Finally.

Oh, btw, Sapphire Tears is regaining hype slowly due to a new demo being posted on the Reflect Forums. About 12-14 active players.

Finally? - Its less than a month since the last issue, well I hope that you enjoy the issue itself.

Huh. Can you believe I didn't actually have a PDF viewer installed?

Anyway, jotting down random impressions as we go.

- dmitko actually thinks people would PAY for the Pure Action CTF source code? HahahahahAHAHAHAHAHAH.

- Beginner's Guide to the GMC is pointless. Everyone knows beginners can't read.

- I've never had coffee.

- Hey look, Sapphire Tears. =D

- Dear god that thegamecreators ad is MASSIVE.

- This language thing seems SO useless…

- There goes the 4th wall.

- The end. Not bad.

I don't know how much I'm allowed to say, but no, it's not dead.

Gamez, if a freelance article includes over 999 words, the author gets a free domain for a year?

gamez93 16 years, 4 months ago

@Acid - Were moving hosts

@basil - If thats what it says
