If any of you prefer to be known under your
nick-names, then please notify the Group. If I have mis-spelt your name or
placed you under the wrong category or missed out known members altogether, then
I do apologise and ask that you get in contact either with myself or the Group
in General.
This is a WWW project. If you send any
Literature or letters to me by post (Snail Mail), please ensure they are in
Printed form. I Emphasise this to reduce the work necessary to convert paper
form into soft-form. This really only applies to members not on the
NET.
During the development of the project, I suggest that if
members wish to contact other members, they should do so whilst also sending the
mail to me, this will enable me to collect the information about how the project
is developing and send out any necessary information to you all.
It is also important to note that when the game
is finished, it will be released as a shareware game, available to all through
any members site and through CEO and OUM publications. This should remove any
problems with copyright infringements.
So now to the survey...
The members who were invited to suggest 5
possible conversions are me, DBUG, Lothlin, Dave Goodrum, Fabrice Frances,
Kamel, Matthew Coates, Alexios Chouchoulas, Rob Cook and Oguz Yamez (Have I
spelt that right?).
All the group has responded and I thank you all for replying
so soon.
The percentaged figure is the popularity in the
context of all the games put forward.
12.5% Lemmings
12.5% Worms
7.5% Zelda
5% Dungeon Master
5% Elite
2.5% Thrust,
Blip, Armalyte, Civilisation, Super Mario
2.5% Pharoahs

Bobble
2.5% Deflektor, Loderunner, Rambo,
R-Type
2.5%
Pitstop/Motorhead!,Yie ar Kung Fu
2.5% Football Game
Now, this is a bit awkward, we all seem to be pointing to
Lemmings and Worms!. I suggest that if any one of you wants to change his/her
mind, then get in touch before 12 Midnight of Tuesday 27th October, otherwise I
will make the final choice.
Also, if i misunderstood the
name of a game as meaning a genre of a game, then please enlighten me by
choosing a Popular title out of the list above.
I mention this beacuse of
some similarities betwean Kings Quest, Leasure suit Larry and a Graphic
Adventure Creator.
A Full table of the survey results is available in Word97
Format. If you would like to see it, then please contact me and i shall e-mail
it to you.
The next news-letter will go out hopefully on Wednesday,
releasing the final Verdict of the game to do for the Oric.
