FINISH KQ6 WITHOUT THE LAMP!!!!!!! YOU changed the subject, and then focused
on that damn omniscience thing. I have said MANY that if YOU find it unfair,
that's your perogative. But that WASN'T even the argument!!!! So who wasn't
listening?
>>>>>> Let's get this out of the way: I really thought the lamp thing was
necessary, and I was wrong. Period. The puzzle still suffers from some
seriously amateurish design and Matthew is not changing the subject, he's
just giving his opinion. No one has been able to prove him wrong yet, and
that's because he isn't - some of you won't recognise he's right and will just
accuse him of deviating from the my original argument, which, as far as I'm
concerned, is over. And I still haven't heard of a way around the coin
or rat puzzle, but I might be wrong again. And just because I am admitting my
mistake, it doesn't mean I appreciate RW's work any more now: I still think
she is a bad games designer, and she should stick to running the company
(unless it has been sold, I've heard something of the sort...) and support
people like Jane Jensen (sorry to bring her name again, but that's what talent
is all about).
As for calling RW an imbecile, I wasn't talking about Roberta, the woman; I
wasn't talking about Roberta, the wife, the business woman, the mother (if
that applies). I was calling RW, the games designer, an imbecile. To make my
point clear: Thyago (and that would be me), the driver, is an imbecile. I have
my driver's license, but I recognise I won't be taking my car out in the city
until I'm certain of what I'm doing. I call it responsibility. Still, I'm
sorry I used the word I did, since it apparently offended so many people out
there. Let's just stick to talentless then, because that I won't retract.
Thyago S. M.
