TSL Coming Soon?!

[tessspoon]

BTW Neil,
How did you get to show up as two letters?

I was wondering the same thing.

[awesomeasapossum]

He probably has magical admin powers.

[dark-daventry]

He put a period after it, so it cancels out. At least, thats what I think he did. Also, you did well with the DP thing. I was wondering wheter it actually existed! That Ebay photo is what really threw me off!

[tessspoon]

Putting a period after doesn't do anything, I've done it lots of times before, like this:  . Putting something like a letter or slash (though not a period) before it cancels it, but then you've got the slash showing.

[Elessar]

Here's how he did it. (I inserted some spaces between the braces.)

It might not stand for anything at all, like Pokemon X[ b ][ /b ]D.

[tessspoon]

Ah ha!

:P

Cool. That's clever.

[Yonkey]

Heh yeah, you just put any tag in between them with no text.  I saw someone do that on some other forum some time ago.

Oh, and A3P, I guess you've never heard of this game: Pokemon XD!

[awesomeasapossum]

Ha! I actually have heard of it, but it was a long time ago!

[dark-daventry]

Remind me to try that out sometime! Very clever Neil! So, back on topic... I do hope that something will happen with TSL soon. Does Say's departure affect the release of the game and/or any community updates? I look forward to it's release!

[Yonkey]

Does Say's departure affect the release of the game and/or any community updates?

It doesn't affect production, but it does affect updates.  An official statement on this will be announced soon.

An official statement on this will be announced soon.

How? It was actually pure luck I stumbled onto Say's Farewell-thread since I don't frequent the General-section of the forums. I don't even frequent all the thread in this section so if someone hadn't put that link in a thread I was frequenting I probably wouldn't have noticed it.
I'd figured it wouldn't affect production, since she is/was PR.

[Yonkey]

I'll post a journal entry, but I'm just waiting to hear back from Michael B first.  I guess if I don't hear anything by tomorrow, I'll post it then.

[dark-daventry]

Cool, I'm definitely reading that journal entry. I can see how it affects updates, considering how Say was the one who managed them all. Has a successor been chosen, or is that confidential information? In the meantime, I look forward to reading this journal entry for any new information.

[PirateKingChris]

I suspect the new entry will mostly pertain to saying goodbye to Say and perhaps naming someone to take her place, and not much new actual game info. That's ok with me though, this is an important thing that's happened.

[Yonkey]

It's now posted.

[dark-daventry]

Cool. I'm glad you guys told us that there are going to be minimal site updates, instead of leaving us wondering (not that you guys ever would do that to us!). I do hope that people will not ask you guys about site updates, as that will get to be annoying, I'm sure. Although I think I can safely say that the forum regulars like me will go around and tell the people that ask that an update will be posted when it's posted, and that bothering the team will solve nothing.

[Yonkey]

Well, like I said before, we're still going through with the Fannatic thing, so there will be some updates related to that.

And yes, replying to the same questions over and over again is a waste of time and effort for everyone, the constant nagging doesn't make anyone work any faster, and it obviously does not improve team morale whatsoever.  But, there will always be people out there that do not understand this, which is why they are free to speak their mind to feedback@tsl-game.com.

[dark-daventry]

Well, I'm happy that there is a recepticle for such comments. Then again, a lot of the time it's new members that ask the questions and don't neccesarily know that asking the team such questions is useless. When I started out on the forum, I don't think I knew that questions like that were annoying. But I mean updates will be scarce now. Of course, with contests there will be updates and such, but besides that, not too much. Speaking of contests, will this update cutdown effect any contests in the future? Will new contests in the planning stages be post-poned/cancelled?

[awesomeasapossum]

I think it'd be cool to have the Forumers collaborate and come up with new and interesting content to keep other hungry fans at bay. We could have poems, stories, music, little games, etc. What do ya'll think? If it's fine with the team, I wouldn't mind organizing it.

[PirateKingChris]

Ah, guess I was wrong about what the update entailed. Thanks for it, Neil!
