Re: [Audyssey] audio games.net forum wasRe: Optional accessiblegamesmirror?
To be honest I prefer forums rather than mail based lists. If all the lists I belong to were forums then it would take away a good percentage of the email clutter. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of AudioGames.net Sent: 07 May 2008 22:38 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] audio games.net forum wasRe: Optional accessiblegamesmirror? Hi Aiden, A mailing list allows members to post messages which are broadcast to all of the other mailing list members via email. The application you use for this is your email application. An Internet forum (also frequently known as message board) is an application on a website which allows people to post messages that can be seen by either members of the forum (people who registered with the forum) or visitors - this depends on the forum settings. The forum we use at AudioGames.net is, as far as we know, fully accessible. It has been in use by visually impaired users for several years now and never have received any accessibility complaints. Most fora on the internet are more or less accessible because they're primarily text-based. However, many fora allow people to post inaccessible content, such as images without alt-attributes (=text descriptions of the image) or multimedia without an accessible alternative). This doesn't make the forum itsself inaccessible, but parts of the posts can be inaccessible. For our forum we wrote a script to check whether or not the poster has added an alt-attribute, and if not he will receive a notification of this in text under his image. For multimedia we don't have such a solution yet. Fortunately, about 99.9% of all the posts on the AudioGames.net forum are text so no worries ;) Here it is: http://forum.audiogames.net/ Greets, Richard - Original Message - From: aiden gardiner [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 9:56 PM Subject: [Audyssey] audio games.net forum wasRe: Optional accessible gamesmirror? hi dark, Just a quick question.

Hi Tom. with reguards to audiogames.net, it is actually being updated at the moment, and will hopefully be both completely up to date and able to keep up with community changes soon. but obviously sinse it's not been updated for a while there's a fair amount of work to be done. Hopefully in a few weeks there should be pages for most games with download links and descriptions and such, - but it is quite a task stil. Just to clarrify, the download links on the game pages are mostly links to download the files from the appropriate sites, and like everything else they are being updated. there are plans in the works I believe to host old games like the Pb stuff, Simon's games from http://www.simonsgames.com/news.php and some others, obtaining old versions of abandoned games where possible as well. About the mirror, I think it's a good idea if you've got the space, sinse A, I'm not sure when things on audiogames.ent will be running smoothly, and you can never be too careful with these things, and as munawar said mirrors could be great for devs and others amd file hosting (blind cool tech stil! haven't posted my long Smugglers 3 review, and I'd love to hoast it somewhere), not to mention quicker downloads. Also, if you've got perminant web space, perhaps you could considder hosting the superdeakout scoreboards, and the word list databases for search party and chain link, so that people will stil be able to submit scores and make and share new word chains etc, of course this is assuming that changing the program to point to Usa games rather than DanZ games wouldn't be too much trouble (I was assuming you could just cp the address, but I'm not sure).

Re: [Audyssey] STFC 2.
Actually I liked ds9, because ok yes it was based on a war theme by the end of it, still, even in the most peaceful places there is still going to be the threat of war from somewhere. Even if earth never actually felt the apressions of war, someone has to. There will always be someone who wants what you have or is afraid enough of you to try and get rid of you 1 way or other. The founders fear of solids because of how they were treated by the solids in their part of space, etc etc there's a lot of things you could take from ds9. personally I think it was very well written. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: 17 April 2008 01:05 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] STFC 2. Hi Dark, Well, technically both the Enterprise, NCC-1701-E, and the Defiant were created for more military type adventures. This is in large part do to the drastic changes in story line between Star Trek Next Generation and Deep Space 9. The Star Trek producers gave Star Trek a more violent and war-like story line which nearly killed Star Trek for most long-time viewers. The story focussed less on space exploration and more about the Dominion War and conflicts in the galaxy. With the introduction of Star Trek Voyager the producers realized long-time Trek fans, such as myself, enjoyed deep space exploration more than war, and Voyager saved what was good about classic Star Trek by focusing the entire series on deep space exploration and moroal issues that applies to us today. With the original Star Trek series, released in the 60's, the concepts behind the stories are definitely a product of the times. Most people were worried about the war in Vietnam, and the Star Trek producers dreamed of a brighter happier future for mankind. One where mankind reaches for peace, love, and searched for knowledge. While there were certainly military conflicts in the original series such as the Tholian Web, the Dooms Day Machine, and battles with the Romulans, etc most of the stories were about time travel and exploration. The City On the Edge Of Forever, where Kirk, Spock, and McCoy travel back to 1930's America, tries to show us that we will have to suffer much before we can learn to live peacefully as one race. Other shows like Space Seed, where the Enterprise rescues a lost shuttle and discovers it is full of genetically engineered outlaws from 21st century Earth, shows what greed, hate, and the desire for power will do to mankind if it is not curved. While the shows were created with a Sci-fi bent there are some deep messages behind the stories. When Star Trek Next Generation was released in the late 1980's it tried to carry on moral lessons as well as an exploration/Sci-fi theme. Sure there are some really cool war-like battles such as the fight against the Borg at the Battle of Wolf-359, the Klingon civil war, etc. However, like the classic Star Trek the Next Generation series was really about people and their personal problems with a Sci-Fi theme. In the show Sin's Of The Father they introduce Warf's x-wife, her desire to reunite with Warf, their unrequited love for each other, and then in an act of greed and hate Duras murders her before Warf and his x can come to a resolution of their personal problems. In a lot of TNG shows they get into deep moral and theological debates about Data. Even though he is an android is he a new type of life form, should he have all the rights as a human being, at what point does machines become like humans, Data's desire to be human, Data's desire for a family of his own, etc. One of the deepest and saddest lessons TNG offers is in Star Trek 10. I find it interesting that Data, aanandroid, he who wanted to be human, was able to be most human of all at the end of his life. He was able to show true heroism and self-sacrifice that is legendary. Knowing Picard was going to be killed Data rescued Picard, and died in Picard's place. There is a saying that there is no greater love than this than lay down your life for a friend. If so it is the mark of a true hero, and even though these are only made up characters we should not take such heroes in real life for granted. I can clearly remember sitting at the theater when Star Trek 10 was still playing at the movies, and my momentary shock, sorrow, and emotional attachment to that seen. I really thought Deanna Troi's performence carried the moment really well. The grief stricken look she gives as she stairs out into space in an instant of shock and grief knowing one of her life-long friends was gone. That is not the first time the STNG series had been able to get an emotional responce out of its audience. I can remember beeing around 10 or 11 years old when the TNG show, Skin of Evil, was first broadcast on TV. At first the show seamed like an ordinary weekly epasode. Troi's shuttle crashes, the Enterprise shows up to rescue her, but

Re: [Audyssey] My responce to Michael Feir.
Hi Thomas, Well I've read some of this whole debate with quite a bit of dismay. Not on your part you're doing no more or less than what you can do. It was only a matter of time before someone clicked on to people making clones of games. It was never a question of whether it would happen it was always a question of when. I'm not saying whether it's right or wrong, I'm purely saying that it was a matter of time. As for the side scroler vs the fps type games, well you'll never have a clear winner there because you'll always get those who favour 1 or other. And this is the problem people ill always have. Personally I haven't played a good side scroler for years and would enjoy seeing what you come up with. So I will weight and see what you come up with before I pass judgement. But I do have to say that I am rather dismayed at the immature responses that people have given out on this list of late. I mean come on guys if this was a mainstream gaming forum the majority of you would have been told to shut up or be banned. So think yourselves lucky that you're still on this list. I'm a member of http://www.egosoft.com forums and believe me if the sorts of language and stupid responses were used on there that I've seen here then trust me the mods would just ban the lot of you. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.
