- Greetings.
-
- Well, I haven't said anything thus far about Giark's little tiff to
- the List, but I think now's a better time than any:
-
- > Nah, he won't scrap the project. We'd ALL have to track him down and
- > well, it wouldn't be pretty... Besides, after all the hooting and
- > work we've put into this thing as well as the work he has put into
- > this project, I'm sure Mr. Giark will "stick it out".
-
- hehe, that's for sure.
-
- > Are you kidding? They will ALL be playable enough to include in the
- > final game!! I don't know for sure, but judging from what I've come
- > to know of these guys in the time I've been on this list, I'd almost

- um-hmm, ye, ye. That's what I'm winging. If I had put out my demo a
- couple of weeks ago, it would have been TOO SLOW, and I would have
- MOST ASSUREDLY gotten mail from almost every beta-tester saying,
- "This things too slow! Speed it up!" That's what I've been putting my
- time into. I'll be almost finished, then I'll run into some kind of
- trouble and have to go back and rewrite or start over. Writing a
- caster for a game like this for a guy like Giark in a language like
- AMOS is no easy feat, especially considering I've never done it!
- hehe, but that's no matter.
-
- > When all the demos from this next update-wave have arrived, I
- > think CBATNAM will be looking VERY good indeed.
-
- This is what I'm thinking (and hoping).
-
- > If you are interested in checking out the demos currently
- > available, just e-mail Giark and he'll sort you out.
-
- Just word it right, so he wont cuss you out (hehe, just kidding).
