All the better reason to work on it, eh? (ornery groin, uh, grin. See what
a difference a letter can make/)

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I know. Although, it would help if you spell the item correctly.
I'm not trying to pick on you, but I couldn't help but see you spelled
faucet forset. That would definitely be a cause for a game not to respond
if
you spell things incorrectly like that. This isn't the first time I've
seen
incorrect spellings like that in your e-mails, and as you probably know
interactive fiction really does require decent spelling to work.
Anyway, as someone else suggested it was probably something simple like
"get
water"
which fits with a lot of interactive fiction games I've played.
Usually, not all the time, but usually after you play them a while there
is
a certain logic everyone follows most of the time.

Hi tom.
That is true, though generally as Americans write a lot of if I do
tend to use American words for things reasonably often, ---- I did try
put cup under forset, but got "I don't know the word put" then tried
fill cup and got "there is nothing to fill it with"
While I agree on using different commands and beta testingl, the
reason I became frustrated with If was that there was far too much of
this sort of thing, and sinse I hate leaving stories in the middle,
there was nothing frustrate me more than a puzle where every solution
i tried failed to advance the plot, especially when the answer is
simply a matter of different command or item.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
