| DavidW asks, "okay. Taleslinger, do you have something you'd like to say before we begin?" | ||
| Nitku says, "I suggest we start with You Were Here" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Nitku organized this year." | ||
| inky arrives, full of fun and funk. | DavidW says, "oh! okay" | |
| Jacqueline says (to nitku), "I was thinking that as well." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "So thanks to him for taking over." | ||
| DavidW says (to Nitku), "yes, thank you!" | ||
| Jacqueline asks (of Nitku), "Anything else, or would you like me to load that one up?" | ||
| Nitku asks, "Maybe the author would like to say a few words?" | ||
| JoshuaH says, "I don't have much to say at the moment. Just be aware that it's a very light thing." | ||
| JoshuaH says, "I also put in the text file of the release that there are some very slight spoilers in the game." | ||
| JoshuaH says, "342 of them." | ||
| says, "Interesting. It ... seemed a bit dark when I test loaded it onto Floyd. I'm looking forward to looking at it a bit more." | ||
| Taleslinger asks, "Spoilers for what?" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Tale), "How you'll die." | ||
| JoshuaH says, "I guess that would be spoiling... :)" | ||
| JoshuaH says, "It's very unlikely that anything will be ruined. Sorry for the confusion. Also, first thing I've released via Inform. I think that it. Hope you like it." | ||
| Jacqueline asks, "Lest we spoil the spoilers about the spoilers, should we just play it?" | ||
| DavidW says, "I think we should." | ||

Floyd ] Clearing Floyd | > Floyd | > THROW GRENADE AT TANK Floyd | Floyd | (first taking rocket grenade) Floyd | You throw the grenade at the tank! Unfotunately, it just bounces off Floyd | the armor harmlessly and explodes by the wayside. Luckily, there are Floyd | more grenades in the saddlebag. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW asks, "yeah, we tried throwing originally, remember?" | |

Floyd | Floyd | Paul goes northeast in the golf cart. Floyd | Floyd | The tank is chasing you! Floyd | Floyd | Manhorse rides very closely alongside the cart, in hot pursuit. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Floyd ] Flaming Inferno Floyd | > Floyd | > POINT LAUNCHER AT DUDE Floyd | Floyd | You aim the tube at the tank. This will either net you a Darwin Award Floyd | or be awesome,you think. Floyd | The grenade ignites. Floyd | The tube burns up in your hands faster than aluminum foil. There is a Floyd | loud hissing and a trail of smoke towards the tank. Floyd | For a second, nothing happens. With a loud, defeaning roar, the tank Floyd | explodes, pushing over the golf cart, throwing you off the horse and Floyd | into the woods. You crash against a tree and fall down. Around you, Floyd | the forest has quickly caught fire. Flames roars, and metal cracks in Floyd | the distance. You try to get up, but your back hasn't hurt this bad Floyd | since your first yoga practice. Floyd | Floyd | Flaming Inferno Floyd | This is just a place in the woods, surrounded by a roaring ring of Floyd | flames. Floyd | A burning hubcap rolls past you.

Floyd ] Flaming Inferno Floyd | > Floyd | > X BOTTLE Floyd | Floyd | Oh crap. You know this bottle. Floyd | Floyd | A shape stumbles from the fire, ragged, burnt patches of skin on the Floyd | hands. Paul. He otherwise seems okay, though. Floyd | "Paul" you croak, "I didn't know that the tank would explode quite so Floyd | messily." Floyd | Then you notice his red glowing eyes and crap your pants (not Floyd | literally). Floyd | "Oh, not to worry" says Uncle Wally. The last step he takes towards Floyd | you feels like it takes a year. Floyd | Floyd | Alex and Paul will return.

| FloatingInfo asks, "Are there any other games?" | ||
| Taleslinger says (to davidW), "That was the intended reaction! Yay!" | ||
| DavidW says, "Just those two, I think." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Okay, I'm terribly sorry about the unintuitive bits." | ||
| Taleslinger says (to FloatingInfo), "7 or so" | ||
| DavidW asks, "oh, are the others not Floydable then?" | ||
| Nitku says, "Those two are the only ones in the New Year's event" | ||
| Nitku says, "(Tale meant previous Alex & Paul games)" | ||
| DavidW says, "ah" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Oh, I misunderstood" | ||
| FloatingInfo asks, "Guess we're done then?" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Thanks for playing, you guys" | ||
| DavidW says, "Despite all the bugginess, I still liked that game quite a bit." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Maybe next year I'll get some beta testers." | ||
| Nitku exclaims, "Thanks to everyone for attending!" | ||
| DavidW says, "There's something about a gay sociopath in a golf cart that just does it for me, I guess." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "To each his own." | ||
| FloatingInfo goes home. | DavidW says, "The end credits ought to be the cat meowing in the destroyed kitchen." | |
| Taleslinger says, "ha ha" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "The cat was just there to explain the rat getting into the front door" | ||
| DavidW says, "It'll give Alex and Paul something to talk about." | ||
| DavidW says, "something new, I mean" | ||
| DavidW says, "Does the time travel bit mean we (gasp) might be returning to previous Alex & Paul games ala Back to the Future? 'Cause that would really be insane." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "I ... hadn't thought about that." | ||
| DavidW says, "Well, I assume Wally is gonna attempt to not be killed -- unless he likes being dead, which he might do." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "He does inhabit Paul's body, which will cause all sorts of trouble, I'd imagine." | ||
| DavidW says, "oh, I'm sure it will." | ||
| DavidW says, "well, you have another year to think about it. :)" | ||
| DavidW says, "(so exciting)" | ||
| DavidW says, "We might instead ignore the time travel doohickey and just battle the Queen of M and H." | ||
| Taleslinger says, "I think Next Year I'll make an actual game, not a bugfest thrown together in a few weeks." | ||
| Taleslinger asks (of nitku), "Will you upload these to the ifdb?" | ||
| Nitku says, "Yes, tomorrow" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "Yay. Thanks." | ||
