New Year" offensive and demand that it is renamed to "Arbitrary annaual cut-off point".

Spoiler

It's political correctness gone maaAAaaaAAaaAAaad!!!1!
