Default Re: Slight chance of horor mark(O really)

Aezeal, I hardly see what high school cheerleaders have to do with this.

I mean, they're seniors, right? Turned 18 recently, I'm sure. I'm trusting, I don't need to see ID. >.>


It's a shame, when I finally open my game design studio, I hardly see how my brother could even pretend to do anything to help..... Maybe when that time comes, I could grab an hour or two of your time once in awhile, Johan?

As far as Jack Daniels goes, I don't drink whisky or bourbon except on very rare occasions and I'm not too much into alcohol anyway.

I appreciate the joke and take it in the spirit it was made, but see the part below, which is intended for general consumption:

If you need clarification, any circumstances that would give rise to an official manual addendum, because Shrapnel already has other people who have done the manual and are better specialists in it. Digging up all the stuff even with the errata thread would be a massive pain in the arse and I'm not getting paid for anything I've done so far. I do not have a personal need for the manual addendum and I hardly need the manual itself except for the turn resolution order and a couple of the formula pages. Can't have opened it more than two or three dozen times all told.

Because I do not have any personal interest in producing the addendum, the condition that I would do so immediately jumps to the realm of large amounts of cold, hard cash. More cash in fact than Shrapnel would need to pay someone else to do it professionally on a commission, because the time taken to do it would come out of the free time I have, thus out of the time I could spend with my GF or doing other things. That already triples what I would ask for a commissioned work I'd do full time.

I really mean all of that in all seriousness. DO NOT badger me about it. Any of you. It will turn very unpleasant very quickly if you do. I've done enough for this community first unasked, then voluntarily when I was offered the opportunity to manage the bug list, that at this point any more requests to do more, such as have been made in this thread, start sounding suspiciously like demands.

Obviously it depends on the manner in which the request is made, but one reason why I categorically stated that I will not do this was to put paid to any such considerations before they arose. At this point, I will keep doing the projects I have been doing for the community, because I also have a personal interest in those. Anything new I do is either on my own or as a special favor to a select few people and that list basically boils down to:
  • Illwinter
  • Shrapnel Games, depending on the issue
  • The Beta Group, who will probably ask in the beta forum anyway
  • Some others who I have talked with about either my own projects or theirs and whom I know well
  • People who have made substantial contributions to the DB (listed in the credits and usually covered by one of the above as well)
Cool man cool. Most of us don,t realy care that much and if you don't want do it thats fine. Besides it seems like it would be very boring grunt work.
