Gorf

You mean brussel? 1014120[/snapback] Do brussel sprouts make you fart?? ..Al 1014124[/snapback] No no no, you have it all wrong.. Brussels sprouts are the best way to stop you farting at all.. try eating a whole bag of them. To prove it eat lots of baked beans with them too, the sprouts will kill of the fart gas in you insides... honest! (hehe I pitty anyone within a 4 mile radius... oh crap.. is this thing still on? <CLICK>) 1014132[/snapback] You may fool others with this one but i wont be standing down wind from you! (those are not tears from crying but from getting snoot full)

Huh? Weren't you just accusing Nova about being wrong, in regards to who owns the rights to this game? I am confused now. So, what is it? Bugs or rights? 1014078[/snapback] Mostly rights but a little of both, sadly.......As it stands I only have one third....of the rights that is. Or to put it more clearlym I only have only ONE third the necessary permission to publish it. Waiting On a response from Midway. 1014083[/snapback] Hopefully it will go well. If it does, will you be releasing the other two versions of Gorf you were planning? 1014091[/snapback] Well at this point, I may re-issue Classic, but Pluz and 3D are going to now be renamed and all references to Gorf removed. Both will be released in as original titles completely. We need Our own games anyway. The new Working titles are Earth God's Troopers....to replace Gorf Pluz and God's Earth Troopers 3D to replace Gorf 3D. Oh and some other models from some other works for Jaguar.....guess all you want...I'll show the models and you all can fantisize....

The TRUTH why Gorf has been discontinued, REGARDLESS of what you heard otherwise is simply this. I only have ONE THIRD the permission and until I get the rest of it, it is done. Maybe I should have you all bug the peepee out of Midway and Nutting till they copitulate. IM KIDDING!!!!! PLEASE DONT DO THAT OR I'll NEVER GET THERE PERMISSION The fact is, according to Jamie, If Midway cut the same deal they usually did back then with programmers, Dave Autting probably the ONLY one I need permission from but since she was not sure, I need to be. Look for the new title from 3D Stooges.....F.A.R.T F ully A rmed R obo T roopers ....this is a serious working title by the way....stay tuned.

Galaga bug????HMMMMM tell me more...tell me more!

Ok lets try one more time....Im calling a truce...lets drop this altogether...It;s done, its finished. Im on to other games for Jaguar...Lets celebrate our machine not fight over it...Im guilty....I appologize...Im moving on.....

If I were so one sided as you claim, I wouldn't have purchased a copy of your game. How many times are you going to repeat yourself out of curiosity? That's like the 30th time you've said that to me. Have you read NovaXpress and Megamanfan's responses to you in this thread, or are you only being a selective reader? 1014033[/snapback] Yeah I have read it and it seems nothing has changed. I buy many games, It does not mean I am not biased against the person who wrote it. That proves nothing to me....I know you think you post perfectly and politely but I was the one who recieved it and it was condesending. Trust me. 1014049[/snapback] I'D NEVER BUY A PRODUCT FROM SOMEONE I DO NOT LIKE. GO BACK THROUGH MY POST HISTORY TO SEE HOW I FEEL ABOUT CORPORATIONS AND WALMART IN PARTICULAR IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE ME. As I've said to you a million times, THE ONLY PERSON YOU ARE IN CONFLICT WITH IS YOURSELF. STOP TRYING TO CREATE CONFLICT WHERE THERE IS NONE!!! 1014052[/snapback] Now who's flying off the handle? Im not creating any conflict. I am simply pointing out that buying a game does not mean I....I.....I like the author. I am now CLEAR on your policies though and I do indeed appreciate your support of my product. it does not mean I wont have disagreement with you. I dont not Expect you to liek everything I do or say either. You'd have to be nuts if you did(agree with me all the time)... Please explain how this is starting a conflict? I appologize if you took this the wrong way...Let's relax all of us...ok? Peace? Please? My heart is broken enough of losing Gorf.

What makes you think I only PMmed you? I spoke to 8 other people in that thread privately telling them to cool it, FYI. 1014050[/snapback] You'd never know as they did NOT cool it.

You obviously had too much of the "Thunderbird" kool-aid. I should start selling tinfoil hats (spare me with your JC Penny jokes). 1014029[/snapback] Ok Sku_u tell me I m the one starting this. Spare me with your fight starting posts against people who cant be here to answer you.

Oh and just let me say this...If I did unfairly attack or get on some one I appologize. If you read what is left of the thread"Gorf For Sale" you will see I was there to be helpful for a GOOD portion of the thread at first. I made a joke about Nebraska and Mega Man sent me a what I took as a condesending PM(like SKU_U did) and made it sound like I was the only one being unreasonable. Go back and read them and try to see them from MY point of view. I know..that does not matter..I came here with good intentions. I got two nimrods who had to be right even when they were wrong. I had my post deleted edited and used to complain to me about negativeness and all the others being negative never had there quotes used in that letter. That was Albert who did that. Weather it was intentional or not, it was bad timming...ALL of this mounted as my only goal here was to be supportive to those who purchased or want to purchaes gorf. I have worked VERY well in my life in Customer Service with hardly any trouble even from the worst of customers, but I have NEVER dealt with this. Even AFTER I tried to make a plea to peace I got an attitude post from YOU Sku...go back and read it. try to be me when you do. enough is enough....I wanted to make a game for the Jaguar community and unforunatley I DID get caught in the middle. I unfortunately did not handle it as best as I can, but then I was never treated like this before either. No excuse but I am only human From where I sat when all this started, came across as a pile on. anyway. I hope all of this just goes away. It's just not worth it. I have games to make.

Defending myself is NOT flying off the handle. I never ATTACKED ANYONE defending me. IF I had something hard to say to someone, I had good reason, At leat I felt so. Say what you want but your clearly being one sided.

....and is it any wonder why I want nothing to do with this place.... You know it is too bad that ONLY my negatives post get deleted and Nova X is Still allowed to call me a liar, unfairly. I DO own the only authorized version. I should have been clearer I guess. It is one third more authorized than the illegal intellectual properties on your hard drive Nova. It is a shame I cant even go back and look at what I said to see if I miss posted But I remember CLEARY disclosing it was only Jamie I spoke to on the matter. My posts were deleted so I cant tell. Now you come here and tell BS and I have no way to know exactly what I posted. I may very well have made it sound like I was fully in the right, but it was not my intention. The fact of the matter is the first e-mail I got from Jamie, she gave me the go ahead...not making ANY mention of others involved. I still have the e-mail somewhere..I will look for it. This recent round of post's by you are just laughable. Any lie you accuse me of was created out of your own desire to justify your illegal ROMS. I at least have, yes STILL HAVE, partial permission. I know I STILL have it because Jamie e-mailed me over the weekend confiming this and giving me the ENTIRE breakdown of what is going on. Show me your e-mail from ANYONE concerned with Gorf's right's. Oh that's right, I forgot. You dont have any. I stopped Gorf from sale because I am TRULY trying to be honest about this. Now let's see if you will erase your illegal ROMs images. You can call me a liar untruly, but clearly you are stealing. I own several ROM images on my hard drive...KEY WORD...OWN I own the machines. I also repair arcades and can get ANY ROM I want. But I inly burn new ROMS for whomever need it for their machine and that is that. Nova, my honest opinion about the whole ROM's issue is I think they should release all to the public after 10 years or dormancy. However Nova, that is not that case. I helped write parts of MAME and am working on some Jaguar stuff for MESS...specifically the ASTROCADE drivers. Us MAME authors wrote MAME to PRESERVE the classsic, not have everyone steal them. Truth is I can give you a real legal problem over owning those ROMS if you indeed do as I do have PARTIAL say in Gorf..I cant do anything with it now untill I clear up the other two thirds. I am only guessing this but, she must have thought Scott(JagMod) was e-mailing her( the first contact I made) , who she met at a gaming show where he was showing off an early proto-type of Jaguar Gorf Classic. I m assuming he had already spoken with her. I was NOT told the whole story...I am quite sure it was not her intentions and I am sure it is because she may have thought I was Scott..My guess..I dont know...Maybe Scott can shed some light. MY intentions were not to lie to anyone...I told you the truth according to what I knew . Thanks to you I am even more aware and have done that which is right. Gorf is done for until I hear from the rest. I hope this clears it up. Say what you want but you really are talking with half the story. Steven

Dear me oh my! You people get an idea in your head around here and no matter the facts, you just wont budge. ONE LAST TIME! I have permission from the author (go ask her yourself once and for all) unlike the rest you mention. I do not apperciate being lumped into that pile. It is not the truth even a little bit. Get over it already! I dont mind being asked ANYTHING until I am called a liar or a pirate or be accused of something as a result when none is true. And Linko, pirates are not cool, software or otherwise. They ruin lives one way or the other. I thought we were going to drop this? Well If any of you foks who want to ask serious non legal related questions about Gorf , come visit the JSII forums. I have had enough of this...

Why do you feel that way? I've been active in this scene for about 7 years now and have yet to "clash" with anyone outside of 1 or 2 misunderstandings that were 1011806[/snapback] Are'nt we supposed to be talking about Gorf in this thread? Why do yo continue to fan the fires. YOU tell others they need to grow up? Mirror my friend.

Complaining/debating is fine. Personal insults and name calling is not. If people have issues with each other, it's best left to PM. Everyone in the community doesn't need to know about it. 1011487[/snapback] I agree...I came here to answer questions anyone might have about Gorf. Gave them honest replies. Got compared to a pirate.....I hate when people PM me with whinning. I'd rather they just let it go. they dont. they want to be right, even if they are not...I know...I've been there...im by no means perfect. I do try to get along as much as I can. There will be clashes. IT 's part of life.

Hey I understand that you want to make peace. I still dont see the need to edit the thread. I do appreciate the hope of reasonable discussion of Gorf. I m always glad to answer any questions on Gorf. Look, if people complain, let them. It comes with the territory. Not to mention, I like a good debate. I have nothing to hide nor be ashamed about( well the bug is not at all cool but....). Let the good times roll I say! I don't hold grudges. I'm here to support the Jaguar community. I have just too much invested: money, heart, and soul to quit now! I say let folks say what they want. Im a big boy. I can handle it. IT does not mean I wont stand up for myself whe I feel unfairly treated. But I'll do my best to keep this a positive thread. Hey Im jus glad AA is supporting the jaguar and Gorf Classic. Gorf

It will be some time, but I think the cart will be cool. Again thanks for the supprt!

Thanks Fox! We will supprt you (Lord willing) as long as we are able. This stuff is fun, but it dont pay the bills.

As I wrote in the "apologies" thread... in case you didn't see my reply there.My wife told me that my Gorf arrived on Saturday, #30 of #50 thanks, I just wish that I could play it, but work keeps me away from wife and kids, and Gorf too!I really look forward to playing, and I'll for sure take a cartridge as well. It's just great to see the release, and all the fans you've made so happy. Ignore the people who only crawled out of the woodwork to nitpick or to start flames, clearly if they can't be bothered to be an active part of the community normally by posting (in general) then they have negative reasons for doing so now. I know lots of Jag fans who don't post on forums but are very happy to see your excellent release, and everybody should be impressed by your very positive response to finding a bug. You could so easily just have said that you would fix the bug and put that CD in with Gorf Pluz perhaps, making people buy another version to get the fix. I applaud you, you've done us all proud. Cheers, JustClaws. 1010610[/snapback] Thanks JC! I hope you get a few hours of Gorf in soon. Oh and thanks for your support!

I think any option of a replacement is way better than nothing. I was told from the website this is a port of a classic arcade game, but now I have one that is really close but has some bugs in it. If I ever made an arcade cabinet with this game in it, I wouldn't want it wigging out or adding score on the attract screen... because the arcade doesn't. I guess I just don't like things that are "fully operable (with bugs)" 1010193[/snapback] I'll refund you. Send it back. .......But before you do...... Are running Windows of anykind, are you going to make Mr. Gates replace it with a bug free version? Would he even offer? I know what ever I do as a make up is more than you would EVER get from any other software producer. Relax. You will get something. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the rest of it. Me sending you a disc in an envelope is more than you would get elsewhere else and I think more than fair enough. I may just release a mini game to all who bought the buggy version. There are now only `90 blues with that version. Im getting plenty of requests for these discs. In fact, send the package back and I'll put a new bug free disc in it. I am sure someone would more than love to buy your numbered version from me. The fact is, I owe you nothing...read the fine print on the manual. I am doing this out my respect for you fans. I will gain NOTHING from this .I will at my descretion make it up to you EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT OBLIGATED legally. This is what I have said fron the begining. You know the game just went up in value from a collectors point of view. Try to buy a gorf Arcade for under 50 dollars. Try to buy gorf this close on any other console at ANY price. I dont want to sound like a prick but I need to put this in perspective for you. Your post had a bit of a unfair crack at me after I have already said I would do something about it. Kick em when he's down? Remember, there are other orphaned systems out there that I think would show as a base a hell of a lot better appreciation for some one trying to support the system they love than the crap Im getting here....dont worry you'll get your fix.

I appreciate the understanding from everyone, I did'nt think anyone would fault me.However I aim to set an example or high quality and real concern for the Jag base. I dont know about the rest of you , but as a Jaguar fan and day one owner, I already feel plenty ripped of by Atari for abandoning and not supporting us.. The Jaguar is a long dead market but there is NO reason new games cant be made at a reasonable price. Gorf Classic CD 's price was my highest concern after the actual game content. I still aim to get you all (if intersted) a Gorf Classic Cart version for under 60 dollars. It will have a few added features im working on as we speak, like a REAL 90 degree rotated monitor mode to completely and totaly capture Gorf dead on. It will also feature flip mode for those who may want to build a cocktail version where the screen flips for each player. Oh and other goods that you'll just have to find out for yourself.

So, what does this mean, exactly, to those of us who just paid for a copy but haven't received them? How long do you anticipate this bug-hunt to take? I wanna play me some Gorf!!! Smeg 1008991[/snapback] Go ahead and play...niether is harmfull in anyway...im just bummed they are there. Your copy of Gorf will provide you with many hours of fun. There is no crash, in fact the game operates normally immediatley after it occurs. I know why it is happening and we are aleady in the process of fixing it. what happens is if you get killed on you LAST ship and your missile destroys the flagship right after you get hit, the game awards you a tons of ship(not supposed to) but the game blanks for a moment and you go back to demo mode(The game is over anyway). It only can happen on the FIRST flagship mission (mission #5) What the real arcade machine does if this happens is, if you have the extra ship dip(or option in the Jag version) it will kill your last ship, but award you a new one. and you go around again untill you get killed. Gorf arcade either awards you one extra ship after the first flagship destroyed ONLY, or not at all.
