What's a tartan one?? (OMG - majic1 is showing her stupidity once AGAIN!)

I was thinking of a wee Scottie dog, get it? Tartan?

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 2:46 am

Heck Majic....I thought she was talking about a plaid dog.

Come over and sit by me

A wee Scottie has a plaid coat, therefore.........

A tartan dog!

Doesn't matter, my M.A.D. half hour.

A plaid dog - YUP - That is DEFINITELY one I can deal with! I like them plaid mutts, ya know. Best darned dog I ever had - and that is the TRUTH!

So, tartan means plaid? I am sorry - I never knew this. Why do I have the feeling everyone else knows this, and my mom (if she were still alive), is saying, "what? were you born yesterday?"

Don't worry, this happens to me all the time.

Gotta go now, it will be daylight in a couple of hours and all the mouths will be open for food.

Nice to have some laughter for a change, thanks all.

Can I just say one thing please.

I am truly glad every one is happy now about all this and having a laugh at 2-3am in the morning

(nutters!) Davimad - tell John to stop snoring (or doing pop-offs!!!) and waking you up

I do know one person in all this who will not be so happy though - Malcy Baby

I wish I could post the pm's he sent me yesterday just so you could see how this has affected him

I am sure none of this was directly aimed at him, but he is convinced it was. Malc is so respected on this forum, for his great challenging levels, his wit, charm and sense of humour - but specifically for the help he gives to other people.

At the moment - he says he is never posting on this forum again! I, for one, would miss his him very much, and I am sure plenty of others would too

Anyone got any suggestions on how to rectify this silly mess?

Thanks - Lillie

I, for one, don't care who posts what to whom, in whatever form.

BUT..

Malc did seem a little quick off the mark to send help, often before the maker of the level had had a chance to see the cry for help. I know he wasn't doing this to be spiteful, he's not like that, he just likes to help.

Perhaps that is what has niggled some folks. Most of us visit the forum at least once a day, so perhaps leaving it long enough for the author to see it would be a good idea. Then if no help is forthcoming, anyone can jump in.

I also know that the levels don't belong to us, especially the official ones, but it is only decent to allow the author first go at helping. Perhaps it would be helpful if each of the authors of Secret Worlds levels would air their views on whether they want someone else to help on their levels, then we would all know where we stand.

On to a lighter note...

Maureen, I think majic needs some lessons in Scottish History and TARTAN!!!!

Popo & I were posting at the same time, so I am editing this a little - GOD - YES! I guess I need help! A PLAID DOG! HA HA HA HA HA (PS - I want one)

And Lillian: I believe it has been rectified if you read all the posts!! Malc wouldn't leave us - I already know that! Silly girl!

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:20 am

Maybe it would be a good idea if a list was posted on the Forum of who created which level in Secret Worlds. I know this was put up on the Testing Forum - but others would not have seen that.

The list would also provide some "cred" for the author (and rightly deserved "cred"). We all know how much work was put in to creating SW.

At the end of the day, the majority of people asking for help recently on the Forum are "newies", and probably couldn't give a hoot who created what, as long as they get help

Regular members have a right to think differently.

I honestly think Patrick's way (writing the hint in white) is a really good idea.

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:35 am

Good idea, Lillian!

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:44 am

I know which section(s) you did (one of my favourites), and other peoples' sections, but I honestly don't know each and every level creator.

If anyone already has a list - please post it (as long as all the other creators are happy with that, and of course Patrick). If not, you could all pm your individual levels to me and I will sort it out.

Thanks.

popo · Post by **popo** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 9:55 am

Well I only made 3 levels, Somewhere on the Edge of Wondertown, Ocean View Harbour and Through the Maze, but I did make quite a few models which are scattered throughout the game.

Hello ladles and jellyspoons,

I think (hope) when Malc reads through all this he will see it's not directed at him personally.

This week has shown me just what you folk are really like. When the chips are down, we all stick together.
I would hate Malc to stop posting, how else am I going to get my facial excercises????

This is the faces I make when trying to solve one of your levels Malc, very good for the facial muscles.

I do hope you will reply to this Malc, we have got through worse.

Let's all have some fun, I for one really need some. Anyone else?

If Bear and me can become like the terrible twins, anybody can do ANYTHING!

Hi all,

First of all, Malc - please please please don't leave. DKgiz and I would miss you too much

Secondly, I don't care about who posts/PMs solutions to which levels. Anybody is more than welcome to post hints on my WSW levels (In Wondertown: The Town Square & The Old Windmill, in The Plains: The lost cave & The River Delta, in Foggy Mountains: The Ice Cave, Kaboom! Cave, The Road is blocked & The Cannon Cave).

And again: PLEASE DON'T LEAVE MALC!!!

Mette

Please come back Malc.

We miss you.

We miss your levels.

We miss your input.
