I thought you guys might enjoy seeing some more support since I've been reading quite a few complaints on the lack of updates on the website. All I can say to those complaints are, "Lol!" I mean, most of them say how you should quit because you're losing support. I'll be the first one to deny them a download when they come back wanting to download the completed version of the game. You should insert this code at the beginning of the installer:
if(user!=supporter){
explodeTslCopy(10);
}
The 10 is the starting number for the countdown. It will look much like this:

If you'll notice the disabled close boxes. This makes sure they don't prematurely interrupt the explosion. :suffer:
Let me show you exactly how it would play out... :D
"I haven't seen any updates on the website! Boo hoo! Why aren't you living up to my standards?! YOU SHOULD ALL QUIT BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE ME ARE TIRED OF YOU NOT LIVING UP TO OUR STANDARDS!!"
Several months later...
"Oooooooo! It's finally done!" ;D *clicks download* "Wut?! This download is taking too long!!" *posts on forum* "YOU GUYS SUCK AT LIFE!! THIS FILE IS TOO BIG FOR ME TO DOWNLOAD!! THIS IS GOING TO TAKE HOURS!! YOU SHOULD HAVE MADE THE FILE SMALLER!! I HAVE BETTER STUFF TO DO WITH MY TIME!! GOOD BYE FOREVER!! YOU HAVE LOST SEVERAL SUPPORTERS BECAUSE OF THIS!!" *continues downloading anyway*
Several hours later...
"Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! IT'S DONE DOWNLOADING!!" *clicks install* *whistles happily* ;D "Wait...WUT?!" :o "'You are not a supporter of... ...Exploding in 10...? Huh?! CRAP!!" *tries to click cancel* :o "I can't stop it! NOOOOOO!!!" :'(
:suffer: :suffer: :suffer: :suffer: :suffer: <- Me during that time
Well...one can dream of a perfect world like that, can't they?
I appreciate all the time you guys are putting into this. You guys don't have to work on any of this at all. I am sure if you guys were not working on it, you would say so. Dishonest people don't get this far in a non-profit game. Please don't let these :furious: uh...disgruntled people weigh your motivation down. What they fail miserably to realize is that you are not our slaves, lol. (or are you? :suffer: )
I don't visit this forum often anyway. I'm just going to be happy when I get that newsletter e-mail.
Anyway, thank you all for your time. It is greatly appreciated. I want to see this genre of adventure games make a come back.

rofl I like the way you think Tage7 :sneaky: lol
I'd love to see that happen. XD
That's awesome! Would be cool if we could do that XD Or, at least something like it. We could freak them out with the countdown...but then not let anything happen when the countdown finishes XD
LOL! XD
It's great to know that there are fans out there like Tage7 who continue to support us throughout the entire development of the game. :)
Heheh... reminds me of the joke program I made that pretends to "format" your computer... ;)
XD ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD
That is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I soooooo wish that you guys could do it!
I believe only the true Kings Quest Fans havn't dished out insults on the forums because they know how great of a game it is an can wait as long as it takes.
