Real_Lucas Posted September 25, 2001 Report Share Posted September 25, 2001 Lord David - I didn't see any mention of Pennywise the clown.....then again, maybe it's an "easter egg" in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpotSD Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 quote:give a thousand different "choices" instead of one Yeah but maybe if you take all the work that you would have put into thousands of genres and put it into one genre you just might come up with one that's a thousand times better.

Joel Schultz Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 I think I'll do what was done in the lost "Count-down-to-Gold" thread and do a major update Friday afternoon. But I'm going to one up it by incorporating SC's patented light green VCF text so you know what the new additions are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpotSD Posted September 27, 2001 Report Share Posted September 27, 2001 quote: SpotSD . FREELANCE (an acronym, see here for meaning) Actually I didn't mean it to be an acronym. I meant for the word to be taken literally by its gaming definition. It means virtually boundless when it comes to places to go, things to see, options esc...I find it very appropriate that the dictionary definition of freelance.1 : a person who acts independently without being affiliated with or authorized by an organization 2 : a person who pursues a profession without a long-term commitment to any one employer Describes the indie company BC3000AD perfectly.What I said on page one.
