Uhh... here's an idea to give us a decent grasp on how long these games 
really take.

We make a file on all of our thoughts and wishes and everything about 
Quake, with comments from tons of people. The file will be pretty big.

Then we time-encrypt it to be opened in Winter 1995 (this year) at the 
latest. Then, we read the old file when we're finally playing Quake and 
say, "Geez, I can't believe how right I was", or "Goddamn, we thought 
Quake would rock, and here it is..." or "Jeez, I was on a fricking 
stone-ager! A clanky Pentium 100! My god!" or "Wow, we never DID foresee 
biochip implants and mind immersion..." etc etc. This is an exaggerated 
suggestion with humor.
