Sorry about the delay.
Here's the next one:

Looks like a box for an MP3 player.

Aziza will only fight if you are a wizard - i.e. passed W.I.T and started the game as a magic user. Magic ability alone doesn't count, so you're stuck with Keapon.

That explains why my fighter couldn't  challenge her.

No, she will call off the match - BTW I may have given you a bum steer about reversal vs. Ghouls. From memory I think it does affect them, I guess I'll have to replay it to be sure.

Thanks for that info, now I will make sure only to cast zap at night and make sue to get in a real fight so it won't still be on my blade when I challenge Uhura.

How do I go about challenging Aziza to a magic game? When asking her about it she just says that Keapon likes them and I should talk to him about it. I already graduated from WIT and beat Keapon at his game once, Is there something else that I am missing?

Will having zap cast on my blade anger Uhura when I train with her or cost me honor?

Some new questions,  is there any way to learn the English translations of the Arabic street names if you've already been to the money changer, but haven't asked Shameen or Shema about her first?
Also does the  reversal spell work against ghouls and can the Djinn wish be used to raise an ability or skill  over 200?

Happy birthday mkennedy!
Happy birthday Lt. Smash!

Thanks!

no, its related to a popular drink that usually comes in bottles

A thing to get the worm out of the tequila?

Regarding paladinhood, the first robbery is due to be the silversmith. If you enter that house, kiss goodbye to paladinhood. Regarding Uhura, you can beat her up as many times as you want. I guess you're playing a hybrid character (which I did) so use your lockpicking skills on any door (even if barred) near the Katta's Tail inn because it increases agility and a few other things, then have 30 minutes room rest to increase stamina.

What I've been doing for the lockpicking is the classic trick

Spoiler

use pick on self to pick nose.

It can also help with my vitality to!

EDIT:
A new question, is there anywhere that you can rest that will fully restore magic and health?

Spoiler

In QFG1 you were able to do that at Erana's Peace.

Is there any tricks to crossing the tightrope? Agility is maxed out at 200.

Indians by Anthrax.

This is the VGA remake with combination option chosen. That trick with the saurus discount is pretty nifty, unfortunately I paid the full 50 dinar. 

EDIT:
A new question, if you perform any of Dinarzad's robbery quests does it automatically disqualify you from becoming a paladin at the end?

Also if you beat Uhura in combat too many times will she be too exhausted to train you any further that day? Usually when she runs to low on stamina I yield to her so she doesn't get too worn out and only defeat her once in the morning and again at evening.

If I haggle with a merchant and then come back later with a higher communication skill will I be able to renegotiate the lowest price or is forever fixed once they make their final offer?

time to get this thread moving again

A dilator for making things wider.

Beer must be an acquired taste, when I tried a pomegranate flavored beer I didn't care for it, though it probably didn't help that the beer was room temperature instead of cold.

Yeah, that definitely wouldn't help. I can't think of any beer that tastes nice at room temperature.

Was that the only time you tried beer?

It was indeed the only time I ever had beer.

Easy one (I think):

A kiln for baking pottery?

Beer must be an acquired taste, when I tried a pomegranate flavored beer I didn't care for it, though it probably didn't help that the beer was room temperature instead of cold.

Nice work. Does this game take place in the same world as "Project Beach House" and if so will any of the characters from that game be appearing in this one?

I know Snarky made or was working on copy/pasting function for the AGS Awards, think he might have posted it as a module.

Edit: Here you go, it's a plugin though.

Thanks, I'll take a look at that.

The hard thing is being able to select part of a text. Just copying all text displayed in a label is simple:

Code: ags

  clipboard = lblMessage.Text;

So how feasible it is depends on what exactly you're after. You need to be way more specific, as in, how exactly would the user select text? How does the text appear? Via Display()? And so on.

Ideally the player would be able to select a portion of text using the cursor and then paste it into the text input window.

Is it possible to have a parser based game that would allow players to copy and paste text in the text entry box or possibly even copy text from ingame text windows? How difficult would such a thing be to code? The first one might be feasible, but the second would be a lot more trickier I imagine.

What about eggnog? Doesn't the alcoholic version have rum in it? Eggnog is one of my favorite drinks, but it's a hard time finding it after Christmas.

Other than that I would suggest some kind of fruit juice. Pineapple would probably work well. Maybe also coconut water. Make yourself a Piña colada.

As far as horror adventure games go I don't think any have really scared me. But back when my modem was working good I used to play a graphical mud in hardcore mode (limited number of lives then if you die and don't have any more your character gets erased) and I was afraid of dying, however the fear in that case was for completely different reasons.
