Currently overspending on old sets.

Excited about the new line, but I still miss 2001...

Well my sleep patterns don't follow the sun exactly. 9am to 2am is my preferred routine, but sometimes I'll have to get up nearer to 7:30am (coughmorelike7:50cough). But evening is still evening, mostly there's just less morning.

I think so... :\

Seems pretty clear to me. It says don't start PMing for exceptions because you probably won't get them, but that when the admins feel it's ok to make an exception, they do it. BS01 is in violation of that rule for instance.

Read the rules. Exceptions are made. Biotech has been cleared several times. And you'll noticed that I've *never* linked directly to a forum.

Can I just say, making topics about FCG in GD was brilliant. Kudos. ^^

Quality over quantity. Let the game speak for itself. For MSN, I believe you would simply add my name.

And is Leppy still alive? o_0

Maybe I'm different, but I'd rather have less posts and a flawless game.

Think we could hold an IM meeting to work on ways to boost forum activity?

Yeah, where you can get your first heatstone. As for having it as a main section...well, it'd bring plenty more people in, but we can't justify it. And the Insurgent is still getting several downloads a day, so we're at least getting something.

I'd have to say probably level design. Figuring out where to have you go after falling into the water took well over a month. Originally if you went to the left there was a quite a sequence planned, but I ended up cutting it because it wasn't really intuitive.

I have deleted nothing.

And just to put the forum issue to rest, a quote from the rule topic: "

** Do not PM BR asking for approval. Approval is not given by request, it is offered if BR feels your forum deserves it and is by invitation only***"

Hardest part...well, I can't really point at any one part and say it was really difficult. More just very detailed and tedious.

By the way, Leppy did get approval for that link, so I wouldn't start reporting it or anything. Certain links are allowed in certain conditions on a case by case basis, that's pretty much my only explanation.

I think we really should start with brand new games. Existing games have too much baggage attached.

There is no forum loophole. You cannot link to forums and you cannot link to sites that contain forums. Very simple. I did neither, which is why my link has been approved several times. Leppy linked directly to the YYG site, which violates several rules, so go bother him about it.

Hardest thing...probably either the Insurgent or this system analysis tool I'm working on.

No, B6 was. I was in charge of getting the games that would be played on it (I didn't get to attend though :\)

Any particular constraints that we could apply to make things more interesting?

Come to think of it, I probably should have posted something like that...heh. My apologies.

Leynok, I've actually been trying for many months now. Both B6 and Screenguy seem open, but the logistics for running one are a mess. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Well, I wouldn't say we have many *rivals* on BZP. I prefer to stay on more friendly terms. I usually just post when I feel I have something useful to contribute. As of late I've been trying to catch up on a lot of the games going around, so maybe I'll start posting some little reviews of them in the topics or something.

Well, technically no, as they do mention in the rules not to ask for exceptions. In this instance, I linked to a site which linked to a site which linked to forums. The Admins have simply said that's ok (in this instance at least). Any link will lead to forums if you look deep enough.

Having Biotech at the top of the page of a relatively obscure forum isn't really a big concern of ours. We just released a game - if people want to talk about it, what's wrong with that?

1) I didn't.

2) I received permission.

Hm?

Hi.

Uh...what?
