In the vein of 'pretty decent', the story is now pretty much done. It needs revising so it's not going to be appearing anywhere in the next few moments. :dev11: And maybe I shouldn't hold it back just to fool around with HTML. How about it, Met? What...  [Read More]

I wonder if it really counts as fan fiction. After all, I'm not using characters and situations from the original; only the environment. And even then, the only specific locations being revisited are the Bureau of Acquisitions building and the Limbo...  [Read More]

It means bread of the dead, not treat. Hell, Manny even translates it in the game. Muertos comes from the same Latin word that gives English such words as mortician amd mortal....  [Read More]

I'm around. Just busy. Anyway, I don't there there are that many language jokes in GF. (Not that I understand Spanish, either.) But I think that Toto Santos is similar to the Spanish term for All Saints' Day. Copal might have something to do with hol...  [Read More]

Just as well, cutting Stan. Sure, Monkey Island anything without Stan is a little weird, but then I wasn't to sure about that scene anyway. But that's a big chunk of the episode gone. Any chance of flinging the revision my way sometime so I can tear...  [Read More]

I have to say I was really impressed by Carl. It's just too bad 8 didn't tell me just how he imagined him or I wouldn't have spent so much time trying to butcher his lines when I got the draft script. :p But that aside...when do I get to see part thr...  [Read More]
