I abstained from voting, but now that IHNMAIMS has won out…

No it didn’t!!!
There are 3 more days of voting!!! But I put your name next to IHNMAIMS in the voting list, since I see that you are willing to join.

Dara100 - 05 September 2013 05:30 PM

It won’t be a “fun” game in the usual sense at all, I’m afraid.

Ahh…Fear is perhaps one right emotion to feel under IHNMAIMS.  Naughty

RayB, you said you heard the new boxes contain the book as well?  Are those the GOG giveaways?  I’m wondering if they’ll be available for purchase because mine doesn’t have a book and where you saw that.

No, by new boxes I meant new old stock as in if you ordered one of the original games from Harlan’s website. I’m assuming that he wants to get rid of some of the other extras as well. Now that the game has been digitally released I don’t know if it directly affects those sales though. For the price of a postage stamp I suppose I could find out as depending on how the CPT goes (assuming that it does Grin) I just might want to order one for myself for posterity.

Just thinking about the title of the game alone gives me the chills.  Laughing

Thanks, RayB.  I went to his site and couldn’t even find my way to the game page, just comics.  It actually looked better than when I was first there years ago, believe it or not.

I guess the ones that retracted their vote, will now retract their retraction.

Of course! That was the whole point of retracting my vote in the first place—so I can retract the retraction. Seriously though, getting IHNMAIMS released today was the best possible outcome and the one I was hoping for. I am looking forward to the (inevitable) IHNMAIMS playthrough.

Well, despite my vote for another game, I decided to give this one a try. But true to my earlier comments about GOG problems, this has hit a new high. My money was accepted, but the game will not install.

$5.99 is not a big deal. Write it off and never deal with them again. But it pisses me off. I’ve already dealt with a 25% failure rate on installed games. and now I can’t even get one to install.

Count me in if I can get the game to install.

Otherwise I will be back promoting ITE.

Hi rtrooney, I’m sorry that you’re experiencing problems installing the game - have you tried their support link about the game & ones that you’ve had trouble with in the past? If you try everything they suggest to no avail & contact them directly & they still can’t help they should refund your money - you shouldn’t have to write-it-off!

Ok people, the voting just turned into a one-game-show. IHNMAIMS has gathered 15 (!!!) votes (New Record) and is almost a certain winner. Still, there are two more days of voting (perhaps an unecessary typicality)...

Well I finally did get the game installed. I let it play itself through the initial scenes to make sure it worked. Still not sure it does. For those that complained about the retro graphics of ITE…REALLY?

So at least I am no longer “Optional”

Is this just a weird coincidence, or something’s wrong with the forums so there’s only one post today so far? Grin

Due to RL issues I’m still stuck with Obsidian, haven’t really had time to play at all Frown You might have noticed that I haven’t had time to visit the forum much either.

I would like to try to get it done and join the next playthrough but I can’t promise anything, especially if you are starting it very soon. My timetable should be getting a bit easier now but I’m still much behind in many other things. Anyway there’s no chance for me to lead the Discworld in a while (though it is not ruled out for the future), but I can join it if someone else leads. I will try to join pretty much any other game too as soon as I’m done with Obsidian. (Perhaps not the Tex Murphy games since I played them quite recently and I need to play The Overseer and not these two)

Hey, it’s US Open semifinals day.

As far as I’m concerned, it is a Eurobasket week as well.  Smile
