Hi Charles, Thanks to me being a very honest person you wouldn't even have known what the poll results were if I hadn't published them on the list. If I was unscrupulous, less honest, I would announced a totally different out come and you wouldn't have known the difference. As it is I was being honest about the results. It is not that the poll results are unimportant or I don't care what you all think. It is about I have to spend six months, a year, whatever of my life making a game I don't want to create. A game I have lost all interest in, and in all likelyhood never play again after it is finished. Let's put this in perspective. Most of the time I program for fun. I do it as relaxation, for entertainment value, and when it loses that entertainment value what is it? It is called work. It is a well known fact i write these games in my free or spare time. What you are commiting me to is not working on a job, but using all of my free or spare time to deliver something for someone elses enjoyment. Not my own. Now, in return for this game I want you and the rest of the community to use every minute of your family or free time doing home work, house work, tending to other things. You aren't alloud to watch as much TV, read as many books, because you have to do a project for everyone else that gives you absolutely no satisfaction or enjoyment. See how long you last.
