Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Desiree, I have wanted to make Candy Land. I just do not remember the board or exactly how the game goes like I did with Master Mind, Chutes and Ladders, Skunk, Yahtzee etc. I did have Life and Monopoly when I became totally blind. A couple read me the squares on the board, the cards etc so that I could write the games and I gave the games to them for their kids. Guess I should buy Candy Land and write the game. Working on another adult game right now though.

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Dark, Interesting. I just finished reading the web page you linked to below and besides a very informative read I now understand why when Scholastic reprinted the Harry Potter books for the U.S. market they performed extensive rewriting of the actual text. While the British and Americans might both speak English the fact of the matter is there is far more differences between Britain and America than just language. There are plenty of social and cultural issues to consider here. While most Americans probably wouldn't have a problem of using post instead of mail there are British terms that would be slightly offensive to Americans. Off the top of my head I'll take the issue of using the toilet. Where I live we tend to indirectly say what we mean by saying we have to go to the bathroom, we want to use the restroom, or as my Grandma would say the lady's room. If someone were more direct and saying they have to use the toilet many would find that a bit crude and uncouth. My grandma would no sooner have said use the toilet than she would have said she needed to take a crap or pee because it would have been too direct and uncouth. Of course, this is changing as younger Americans feel more comfortable of saying what they mean. That said, I found it interesting that the article you posted states that in Britain they don't have the fundamentalist Christian groups like we have in the U.S. The author went as far to say that most British people would feel more comfortable about talking about their sex life than their religion. I found it a bit funny he stated most British people find our brand of fundamentalist Christianity insincere or down right nuts. Here in the U.S. that's totally the opposite in places like the Bible Belt and running into someone with a fundamentalist point of view is pretty common. I should know since I'm married to one. :D Anyway, getting back to the topic at hand, I do see the problem here of Candy Land Vs. something else. To begin with a Gingerbread Cookie in the U.S. is a small crunchy cookie in the shape of a gingerbread man. What you chaps would call a biscuit. From what I've managed to read is that Candy Canes simply do not exist in Britain and seems to be an American sweet. A Sour Patch is a round gummy sweet that is very sweet and very sour at the same time. They tend to be very sticky when you lick them so I guess that's why landing on one causes you to lose a turn in the game. Bottom line, I think what we'd have to do if we created a Candy Land game is have a custom version for the U.K. From what I gather your concepts of sweets is fairly different from ours with sweets we don't have here, and sweets we have here aren't popular over there. Its no wonder certain things like Candy Cane Forests don't make sense to you because you don't have them. Then again, there are a lot of things about British lifestyle and American life style that are so different its like stepping into the Twilight Zone or something. I remember reading about British chocolate, how its made, and it sounds completely disgusting to me. Of course, I've never tried it so can't comment from experience, but its definitely different from what I'd be use to as an American. Same goes for the British concept of hot chocolate. The author who wrote that article you sent stated that most British people don't drink hot chocolate with marshmallows in it. To be honest I find that hard to believe because almost every American I know would kill you if you left the marshmallows out of their hot chocolate. Its as though we aren't living in too separate countries but on two different planets in cases like that. Lol! Cheers! On 9/6/12, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi Tom. Well, I'm not sure if the exact game was ever markited over here under that name, though I do remember playing ones with similar rules as a child. For example, me being an avid Thomas the tank engine enthusiast, my mum bought, and indeed brailled a game called thomas the Tank engine all changed, which worked exactly the same way with drawing cards and advancing several spaces or going backwards, but with stations on the board instead of locations like the candy forest etc, and the game's objective was to reach the engine shed in the middle of the board. The unique rule however that I think was specific to that game was occasionally you'd pick up a card saying all change and get to pick a player to swap positions with on the board. As regards the hole candy thing, well it depends upon the type really. I have no idea for instance what sour patches are, unless they're what in England are called wine gums or jellies. Gingerbread is very common over here though and nearly all bakers sell it, but usually in the form of ginger bread men or just gingerbread biscuits, sinse over here biscuits refers mostly to anything like shortbread, gingerbread, rich tea, digestives etc, and the term cookies is only used of very soft, often large

Re: [Audyssey] Looking for textadventures for beginners
hi Dark, Yes, I see that. I've been doing some reading of Spanish history and while I knew who Isabella and Philip were I really had no idea of the history leading up to the exploration of the Americas. I didn't know, for example, that Philip and Isabella married to unite the two most powerful Catholic kingdoms in order to unite Spain under one crown and that the Muslims were finally defeated in 1492. Of course, that was the same year Columbus set sail. I had no idea how much power and influence Spain had in Europe during the 1500's because all American history teachers wanted to discuss is what was happening in the western hemisphere. Now, I'm happily filling in the gaps in my knowledge and realizing exactly how little detail was spent on the big picture so to speak. For example, if we talk about the U.S. War of 1812 that's all American history will talk about. They totally ignore the fact that one reason Britain didn't send all the red coats in to smash us flat is they were primarily involved in the Napoleonic Wars. Britain was fighting two wars at the same time, and we were the lesser of two evils. That naturally worked to our advantage because while Britain was concentrating on the French we were free to give you a thrashing in our own backyard. As poorly as the war started off we almost got smashed flat anyway and the history books like to ignore those facts. Same goes for Spain in the 1400's and 1500's. American historians seem not to care why the Spanish were conquering Central and South America but merely the fact that they did so. Its appalling. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Tom. interesting, I actually didn't know in America use the toilet would be considdered a vulgar expression. There are of course less polite ways of referring to the toilet, such as the bog, the crapper, the shithole, or in scotland the cludgy, but there is nothing at all wrong with toilet at all, and if you did! refer to it as say the lady's or the gents (short for gentlemen's sinse the term mens room never existed here either), most people would assume you were being overly dainty or trying to be specifically upper class. Interestingly enough though, even in the British editions of harry potter, Jk rowling still occasionally refers to the bathroom though she also uses loo or toilet as well. I'm not sure if this was either a picked up Americanism on her part, or because like a lot of large institutions she imagined hogwarts having combined toilet and bathroom facilities, though she never mentions there being a bath in moaning murtle's toilet or there being a toilet in the prefect's bathroom so on this I'm not sure. As to the hole subject of sweets, I've seen! candy canes in American programs, but what they taste like or are composed of I have no idea. I suspect we do have soemthing similar to the sour patches you mention, sinse we do have a lot of what we'd call jellies, such as wine gums, harribo etc, some of which can be pretty sour and chewy, though they wouldn't really be distinguished with a universal name like sour patches. Chocolate I can give you a hole discourse on sinse like coffee it's something I''m a little serious about. I have no idea what Us chocolate is like at all or what the differences are precisely, but I do know a lot of Uk chocolate has far too little coco, --- especially those manufactured mars, neslay, which is precisely why I myself only tend to buy chocolate that has a whacking great coco percentage and is usually german or swiss and bought from specialist shops. I do know a lot of things in the Us contain a lot more corn syrup, including things like bread and tomatoe ketchup, which thus makes them often taste quite sweet to people who are used to the British versions, indeed a friend of mine who frequently goes to the states for his job says this drives him absolutely up the wall, buying a savory sandwich and finding it tastes to him like it's been made with slices of cake rather than bread. As to religion, well over here fundamentalism is much more the exception than the rule and you would be thought of as rather nuts if you had such beliefs, and probably avoided. When I was attending church each week, the idea of the vicar shouting at the congrigation, going on a wrant about hell and demons or anything like that would be quite unthinkable, indeed outside of bible readings I only ever remember hell being mentioned as separation from god, or as a state of mind, and demons never mentioned at all. likewise, the idea of someone actually condemning! others in a religious service, though it might happen with some fundamentalist fringe groups would be very much frowned upon over here. i think the statement about people not talking about religion is slightly incorrect, or may be on the part of bias from the author, though then again as a philosophy student I tend to find I get into discussions with people about religion anyway. I will say though that it's far less likely in such discussions to run into someone who won't be to a degree accepting, though of course it does happen. Just as in many parts of the world the British are thought of as up tite, obsessed with tradition and incapable of showing emotion, over here a common sterriotype about americans is that Americans are loud, over emotional and do things to excess. of course, this is a sterriotype and so not true of any individual american, but just like some other sterriotypical beliefs about nations, for instance that germans are very good at organizing or that Japanese are very polite, there may be a grane of truth in such beliefs as they apply to the over all spirit of a culture, just as it is true that displays of emotion, or indeed affection are still slightly discouraged in Britain, indeed when I studdied sartre's theory of emotions which stated that inner states of emotions were entirely characterized and subordinated to the outward actions of the body, and of society's interactions with the body, the lecturer noted that Sartre was of course french, where emotions were much more physically expressed, and the idea of someone say feeling intensive joy or disgust but not reacting physically would not be one that would occur to Sartre. Before however this gets too far into a social and existential analysis I'd better stop as that deffinately! goes beyond the bounds of what should be on the list, indeed perhaps we should discuss this privately off list.

As I believe I said at the time, space muds without pvp and with actual exploring seem to not exist at all, so I'd love to see if you can change the situation. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Dark, Well, as for Candy Canes they are basically long sticks of peppermint candy made into the shape of a walking cane or a capital J if you prefer. As I understand it the guy who originally created this sweet was a Christian and he wanted to make a Christmas Candy for children that reminded them of the meaning of Christmas. So he took peppermint candy molded it into the shape of a capital J and added white and red stripes. The white stood for purity and the red stripes stood for the blood of Jesus. Initially they didn't take off in America, but some candy company decided to buy the idea and renamed them Candy Canes. that's why every Christmas Santa Claus hands them out to children although the religious intent or meaning of the candy has long been lost on most Americans. They just associate Candy Canes with Santa. :D The lack of cocoa is exactly what I meant about British chocolate sounding awful. Most American chocolates have a high amount of cocoa in them. A lot of them are based more or less on Swiss chocolates and like pretty much everything else when people from Europe immigrated to the U.S. they brought their recipes and favorite foods with them. Certain groups such as the Amish actually still make cheese, chocolates, and other foods just like they did a hundred years ago which preserves the flavor and taste. Its for that reason I love to buy chocolates from the Amish because they tend to be richer and have a higher cocoa content then the name brand chocolates. Anyway, if you wish to discuss anything regarding social differences etc we definitely should take it off list. This is drifting way off topic, and as much as I'd love a public debate on this Auddyssey just isn't that kind of forum. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Dark, Well, in Candy Land there really aren't that many squares besides the Molasses Pits and/or Sticky Patches that have any real functionality in the game. The Candy Cane Forest, for example, is just a place in Candy Land that you can move forward or backward to when that card is drawn. Same for the Gingerbread House and the lollipops. They are more or less background scenery and have no real functionality as far as game mechanics goes. Of course, if you are one or two squares away from the Candy Castle, at the end of the board, and get a Gingerbread House card that can set you back clear to the beginning of the board where the Gingerbread House is.

The Candy Cane Forest, for example, is just a place in Candy Land that you can move forward or backward to when that card is drawn. Same for the Gingerbread House and the lollipops. They are more or less background scenery and have no real functionality as far as game mechanics goes. Of course, if you are one or two squares away from the Candy Castle, at the end of the board, and get a Gingerbread House card that can set you back clear to the beginning of the board where the Gingerbread House is.

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Dark, Right. All of that is pretty flexible as far as I am concerned. If I wanted to make an exact copy of the game I certainly can but I see no problem with making custom boards to suit other nationalities given there are so many different candies or sweets out there. That said, the game is so basic I could create any number of simple board games using the same mechanics and game play. For example, imagine taking the classic Candy Land and giving it a Halloween type theme. Instead of the Candy Cane Forest you might have the Haunted Forest. Instead of a Gingerbread House we could have the Zombie Graveyard. Instead of a Sticky Patch we could have a Pumkin Patch. Instead of the Candy Castle we have Dracula's Castle. Basically, instead of Candy Land we get something like Monster Land. Lol! Cheers! On 9/7/12, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi tom. Fair enough. If the squares you mention are the only ones in the game, then only some would need changing sinse we have gingerbread and lolly pops over here too, --- -though here molasus is purely a cooking ingredient and not really something that would be considdered as generally a sweet for children, though some sweets may contain it, like honey.

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Dark, Well, in this case hard candy is just that. Things like Jolly Ranchers, Jaw Breakers, some lollipops, and so on are a very hard candy that could break a tooth if you bite them. You suck them until they are soft and then eat them or just suck them until they completely melt in your mouth. So by hard candy they really mean hard candy. :D Soft candy are things like gummy worms, gummy bears, sour patches, and star burst which are very soft and chewy. Interesting enough though there are some candies like Lifesavers that come in a hard candy form or as soft candy. The soft Lifesavers are called Gummy Savers and, I personally think they taste better than the original hard candy Lifesavers. Just thinking of Lifesavers makes me want to go out an buy a couple of packs of mixed berry or wild berry savers. Lol!

Re: [Audyssey] Jim Kitchen's football error help
Hi Dean, Strange. I'm running Jim's NFL on a Toshiba with Windows 7 64-bit and have never experienced that bug. I wonder if a file must have gotten misplaced or something as I can confirm that shouldn't be happening on a Windows 7 machine. I wonder if we can figure out how many people are having this problem and then can compare notes?

Re: [Audyssey] blindgameware
Hi Tom. that is an interesting idea, indeed while the game candy land as I said doesn't exist over here as far as I know, there are plenty of similar ones. I mentioned the thomas the tank engine themed game I used to have when i was little. I've also seen and played a game based on Charley and the chocolate factory (the book, rather than the tim berton film). This used dice rather than cards, but had the same basic snakes and ladders type of theme, ie, get to the end as soon as possible. what was fun that instead of ladders you got things like helped out Mr. wonker or you drink fizzy lifting drinks and puff up to a new stage and instead of snakes you got you tried to drink from the chocolate river and were sucked down a pipe just like augustus gloop in the book or film.
