VN Ren'Py Completed Wicked Choices: Book One [Remastered v1.0.1] [ASLPro3D]

[Safetydummy]

@ASLPro3D (I swear trying to figure out this multi-quote, multi-repost stuff is going to see me institutionalized...)

Apologies to ALL is this the 9th time that you've seen this message.

Thank you for your patronage, Harlequin1229 and your belief in us enough to support us and the work that we are doing, that means a lot to us!!!

• Here's a blast from the past (Page 17)! You, sir, are un-Google-able. I was trying to see if I could find some of the comics that you did write for (mainstream, splinter, independents) and could find nothing at all. I'm sure due to confidentiality or the signing of numerous NDA's you're unable to name companies, titles, brands, etc.,. That is a shame- I would have been interested in seeing the evolution of your creative brilliance.

As for the stuff I've written, I've written comic books under the name Michael Lee Scott for both the independent sector and for one of the big three (back in the early 90's, just before the variant cover nightmare...). As for novels, I have one that is out now called "Ebon Knights: Knight's Fall" with cover art done by my good friend Dorian Cleavenger.

• I have not read a book in decades. LOL The last thing I remember was going back and re-reading Dune, about 5-6 years ago. (Great book, btw), actually- I take that back it was one of the Discworld Books: Hogfather. The TV adaptation is decently done and Susan- you definitely wouldn't mind her coming to collect you at the The End... Sorry, lost my train of thought, (still recovering from the image of Syrina with a paddle... I so hate you right now). If your writing in this game is any indication of the level of detail you put into your projects- I'm going to try and track down a copy of your book. I have only the highest expectations from it and sure that I won't be dissapointed. (Even though, yeah, I still kinda hate you... j/k)

I have three other novels that are on the way... one a sequel to Ebon Knights, another a spin-off from it called "Books of the Flesh" and the third which is a sci-fi action/thriller which will be our second game once "Wicked Choices" is complete.

I also do the writing and ad-copy work for Yamato Toys USA, particularly their DC Fantasy Figure Line for (with famous artist Luis Royo who designs the characters that are turned into figurines), as well as, many of Yamato Toys USA's other figurine lines (Greek Goddesses and Egyptian Goddesses series).

• I actually used to have some of these- they did a Batman Series, did they not? I actually bought a case of them from the Comic Book Store where I used to volunteer. The Harley Quinn was by far the best from that series. They also made little Batman gashapons in blind boxes, if I'm not mistaken. You lucky sod- Luis Royo is a fantastic artist, some of his fantasy work is the best! His style is kinda like Geiger, but without the Alien, phallic, pleather, overly-sexualized sheen that he puts on everything- and if/when Geiger decides to draw actual people.

So there is a good chance, you might've stumbled across my work at some point.

I'll have sweet sweet revenge "like Mel Tillis said"
I don't have a good song for not hurting me if i did i would post it for the creators of the game. My waifus need to survive (i'm crawling on the floor bagging please let them survive)


PS. I forgot to say that i seen the post that said what ASL stands for.

@ASLPro3D

No worries, it took me a while to learn to do (a lot of cut and pasting), sometimes still screw up with "Spoilers" and on the Opening Page when updating the game... so don't stress it, you aren't alone!

• I'm beginning to the think that I may be legally retarded (*boo*, *hiss*, *PC*, *SJW*)= bite me. I've had over 20 +years of I.T. experience and can't figure out something as simple as a forum?! Yup, retarded. So now, I'm relegated to copying ALL of it, tagging you, pasting it into a reply and deleting the comments you responded to above it. LOL

Yeah, my level of social interaction these days are mostly Net based these days... being physically disabled as the result of maturing time and several spinal surgeries (after events from my time in the service) has awarded me little that I can do - except to sit home, render and write.

• I know what you mean, I don't really get out to much these days either- I've had a spate of bad luck myself that's knocked me down quite a few pegs, halted a lot of my progress, and just put me in a perpetual state of ennui.

No PITY from anyone please... as I don't want or need it. I get by as best I can, as I am a firm believer that life is meant to be LIVED and not just SURVIVED and I do my best to live it the fullest, regardless of my current circumstances and health.

• I would never pity you and it sounds like despite what happened- you're not bitter or angry about it. You knew what you were getting into and what potentially could happen- and you did what you had to do. I will continue to Thank You for your Service (as well as ALL vets) because whether or not you think/feel that you made a difference- you did. You know what they say about the tiniest ripple in a lake? Think of it like that and be proud.

My point is: I can fully understand where you are coming from @Safetydummy and you now have a place and thread where you are free to wax poetically all you want and be appreciated for it, so don't think that your thoughts or word hold no meaning to people, as here they do.

• I do appreciate that and thank you Jack, and likewise to you. My internet door is always open, sometimes.
  
• And thank you to the rest of the members of this site/forum- you're welcoming, friendly and helpful.

LOL!! Thanks!!

• You are more than beyond welcome- 5 Stars does seem rather limiting though. I did have to reformat it a tad- I took out the questions and the spoilers, I wanted people to experience it for themselves- and if they can get through my garbled mess of a thought process and play it, I have no doubt that they too, will come to the same conclusion(s) and feel the exact same way.

I got my start working in the comic book industry not long after my release from the military and after the separation from my first wife... because of the separation I wrote under an alias to hide my identity to keep a woman who saw fit to occupy her time, while I was away, with my best friend... as such, I was unwilling to provide her with anything else (money or otherwise) for her betrayal...

• If only you had that HUD for her stats...

I wrote as Michael Lee Scott in those days... a combination of my uncle's name, my mother's middle name and one of my friend's first name (not the one that betrayed me with my wife) and worked for one of the Big Two. My separation from that studio came pretty much at the same time as some of my friends at Image decided to also break away... like them, I decided to start my own Independent company (with the help of Randy Zimmerman of Arrow Comics and Gary Reed of Caliber Comics).

• That is really cool- I've already covered some of this in the other post that I went back in time to get, but still really cool. Hopefully one of your friends wasn't Liefeld, I was "removed" from a convention for mocking his lack of ability to draw feet (they were almost always cut off by the panel [even in a splash page] or covered up by something in the foreground). I remember that you said it was around the time of the variant cover(s) fiasco... Ugh, do I remember that- what an unmitigated nightmare. It's not any better now (not sure if you're aware), but now they have incentive variants, order variants, convention variants, on-line variants, etc.,. kill me now. The last "brilliant" thing that they did was re-re-release older (Silver & Bronze Age) stuff with- wait for it, Chromium Covers. Remember those? They cost $5.00 back then and now in Gem Mint condition are worth $2.00. The gatefolds and wraparounds were quite awful as well. I don't recall Arrow Comics, but I do remember Caliber Comics (vaguely). The Crow and Faust, seem to stand out in my mind- maybe?

My stuff, for as good as it is written, never took off like it did with Marc and Erik's did at Image... but it times were changing in the industry in more ways than creators and artist's bail from an unappreciative ship; and that was video games.

• That's truly a shame- you should have done "Wicked Choices" and had someone like Linsner do the illustrations- that comic would hang the Louvre!

While the industry was in serious upheaval, I noticed that attendances were starting to dwindle... not as many kids or interest... being a gamer myself from the days of Intelivision and Zork, I fell in love with Final Fantasy 7 and decided that was were kids would go to seek entertainment, rather than comic books... so my first goal of getting into the video game industry was born.

• I do recall an upheaval or rather a general disenfranchisement with the whole thing- Crossovers started the downfall of the comics IMHO. Forcing people to buy 12 books they normally didn't read- just to get 1 complete story just kinda killed everything. Variants- the final nails.

• Oh, how I remember those- Colecovision, Atari 2600, Commodore 64, man our video games sucked. LOL That was rather forward thinking on your part.

Not knowing how to do 3D back then, I began to come up with a plan that would allow me to gather all of those that DID know how to do it, that I could maybe pick from to do my own game (oh how little I knew about the work, money and staff needed to build a professional game back then)... so, by working with 3D software companies like Zygote (before it became DAZ3D), MetaCreations (before it became Curious Labs and was sold to Smith Micro), Autodesk (3D Studio Max) and Alias Wavefront (before Maya was sold to Autodesk) and other, I built two websites that would pull 3D artists all together and use that user base as a means to help aspiring artists learn those programs by using the member base to help each other in forums, while providing galleries for artists to showcase their work and talent, maybe get work and online stores to sell their own work in...

Those sites were Renderosity.com and Renderotica.com and, though I no longer own them, they still are up and doing the mission that I had started back in the late 90's... but through all of that work, effort and desire, I never did get into the video game industry till I sold them off (running sites like that and this one is a full time job, believe me).

• Wow- I can't even begin to imagine the work and dedication that all of this must have taken you. I like the way you gathered everyone together, so that you could glean information and experience off of one another- almost like a tech-commune.

Lots more has happened since those days, wrote a novel where the cover was done by friend (and famed artist) Dorian Cleavenger and now work in the video game industry as a freelance and have started my first game: "Wicked Choices" to see if people would get into my writing and work.

• I did look into your book and is the cover in question with the woman looking into a mirror with her reflection screaming back at her? If so, your friend is quite talented. If not, then I have no idea what you're talking about. LOL Well, you already know that I'm a fan.

But yeah... lived an interesting and strange life; but doing the things I always dreamed about doing. LOL

• I have said this before and shall say it again, as it bears repeating- you are truly and fascinating individual, and the last time I said was only because you were going to be a priest.

@ASLPro3D (I swear trying to figure out this multi-quote, multi-repost stuff is going to see me institutionalized...)

Apologies to ALL is this the 9th time that you've seen this message.

Okay a quick way to do it... at least the way that I do it, is to click on "Reply" at the beginning of the reply (going to use you as an example as I am replying to you... every start of the part you want to quote needs to have "QUOTE="Safetydummy, post: 770977, member: 386151" with a "[" in front of it and a "]" at the end after the member number and the quotation mark of the member number... then you need the "/QUOTE" also placed within the "[" and "]" and that is one area of quotes.... then wash, rinse repeat, using cut and paste for each part you want to quote.

• Here's a blast from the past (Page 17)! You, sir, are un-Google-able. I was trying to see if I could find some of the comics that you did write for (mainstream, splinter, independents) and could find nothing at all. I'm sure due to confidentiality or the signing of numerous NDA's you're unable to name companies, titles, brands, etc.,. That is a shame- I would have been interested in seeing to evolution of your creative brilliance.

Yeah, NDA's and confidentiality agreements can be a pain... but I do have to abide by them... and one of the reasons why it is so hard to Google it is back then... AOL was just starting... most of us were still using BBS and mIRC to converse... there was NO Yahoo, no Google or Bing back then... it was the wild west of the Internet.

Additionally, when I started the websites... PHBB was pretty much still in BETA format... and had more members than Myspace at first (Facebook wasn't even around then). LOL

So yeah, I was gifted in growing up in an age where there was no such thing as a digital footprint... yet, still, these days my imprint is pretty large and deep, but not back then.

• I have not read a book in decades. LOL The last thing I remember was going back and re-reading Dune, about 5-6 years ago. (Great book, btw), actually- I take that back it was one of the Discworld Books: Hogfather. The TV adaptation is decently done and Susan- you definitely wouldn't mind her coming to collect you at the The End... Sorry, lost my train of thought, (still recovering from the image of Syrina with a paddle... I so hate you right now). If your writing in the this game is any indication of the level of detail you put into your projects- I'm going to try and track down a copy of your book. I have only the highest expectations from it and sure that I won't be dissapointed. (Even though, yeah, I still kinda hate you... j/k)

Yeah, I'd like to think my novel is as complex.... or as deep as my game is. I am not the best judge of that... you can ask @Palanto Games or @Wyrme what their opinion is and if it is comparable to the game, as I know they've read my novel.

I can tell you that "Ebon Knights" was supposed to be a sequel "Crow" comic book series for Caliber Comics, with James O'Barr... but some James was going through a difficult time at that stage in his life and he and I felt it best to shelve it... at which point, I resurrected it some 20 odd years later, altered it quite a bit and turned it into a vampire novel.

​

• I actually used to have some of these- they did a Batman Series, did they not? I actually bought a case of them from the Comic Book Store where I used to volunteer. The Harley Quinn was by far the best from that series. They also made little Batman gashapons in blind boxes, if I'm not mistaken. You lucky sod- Luis Royo is a fantastic artist, some of his fantasy work is the best! His style is kinda like Geiger, but without the Alien, phallic, pleather, overly-sexualized sheen that he puts on everything- and if/when Geiger decides to draw actual people.

Yep, then you have some of my writing, right there on the sides of the boxes and on the official seal insert... Have worked with Take Issaki and his family, along with Jeff Hashimoto for years now doing most of their advertising copy and have been fortunate to become friends with them, along with Luis Royo... it still amazes me the amount of REAL talented people that I've gotten to work and become friends with. Many of this generations Divinci's, Rembrandt's, van Gogh's... in Dorian, Royo, the Hildebrandt brothers, Wei Ho and Oliva.

Truly, I've been very fortunate, lucky and blessed to have had the opportunities that I've had.

 

[ASLPro3D]

Yep, my bad, I only downloaded the update. Thanks for your reply and I take back everything! Looking forward to starting it tonight!

Glad you got it sorted out @Harbinger88 and look forward to hearing your thoughts on it!

 

[Wyrme]

I have not read a book in decades. LOL The last thing I remember was going back and re-reading Dune, about 5-6 years ago. (Great book, btw)

Not to be a gooey eyed fanboy, but I enjoyed the novel for all the same reasons I love the game(well except there is no Syrina *sigh*) Great mental images(well intense anyway ), grand interplay of allies/enemies/frenemies, and fun twists of lines along the way. I expounded upon it earlier, but will not spoil the fun discovery. I am a book geek, but recommend it for anyone with a sense for twists of (un)common myths.
P.S. the multi-quote snafu'd me as well for a fair bit, I found highlighting each segment, then clicking the +quote dropdown the easiest way. Click add quotes, then I could edit out the ones I didn't need, ie. joke was lamer than I realized, well responded already, or lost that thought as I wandered down the thread.

I'll have sweet sweet revenge "like Mel Tillis said"

You mean Mel T-T-Tillis. Sorry couldn't resist :evilsmile:

I know what you mean, I don't really get out to much these days either- I've had a spate of bad luck myself that's knocked me down quite a few pegs, halted a lot of my progress, and just put me in a perpetual state of ennui.

We all have those periods in our life... that is the time to rise up, grab life by the balls and squeeze for all your worth... after all, we only get one turn on this crazy merry-go-round we call life... so live it to it's fullest and be damned any who try to get in your way...

...and if you bruise a few egos or piss some folks off, well fuck it, there's still 7 billion other individuals out there that are still waiting for you to piss off in some way! LOL

At least that's how I look at things!

*thumbs up sign* Yeah the folks here are AWESOME!!

That is really cool- I've already covered some of this in the other post that I went back in time to get, but still really cool.

I don't recall Arrow Comics, but I do remember Caliber Comics (vaguely). The Crow and Faust, seem to stand out in my mind- maybe?

Yeah "The Crow", "Faust", "Deadworld" (before there was a "Walking Dead") and "OZ" was Caliber Comics.

As for Rob Liefield, never interacted with him... I can tell you that Todd McFarlane and I do NOT get along (just ask George Takei who witnessed one episode between the both of us at a con... not pretty).

Yeah, I remember the Variant fiasco... it is part of what drove a nail in the coffin to Capital City Distribution, as well as, many mom and pop shops... and was just after I bailed from a particular company that overindulged in that sort of thing... *sigh*

A sad day for comic collectors and shop keepers... a real clusterfuck.

That's truly a shame- you should have done "Wicked Choices" and had someone like Linsner do the illustrations- that comic would hang the Louvre!

I didn't come up with "Wicked Choices" till just a little over a year ago now... this is BY FAR my least developed story ever done... that, and even if I had, Joseph's too occupied with "Dawn" to focus on anything else, or was back then.

• Wow- I can't even begin to imagine the work and dedication that all of this must have taken you. I like the way you gathered everyone together, so that you could glean information and experience off of one another- almost like a tech-commune.

Yeah, once I get an idea, I work on it till I complete it... I am stubborn that way and there is always a method to my madness (or at least to me there is).

I did look into your book and is the cover in question with the woman looking into a mirror with her reflection screaming back at her? If so, your friend is quite talented. If not, then I have no idea what you're talking about. LOL Well, you already know that I'm a fan.

• Oh, I'm trying believe me- I haven't given up just yet.

• I, too, consider it my mission to piss off as many people as possible.

Thank you, I shall endeavor to try...

• Do or do not, there is no try.

*thumbs up sign* Yeah the folks here are AWESOME!!

• I concur.

Yeah "The Crow", "Faust", "Deadworld" (before there was a "Walking Dead") and "OZ" was Caliber Comics.

• "Faust" was one of the sickest, most twisted books I read back then- I still Love the cover for "Claire Are You Lonesome Tonight" with the straight razor. I have a feeling nightmares dream of him. Lol His stuff was pretty graphic and has only gotten graphic-er. I actually met his (Vigil's) brother at a con- they were trying to start "Rebel Comics" (if memory serves)- him and the guy he was with were really nice, sadly, I don't know if it went anywhere. They were self-publishing and that's not an easy thing to do.

As for Rob Liefield, never interacted with him... I can tell you that Todd McFarlane and I do NOT get along (just ask George Takei who witnessed one episode between the both of us at a con... not pretty).

• Oh My. (George Takei is so awesome.) Yeah, I heard from other artists and writers at cons that McFarlane was a bit of a todger. It was worse after his success with Spider-man and Spawn, from what they said.

Yeah, I remember the Variant fiasco... it is part of what drove a nail in the coffin to Capital City Distribution, as well as, many mom and pop shops... and was just after I bailed from a particular company that overindulged in that sort of thing... *sigh*
A sad day for comic collectors and shop keepers... a real clusterfuck.

• It's still going strong and just as unpopular as ever. The store where I volunteered had to order 100 copies of an "Army of Darkness" book, just the get the Necronomicon Variant cover and then there was the Obama/Spider-man debacle...

I didn't come up with "Wicked Choices" till just a little over a year ago now... this is BY FAR my least developed story ever done... that, and even if I had, Joseph's too occupied with "Dawn" to focus on anything else, or was back then.

• Dawn is still around, he still does one-shots here and there- but mostly he's doing (ironically, as per our conversation) variant covers for the 1 of the biggies as well as Indies. A LOT of Betty Page stuff, for some reason.

Yeah, once I get an idea, I work on it till I complete it... I am stubborn that way and there is always a method to my madness (or at least to me there is).

• So few people today have that type of drive or motivation- they're kinda spoiled or on Facebook all the time.

Hehehe... trust me, you'd know his other work better... here, let me help you some...

You must be registered to see the links

• Bookmarked. I still have that X-Men cover as well as the Hellraiser one. This guy is good- and (a callback to earlier) apparently a Geiger fan also and maybe (I think it's) Sorayama(?) You can definitely see the influence. It looks like he does box art for Revoltech or Kotobukiya figures as well- I used to have some of these too.

You may know his work better from the covers of Heavy Metal Magazine.

• That was actually the first thing that popped into my head when the page loaded- I hadn't finished reading your post yet. I remember that mag- it's still around I think, but I haven't picked up one in decades.

• Uhhhhh, I do believe that you've warped my fragile, little mind.

Yeah, NDA's and confidentiality agreements can be a pain... but I do have to abide by them... and one of the reasons why it is so hard to Google it is back then... AOL was just starting... most of us were still using BBS and mIRC to converse... there was NO Yahoo, no Google or Bing back then... it was the wild west of the Internet.

• Yeah, had to sign quite a few leaving the Navy- so I know what you mean.
• You're right about that, Pardner. *Hic* *p-ting* You mentioned BBS'- then you surely remember "Rusty and Edie's" out of Chicago- it took a whole week to DL one blurry, semi-attractive nipple. LOL Kids today have no idea how lucky they are with their 5G, T1, DSL, Wi-fi...
• Who could forget *Ding* "You've got mail" or surfing newsgroups, MIME format, 14.4 K/Baud Modems. Not only did our games suck- our internet sucked. mIRC, ICQ, Actual Chat- you're really laying on the liver spots- knock it off. LOL

Additionally, when I started the websites... PHBB was pretty much still in BETA format... and had more members than Myspace at first (Facebook wasn't even around then). LOL

• I'm sorry, what is PHBB? Ah, pre-Facebook- those were the days. No poking, no IM'ing, no Farmville, ah- nostalgia.

So yeah, I was gifted in growing up in an age where there was no such thing as a digital footprint... yet, still, these days my imprint is pretty large and deep, but not back then.

• True- I'm sure this site and all its users are on a watch-list somewhere...

Yeah, I'd like to think my novel is as complex.... or as deep as my game is. I am not the best judge of that... you can ask @Palanto Games or @Wyrme what their opinion is and if it is comparable to the game, as I know they've read my novel.

• I did see that Wyrme mentioned something about it further up- I'm going to have to check it out. Still playing catch up with y'all. However, much like the game- I want to experience it for myself- without opinion, without bias.

I can tell you that "Ebon Knights" was supposed to be a sequel "Crow" comic book series for Caliber Comics, with James O'Barr... but some James was going through a difficult time at that stage in his life and he and I felt it best to shelve it... at which point, I resurrected it some 20 odd years later, altered it quite a bit and turned it into a vampire novel.

• Oh wow, I can only the collaboration that would have been. That would have been an awesome book, probably a better graphic novel though- that way there would just be more of it.

Yep, then you have some of my writing, right there on the sides of the boxes and on the official seal insert... Have worked with Take Issaki and his family, along with Jeff Hashimoto for years now doing most of their advertising copy and have been fortunate to become friends with them, along with Luis Royo... it still amazes me the amount of REAL talented people that I've gotten to work and become friends with. Many of this generations Divinci's, Rembrandt's, van Gogh's... in Dorian, Royo, the Hildebrandt brothers, Wei Ho and Oliva.

• Sadly, it's in past-tense- I had to get rid of a lot of my stuff; comics, statues, figures, books, props, etc.,.- for a number of reasons, but I do remember Harley Quinn facing the mirror and the detail was amazing.
• You have indeed been fortunate- ye bastard, I'm so jealous. Lol Not really, but you have been incredibly lucky.

Truly, I've been very fortunate, lucky and blessed to have had the opportunities that I've had.

• Okay, no need to rub it in.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'm not the "Special needs" case that I thought I was- now I can get my money back for the "Little Yellow Bus Pass" that I bought.

No Syrina?! Then how can you Love it?!
Thank you for not going into any detail or giving away any spoilers- I am going to hunt down a copy of it though, if I like this and it's written by him- I can only imagine how great of a book he's capable of writing. Even without Syrina. :'(
(and you can be a gooey-eyed fanboy, it's okay- you're among friends...)

Wow... so many walls of text on this thread! I was trying to skim through it to see if my specific bug had been reported, and I didn't see it, so here goes:

I have an old save from v0.4.1.0, and I just used the 0.4.1.1 to 0.4.5.0 patch method. I progressed through the story a little ways and I'm getting an error. I rolled back and went to save, and it's prompting me for a save description. At least, I think it is, because the text above the text entry field says "Gib einen Namen fur den Spielstand ein:". Not sure which language that is... German? Swedish? Ancient Celtic? Nevermind... the point is, the translation engine seems to be having trouble there.

tis Deutsch for sure. As our programmer(did I just do the fatal fan flaw of implying he's part of the team ) is of Germany. As to the error, I think I saw that come up an update or two ago. Will search to see if I can find specifics, but a fresh dl of main game and then update patch may solve even if ya have to skip through prior scenes (though why would one want to do so? )

@Safetydummy Don't forget to get back the rental fee for the hockey gear for the bus ride, it adds up, I know!

First, any save before 0.4.2.2 will throw errors, variables had been changed back in February/March and required players to start over... so any save prior to 0.4.2.2 will not work with 0.4.2.2 to the current 0.4.5.0. (as such despite your previous choices, Syrina won't recognize you as Master/Slave and the Relationship between Carina/Lynara won't display properly, it will always go to DEFAULT relationship).

As for the German, that was @Palanto Games, our programmer, testing out new code for players to name their saves for themselves to keep track of their choices better... he is German, as a result, he wrote the beta code in German and, like we wrote in the changelog, we'll be fixing it to English in the next update.

Hey @Safetydummy, read what your wrote, but limited on time right now, so can't respond and also heavily doped up on pain meds right now, so will get a response when the muscle relaxers and pain killers wear off... but did read it!

I might keep the helmet- do you think "Safetydummy" is a compliment? Lol

No worries, it will give you time to sleep and dream up new images to put into my head that will make me a pariah when I go out in public.

I don't know if this will help you or not, but when the German text window pops up- I just double right-click without having to put anything in the box.
Right click to save -> Click where you want to save -> German box pops up -> Right click -> Right click again and it should take you back to the game. It's been working for me and I had to start All over from the beginning AND I spam save the Hell out of my games, as I've said before- I do it so much that Monty Python wrote a song about me.
