I think there's another slump in activity due to Nova as well as the bandwith it's hogging when it's being downloaded. Ughh, slow boards.

Probably, I know I am. But, as with when CGE came out, as soon as the rush dies down we should have a few new members.

For my part, I just spent a quiet weekend in a little place called Campbell's Bay, just north of Kakanui. It was a tiny cabin overlooking the sea, and the weather was marvelous; just the thing I needed to revive me after several weeks of working eleven and a half hours a day, 5 days a week (thank goodness that's over! 
)
One thing that'll please a few of you, I managed to finish the main storyline for part 4 of Dark Legacy. Now I just need to finish off the epilogue and do a couple of revision sessions, and it'll be ready to submit.

Cheers, cache!
My break ended yesterday, but I'll still be hanging around...
Hopefully the internet stops being screwy for me and I won't have trouble loading pages anymore. I have a feeling once Bane picks up, we'll be getting some more posts!

Not yet, all I need to do now is get to a Mac with sufficient power

How long have you been playing, Kat? Took me about a month the first time, a week the second time and two days the third. [/topic drift]

Actually, I haven't got very far on it at all
; The amount of time I've actually spent playing was maybe half an hour, since it's on Iridium's comp and he's usually using it. I don't know if it will run on here.Yup, slight topic drift.

Probably well...Cythera, and another something relating to Omen. Gandreas did hint that he does want revenge...

As I recall, gandreas said he'd already written the the scripts to Cythera 2 and 3, but he decided not to make the games.
Which reminds me: Glenn, if you still read the boards, could you give us the scripts so we could make Cythera 2 with Coldstone? It'd bring more attention to your game and eventually make you some money.

I'm beginning to think that we should hold a memorial service for this place or something. It's becoming very close to being officially dead. Not counting this one, I believe we've had 5 posts today.

Some people say I have too much time on my hands. I say their hands aren't big enough.

Of course there is also:
Tactics of Cythera (a tactical, turn based combat heavy game)
Halls of Maayti (a 3D puzzle solving game, with a Seldane twist)
Powers of the Undine (something not completely unlike a sort of collectable card game)
Merchant of Cythera (trade your way to become the head of a powerful House)
Cythera Online (well, that would be obvious what it is, wouldn't it)
------------------

That would be a cool feature for Cythera 2 (if it is ever made).
