lol forrest. "We the players of Vendetta Online swear by this post that we shall do all in our power to bring Vendetta-ish style DOOM upon all major advertising locations!"

Standing by for action, Incarnate sir!

@sarahanne:
I agree with you. We should definately save advertising till VO has lasting power on n00bs. I just wanted to give the game my anual little bump, considering that the Apple website was where I heard about it...

...and I think we need more mes in the game! Just kidding.

No, I just wanted to get it on the front page where a couple of people might look at it and try it out. Inc's right, that was stupid. I'll won't do any more VO advertising until I get the go-ahead.

Your update propogated out to a number of other mac news sites, it seems. Our bandwidth graphs now have a dramatic mountain.

Atleast he isnt firing anyone :P

You're fired, Blacklight.

Ahhh, now here's a great quote to take out of context: "When I first married Ray I was like Calder."

Thats impossible, because I fired you!
And being flooded in with newbies?!? hmm.....

Mentor the noobs! Quit firing each other!

/me cracks whip (and no, not like that)

@Andy- is there anything the devs can do to help lessen the confusion for prospective players who are linked to the downloader instead of the account page?

@Forrest- Yodaofborg calls me a DemiDev :)

sarah: Sure. We can make an account signup form inside the game itself. As it is now, when you're confronted with the login screen, there's a "help" button which points out that you need to visit this site to get an account.

I'm sorry for posting that at all, but I'm REALLY sorry I posted the wrong link. I must have copied the wrong URL, and then not copied the signup URL. Glad you can somewhat fix it, Andy.

Once again, I'm really sorry everyone...

/me gives Calder an "It is okay we don't want you dead....yet" cookie
May 05, 2006 Person link
You're just giving that to me so that I'll get used to eating cookies, and when you fee me a poisoned "It's okay we want you dead NOW" cookie, I'll swallow it without a second thought! :D

happypenguin.org - yoda? Should I put you on it?

Hmmm, no, cos theres already someone posting updates, soooo, I guess they will have read this, felt a bit silly, and will do it then (I didnt post the update, I just posted a comment, saying *I have played for years, and thats why I like it* or some such). I would however like them to fess up. :P

I personally have quite a wide net audience on a few of the websites that I currently *maintain* (ok, not as wide as happypenguin, or linuxgames, but still) and as soon as I see the devs themselfs ready for linkage, they get a neat banner on every one of them :)

FWIW I downloaded the game and signed up for service BECAUSE of the reviews on macupdate.com.

Forrest inspired me to give it a shot. So if nothing else, my subscription is probably due to him.
