As it's soon to be SAM's tenth birthday, would anyone be interested in a
special SAM lapel badge/tie or something similar?

Sexist or what? What would I want with a tie?

(cough) Dunno if this still applies these days, but back when I was a lad
in High School, the girls managed to put their ties to some
rather...*imaginitive* uses.

(glazed look spread across face) Hmm

Re: I am ten... Lapel badges and bras, etc.

Apologies to Maria if I appeared sexist.

I wouldn't object to badges, ties, bras or panties, as long as we can chose
which option to go for, according to our preferences.

(the mind boggles!)

I'm glad to hear that the games disk features the 'cheat' version of Dyzonium.
A cheque will be sent before too long (Don't worry, I remember how to
invoke the cheat routine!)

Besides buying the pre-release copy of Dyzonium, I also bought Astroball. Both
are cracking good games (as Wallace might say) and Balor Knight deserves
credit for writing such good games for SAM. If you've never tried them, shame
on you. Make amends and buy the new games disk. It'd be worth it for those two
games alone, and the added incentive of a SAM version of Defenders is too good
to resist.

Can't imagine me wearing a lapel badge somehow - a SAM Coupe T-shirt
maybe! Hmm, black with the SAM logo in the middle and we could make up
some slogan for underneath the logo. On the back we could have a list of
all our favourite software/SAM bods or something. Nice.

Or copies of their signatures

PS. Have we actually established the exact birthday? Somewhere around
November this year, isn't it?

Not bad tactics that, although going backwards doesnt help much if you
reverse into a structure or something then have to go forward through
a crowd of enemy cybercraft especially when you beyond the puny
drones...!

Yes.. That is a downfall. But, that's what the scanner is
for! :) It's easy for the puny ones.


Yeap! The scanner does come in handy.

What is the best tactic, then? Against the other ones? Damn,
I can't even remember what the other ones where like.


The best tactic? Thats a hard question! Depends on
how you customise the cybercraft really...

On 2nd thoughts perhaps a T-shirt would be better than underwear - working
off the basis that you're less likely to get arrested for showing someone
your t-shirt in the street...

Very impressed to hear about the E-Tracker to Midi program...

What's the chance of doing the oppisite? Taking the raw Midi data and
creating a Pro/E-Tracker file from it?

I'm not too sure if Balor changed the cheat invocation in the final release!!
Knowing
how his mind works he probably did  ;-)

Besides buying the pre-release copy of Dyzonium, I also bought Astroball. Both
are cracking good games (as Wallace might say) and Balor Knight deserves
credit for writing such good games for SAM.

Balor received due credit (but sadly hardly any money!!) for Astroball as this
was
the game that impressed Probe Software to give him a job!!!  He's currently
working
for them writing PC games now, the latest being a full reflective 3D
texture-mapped
beast to be called 'Revolt'...  It's a car racing game with a difference and it
looks
amazing!!!  So, Balor owes the humble SAM a small debt of gratitude, as it's
this very
machine that elevated him from 'Life on the Dole' to where he is now!!!  ;-)

That sounds more interesting to me too - so I can't be sexist, right?

Not with Nev wearing them, mind...
