Proof that TDM forums are intellectual, even the spambots are high brow.

no porn spams either. Proof of asexual? Lulz

I think the Phaedo has to be my favorite dialog. "He who contemplates existence through the medium of ideas, sees them only through a glass darkly".

Thanks! I didn't know about this site.

And so, I could kick up a discussion by just posting something enigmatic. (Actually, there is a hidden meaning, but it is, well, hidden )

... it begins.

so I'm bck home. Finally... time for some guitar play.

Thank you, grayman!

Interesting, quite high sound loss values there.

NB there's a bug with sound loss that causes sound card pops in a complex enough map. It'll be fixed soon in 2.04

Well Gold, Moonbo and myself are trying to get a map out, but no promises.

A coop effort??! ... sound like we're up for sth. cool! :-)

Nope, but I'm contributing some hanged corpses, which fits the theme, I suppose.

I don't know. I've asked modetwo about it but haven't heard back. He's the only one that can do it, I believe.

Thank you, Melan. I hope everything went well

Sotha: That was just the list of presentations - we held the roundtable in a beer garden due to the good weather, had a reception in the evening, and a field trip the next day. Lotsa stuff.

Vae: That's really for the guests to say... but they seemed happy enough, so...

I don't know how it was over there, or if you even got one, but coach hire in the UK was an absolute nightmare. They're such money grabbers, and all miserable as anything.

Eh and where was that, you better not have been over in the UK without saying hello..!!!

It was Brussels, actually. Strange city.

Oh dear, the city of the eurocrats and all things bureaucratic. But I digress, I imagine the rest of the city is nice to visit..?

Thief 2: Behind Closed Doors by Nicked. Heh.

OH wow yes! Going to be playing that tonight for sure

Very cool!

After your a halloween speedbuild I assume..?

Nonono! Do not embrace Chaos.

Embrace Order.

The systematic progression that is under logical control.

The railroad that progresses beautifully from the abstract initial plan to the concrete realization of goals.

Embrace creative chaos, the chaos in the heart of the order, or the order in the heart of the chaos, one of those.

I'm having a bit of an FM break at the mo. Its on my "To Play" list though. I usually get around to playing all Thief / TDM FMs eventually.

Haven't played a T2 FM in ages. Maybe I should get back to it... =)

The amount of Thief FMs released might not be as many as before but there have still been plenty of high quality releases over the past few years. I'd be happy to provide a list of recs.

Let's deport all the revenant and zombie terrorists while we're at it!

And you know who's going to pay for The Wall? We're going to make the Evil Overlord pay for The Wall. It'll be the biggest wall, because I only build great walls. Great walls. It'll keep out everything. Nothing will get through. And the Evil Overlord will pay for it!

seems a bit odd...if the evil overlord has to build it wont they undermine it by putting tunnels under it. Or you could just invest in some boats and come around the ends.

Nice.

This is hard. Hard hard. But very cool.

Oh yeah Hard is definitely tough. You'll die a lot before you can kill most enemies easily.

It is hard enough on Normal. Think I'll restart with a new, more optimised party.

It's dirty, run down and full of thuggish behaviour... you weren't walking around snapping pics for prefabs why???

As a matter of fact... I'll post the best ones.

ahhh yeah

Frobber said he built most of Keeper of the Prophecies on his ~1hr train commute to work.

Too bad my 1 h commute must go by car...

Frobber is a champ then, because I have tried Dromed on my laptop and it was awful. Well, I couldn't do much during the commute anyway since I am within 5 minutes walking distance from my work, so...

Paste the results in your editor, spell check, then do a manual check. Work is work.

Thanks, folks!

If you have Microsoft One Note installed you could maybe screenshot the .pdf pages and then drag them in to One Note and "copy text from picture"

@Obsttorte: Sure, and now there are even more people searching through archives to implicate their opponents.

But the proverb says, "if you have butter on your head, don't go out into the sunlight".

Who said THAT

It's an old folk saying.

Indeed.

I'd like to use them first - but after that, I'll make them available. Some of the general ones may even come before that.

Can't wait

Posted a preview image in the WIP thread. It depicts... a furnace!

jaxa: Duh, forgot I could include URLs in my status updates here (can't do it on other forums).

SiyahParsomen: Sadly, I don't think so either.

Already pledged, even though I haven't played the first one yet. But I like the idea.

Why have I knot heard of this?! If I had the kinda cash they needed, that's something I'd get behind.

Wowa, comment #402 even said the same!

Yeah, that's the thing that hits me. Some people prefer linearity, okay. But to claim Doom-style maps are somehow "too complicated" or "not fun"? That weirds me out.

...it's not like Doom is rocket science or something.

What does the brushcounter say now?

The same. I am not a fast builder nowadays.

well I will be helping with that in due course ;-)
