[Audyssey] Torrent is coming along greatly, according to the site!
Hi I was pretty bored, and wanted to see what games were available and then remembered Torrent! The site has 2 soundbytes available. The Mac version is almost done, the Linux I think is nearing completion and the Windows apparently has not been started yet since it says, development will begin or something like that so...

Re: [Audyssey] sidescrollers and third games
I don't think side scrollers are boring at all. What I'm trying to do in SDM is put a side-scroller, not really easy, and when your done with that, a mini 3D hunt to find the boss I definitely agree there aren't enough developers to provide every type of game on the market. That's why I constantly encourage people to start programming, even if it's just Print statements in JustBasic. Randomize it, use some Input commands, you got a small interactive fiction. Add some sounds, it's a bit more interesting. I was taking a look at my old idea/rsg notes from some time ago, looking at the complex ideas I had in mind. Is anyone still up for the Sims? It's technically a 3D Game/Strategy.

Re: [Audyssey] Pre-ordering was MOTA.

Re: [Audyssey] Side-scrollers was MOTA Beta 2.
but randomness can't be implemented in these games, am i right? so that means that once the snake is in level 2 after taking four steps, he'll always be there, so what's the point On 23 Mar 2008, at 23:28, Thomas Ward wrote: Hi Bryan, I couldn't agree with you more. For Will or anyone to play one or two side-scrollers and say all side-scrollers are boring just only proves that the person hasn't had much exposure to them. The truth is some side-scrollers were very difficult and fun in the 1980's. One of my favorites, Double Dragon, was pretty much your average walk along beat-m-up, but it was fun. It was especially fun if you were just in a peed off mood. Grab a bat from one of the thugs and beat him unconscious. If you were attacked by a bunch of enemies you could whip them with a series of well placed punches, kicks, and jumps. It was really fun when you knocked them off of platforms, bridges, or off cliffs. Enemy falls to his doom. Good bye mother huncher. In terms of side-scrollers like Castlevania they were unmatched in replay value. The battle with Dracula was worth every cent of the game. The way he would die and then come back to life in another form was cool. Dracula was also tough to beat because you would hit him with a weapon, he'd vanish, and reappear somewhere else ready to vamp your rear end. The fire balls he would hurl your way were pretty nasty. The other thing I liked about the original Castlevania is there were all kinds of different monsters from skeletons, knights, dragons, mummies, etc. Each gave their own unique combat style and baddy toughness to the game. I hated taking on the mummies just because they wouldn't die with just any weapon. You needed holy water to get rid of them. If you used a leather whip or a throwing dagger you were dead meat. When you were attacked by 3 to 5 of the mummies at once you were toast.Although, I do remember there was this one area you could jump onto above the mummies, they couldn't climb up after you, and if you had the holy water you could dump it on them, and say by by to the creeps.

Re: [Audyssey] RS Games Contest/Side Scroller!
are the blocks anything like tetris or the brick games I have seen around here? Also let me know if and when you are going to be asking for testers. I'd dearly like to be turned loose on a 3 teered monster like this one. At 02:30 a.m. 24/03/2008, you wrote: I would like to congratulate Claudio Zeni for being our contest winner this month. He will be receiving an SDM Value Changer, he can change any variable to what he wants, when Beta 4 is released. Good Job to everyone who participated. And importantly, I have finally figured out a way I think will be ok for SDM's mini side scroller. I have just started it, and am half-way done level 1. I am very puzzled though, KeyCode was so unresponsive (wasn't working half the time), that I took the extra minutes or so to switch to DirectX8 Input, and now it's great. One major improvement from the original source, is the guards are shooting, and when you jump, there are boxes you hit, which power up's come out of. Also, I have changed it to be a bit more realistic. So you need to go past the bomb, and just ignore it. If your quick enough, it won't kill you. Also, they aren't traditional steps. Their blocks. You need to do a power jump (not sure what keyboard commands I'd be using) and go past it. Your limited to 1 power jump per level. I feel this will be more realistic. Possibly, their might be a small, very small 3D style place where you need to find the boss before the time runs out. (Not sure if I should give sound clues to where he is?

Re: [Audyssey] What's Ahead For MOTA Beta 2.
There are quite a number of differences in that situation to what we just experienced here. First of all, I said at the very start of my attempt to make a game that it was just that. A sincere attempt to see if I could do something I've always dreamed of doing. I had never programmed anything before and didn't ever promise that I would finish it. It wasn't somebody else's project that I rescued. It was my own idea from start to finish. Through my development diary which you can read in quite a few issues of the magazine, I let people follow some of what I was going through. Also, I didn't take any pre-orders or even start to think about the business aspect of what I was doing. I wanted to make certain that I had a finished product that I was absolutely happy with before I even started putting all that together. I didn't want anybody to be out any money or feel unfairly treated except me if I faild. Editing the magazine gave me a very strong sense of the community I was trying to develop a game for and how not being able to keep solid commitments made in haste can get you into real trouble real fast. Many of our members are either young or have lived somewhat sheltered lives for other reasons. They simply can't get a sense of how truly hard it is to do what Tom and I have tried to do. I've been to university, managed my own apartment, maintained good relations with friends and family and have had a very limited amount of work experience. That five months of employment is more of a career than many members of the community will ever have. It's not their fault either. People are just on the whole less inclined to give us a chance. Without experience that nobody wants to give you, it's hard to get your foot in no matter how many hoops you jump through. Fully able-bodied High school dropouts frankly have a better chance. Given that, we have a lot of people with plenty of time on their hands who just don't have a good grasp of what reality is like for the developers. They aren't trying to be unreasonable either. They truly can't make the leap of empathy required. Given this, developers have to be educators as well and take care how they approach the whole issue of firm deadlines and such. You really have to have a passion for this kind of thing and have people in your life who understand and support that passion. It's very hard to justify the amount of time you put into developing a game for a community which simply doesn't operate on the same economic level as the mainstream games market. Nobody will ever make a million developing accessible games and I have yet to hear about anybody even making enough to truly live off their earnings. Editing the mag gave me quite a lot of insite in how one ought to deal with the public communications side of things. Be very careful about the commitments you make. People will, quite reasonably, hold you to them. Leave yourself some wiggle room unless you're extremely certain of what you can do and are willing to stick it out to the end if things don't go as planned. What I found out very painfully was that I simply don't have the mind for programming. Look through issues of the magazine and you'll come across Sparkle and Space Miners. I believe I've shown here that I have a good grasp of what makes a good game. I just couldn't explain all that to a computer. It still felt very bad turning away from that but at least I had acted in good faith and without unduely raising peoples' hopes. Out of a desire to do good in the community, Tom commited to completing somebody else's dream. I believe his style of approach was the most open we've seen to date. He released beta versions to the public so that everyone could literally experience progress being made. That is an incredibly jenerous approach. However, as time wore on, Tom's natural desire to put his own stamp on things came to the surfice and he became less satisfied with completing what he had taken on. He therefore tried to change the game entirely well before there was any real good reason to other than his own inclinations to do that. This last time wasn't the first time that had happened. However, this time, he had an actual impassable obstacle to doing what he said. There isn't enough money in the whole community to support the legal funds he'd need to take his case to court even though I strongly suspect he could have won such a contest. One person simply cannot take on a corporation and games just aren't the kinds of things to get organisations behind you like suing a corporation for damages or other more serious things might. Tom then decided to completely and utterly change what he would deliver. It would be a game completely different than what was initially promised. We wouldn't even get the kind of game we had waited years for and paidd for. Comparing that to what I've tried to do is just not reasonable. Once Tom has done this sidescroller, I believe

Re: [Audyssey] my thoughts on mota
I should say on the copywrite thing, we all knew this would happen. We really don't have much of a place in the sighted market not that we attempt to try, we are just to small. People will tell us to stop but not to join us. We really only have a voice on audiogames.net, its not like we will be going anywhere fast. but we can at least try to keep moving.

I can completely understand your not wanting to square off against Utopia Technology's lawyers, Tom. Given that opposition, I have no problem with you not producing a clone of Monty. It's a big disappointment. Your decision regarding that is completely understandable. However, changing gears so completely like that was very hard to take. Keeping with the sidescroller style of game will at least give people like me the satisfaction of seeing at least part of our dreams fulfilled in a new and doubtless bold way. I'm pleased that at least we'll finally be getting a good sidescroller out of this mess. That is a far more satisfactory compromise to the situation than to make an entirely different genre of game. I have every confidence that you can produce a stellar sidescroller. Now that it's going to be completely your creation, I look forward to a game with your heart and soul in it. Take as long as you need to in order to make this game count. Now, I feel that we will indeed be getting a better game than what we paid for. You don't have to worry about me hounding you about timeliness or anything like that. You're honouring what you set out to do in the best manner possible given the circumstances.

Hi Michael, I have read your email and find myself for the most part agreeing with you about work ethics, sticking things through to the end, and trying to follow through with promises made. It was both my promises as well as the fact I took pre-orders in December why I have changed my mind and have decided to begin work on a new side-scroller with a treasure hunting and archeology type theme to replace Montezuma's Revenge. In your email it is quite clear you are disappointed about the fact Montezuma's Revenge was canceled. I also recognize your desire to have a side-scroller as close to the original Montezuma's Revenge idea as possible. how ever, as you know I was recently asked to take the Montezuma's Return game down do to copyright issues and to cease and desist from producing that type of game. Rather than argue with the copyright holder's demands I agreed to meet all of their terms. If it hadn't been for that major set back the game would probably be nearly finished by now. I certainly can not promise you a Montezuma's Revenge game, but perhaps I can create a side-scroller of equal value that will be satisfactory to you and others that were so hoping for Montezuma's Revenge/Montezuma's Return. About the best I can do is try and deliver another high quality side-scroller with action, adventure, and of course treasure hunting. I honestly don't know if you will like it or not, but all I can do is try. One of the ideas I am considering for the new side-scroller is changing the location of the game to ancient Egypt. One of the reasons for the change to Egypt is I have always liked he Egyptian type enemies like bats, mummies, snakes, scorpions, crocodiles, etc that are popular in games about Egypt. The gods and goddesses of Egypt make very cool enemies or bosses. Another very good reason to think about Egypt is in more contemporary times archeologist's have discovered the Egyptian jewelers had access to some kind of low voltage electric power in order to create electroplated jewelry. Like the Babylonians the ancient Egyptians may have used dry cell type badderies filled with fruit juices and a copper rod to produce electric current. The reason this is important is in the Montezuma's Revenge games there are electric fields that would have been beyond the Aztec's technical means, but the ancient Egyptians may have had the technological ability to use dry

Re: [Audyssey] sidescrollers and third games
I think we need to look at this in prospective, we don't have programming teams as such, big companies and things. Heck we don't even have the tech. No big multiplayer servers, no major companies or networks. We have 1 or 2 big gaming foundations, including several universitities. Several 1 man bands, and a few things with directx. Due to dx changing to xna we may not even have that for much longer. Sure I'd like a 3 d game over a shitty side scroler but we are lagging behind. Lets see. A couple are on python, some are on autoit. most of the devs out here are still using vb6. Some use dotnet c# and vb, one or so use java. We don't have oodles of bandwidth either. I always hope it will get better. But heck we are only operating off home computers really. Its not like we can aford anything flash well at least most of us can't. A few can though. This is beside the point. Will there be 3d games. Oh yeah there will be. How long will we have to have crappy games? probably for a bit. Oh we must remember that there will be people including me that have not played the old crappy games. So We have to start from the low end. I want to know how crappy the games are that were before I advance otherwise there is no point. We try to stay modern without going back to the past. I'd still like old games with the origional sounds, etc. There are just not enough of us to go round. I'm not saying slack off by any means I am just saying that for now we have what we have. If the community grows up to fast it will fall on its face and well I don't want that to happen. So are we ready for more advanced games? As has been shown on here some of us are not. And thats fine. I think there should be more hybrid style games. With old and new things. sdm has 3 themes. And whilst thats real hard to make it means that we will have to battle our way to more interesting things. A trophy system would also be good. One of the sighted games my friends play is myst, you click icons is what I am described and do things. Not sure how it would work on the blind games but there are vary few point and click games. Not sure if thats possible. I'd like another hybrid like teraformas.

For some people they are into retro remakes of old Atari and Nintendo games. Others are into remakes of modern FPS and RPG games they have heard about or tried playing for XBox, Play Station, and so on. As a result a game developer may wind up specializing in one style or another. I have seen a number of posts saying side-scrollers are boring. I don't believe it is the side-scroller format itself that is boring, but the game itself. I personally find SL sort of boring, but that is just because the game doesn't apeal to me. I can name several side- scrollers I really loved because they were challenging like Megaman, Double Dragon, and Castlevania. However, in recent years like my sighted peers I too have been drawn to the more modern full 3D thing. Games like Tomb Raider, Jedi Knight, Doom III, and so on have a lot more to offer in terms of game play and realism. For example, one game I play a lot, or try to, Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness is like playing a part in a movie. There are lots of full motion vidios, cut scenes, between the levels were characters interact and set up the plot for the level you are about to play. For example, the first two cut scenes in Angel of Darkness sets up the plot for the game where the monstroms murder Von Croy and then frame Lara Croft for the murder. It then shifts to Lara's escape from Von Croy's apartment, and ends with her standing in a back alley of Paris. Open level 1 where you, as Lara, must escape from the police, and get into a near by apartment building. Unless you have played these newer 3D style games complete with full motion vidio etc you will never know how much game technology has changed since the 1982 game of Pitfall or the 1984 game of Montezuma's Revenge. Personally, new games blow them away in every sense of the word imaginable.

The reason is likely to do with how screen reader like jaws process text. with correct punctuation, it's far easier to get the sense of what someone is saying. it's also a good habit to get into in case you need to write a formal letter. for example. i work in tech support. Most of my correspondence are via e-mail.

In addition to the time factor if you are selling a game with one kind of story, genre, style of game play, and later change your mind you are sort of stuck. You advertised one thing and decide you aren't happy with it you have x number of people expecting one game while yourself now wants to move in a different direction with it. I find myself bound to my pre-orders and I have to own up to the fact I took about 150 orders over the holidays and have no choice but to follow through with the side-scroller project.

Although it is true to say thomas has seen no money from this, we ahve most of us, paid for this game damn near six years ago! As thomas is getting upset via side scrollers, and feels his heart is not in it, he is only producing this new game, which he'd have to code from scratch after research, fore a handful of individuals why not therefore, work on raceway, get a beta out and then go back to the sidescroller? will --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

I'm not sure how easy this would be to do, but I'd deffinately appreciate a way to hear those litle bits of audio when you recieve each trophy again, I remember some of them being quite funny, but it's a long time sinse I got some trophies and would certainly like to hear them again, - perhaps by pressing enter on each trophy you've got while viewing it in the trophy cabinet? I also would quite like more music in the game if possible, the tune that's in there is great already, but something else, - particularly after the intermission sequences at level five and I believe level seven would do a lot imho for the audio ambience of the game. appologies if either of these is incredibly impossible to do, the game's certainly incredibly good already. as reguards speach, I really love the voice acting both in superliam and jd, the cutscenes and messages really add a lot to the game's atmosphere, and you play a very convincing villain ;D. While I can certainly see how having sapi speak your score, and maybe menue items as well would make things like scoreboards and player names a great deal easier to manage, I really hope you'll keep in as much voice acting as you can, - and that goes for any future games your working on as well. beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] sidescrollers and third games
Hi Will, Doo keep in mind that the Montezuma's Revenge engine was for the most part suppose to mimic or emulate the original game to a degree. If I would have added lots of randomness or other modern features into it the purests would have had a fit. I am developing a totally new side-scroller now, and since it is not suppose to be based on any specific game I can think about some random features, or do things differently. Maybe not randomly place every item in the game or monster but things like attack damage, health power ups, etc would make a big difference already. Here is an example of a side-scroller trap that was used and made the game challenging. In the original Megaman, a side-scroller from the 1980's, there was this area where Megaman had to jump across these colored blocks. One would appear and you would have to jump on it. Then, when the next one appeared jump onto it as the one you were standing on vanished. Because the blocks appeared and disappeared at random intervals you never knew when the one you were standing on would vanish and the next one would appear. Sometimes you might have to jump back a colored block or face being killed by the vanishing block you were standing on. I use to get killed all the time on those stupid blocks, it was hard, but took a while to get across them. To say every side-scroller is boring and too easy is simply not true. The problem is no blind accessible side-scroller has lived up to the hkind of challenges in Megaman and other games of that era that made gaming history. will lomas wrote: but that's what is annoying. why are we making these dull side scrollers, they old crap technology no randomness, no interactions jsut walk forward and backwards, that's why i completed super laim in an hour --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Exactly. In fact I have a lot of .nsf sound files on my laptop from various games. The .nsf format is really cool since it's the actual game sound format, complete with the game's sfx in many cases.

Re: [Audyssey] Torrent is coming along greatly, according to the site!
I was a tester on that game too. Unfortunately, even if you have the setup file, you still need to activate it. Thanks to a destroyed hard drive which needed replacing on my laptop and having to get a new desktop, I don't have access to a working copy of the game. None of us have heard from the developer in an extremely long time now. At this point, it would be quite a pleasant surprise to have him return to finish the excellent work he started. Sadly, I believe economics have forced him to pursue other activities.

Re: [Audyssey] making a game together
Except then you have the problem of several different developers trying to worrk on the same project. The only way that would work is if they could all agree on everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. Their programming styles and languages wouldn't be the same for one thing, not just the ideas for the game itself. There would just be too many differences between them for that to work well. That's what happened with BSC Games and Castle Quest a few years ago if I remember rightly. BSC tried to work with a third party developer, but licensing issues got in the way. The new guys wanted the license to the game and BSC understandably didn't want to give it to them since it was their idea in the first place. Needless to say that project was scrapped. Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so. - Original Message - From: Claudio [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 6:47 AM Subject: [Audyssey] making a game together Hello all!

Re: [Audyssey] Side-scrollers was MOTA Beta 2.
Hi Will, Not true. There are all kinds of areas where randomization can be used in side-scrollers. The reason it wasn't used in the Montezuma's Revenge game engine is simply that Michael Feir, Charles, and a few others wanted the game to be along the lines of the Atari classic. Even if a snake is staticly placed in room x there are ways to make your encounter more challenging. One the developer can make the snake mor agressive and combat oriented. Two, the developer can use random hit point damage and defense to make the battle more random and realistic. Three, the developer might use a random generator to have the monster appear or not appear in that room at all per game. Currently, I am working on a totally new collection of monsters for the new side-scroller. These new monsters won't be as stupid as the Montezuma's Revenge monsters were. The Monte monsters basicly moved back and forth and attacked if you were in range. They were basically passive until you were in range. The new monsters will be more agressive. The second you enter a room with monsters in it they will start attacking you with what ever weapon they have. No single swing from a sword or shot from your gun will kill them. It will be a battle. There are different weapons being introduced into the game and some weapons will be more effective than others. will lomas wrote: but randomness can't be implemented in these games, am i right? so that means that once the snake is in level 2 after taking four steps, he'll always be there, so what's the point --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] I have a psp!
Hi folks. I recently managed to get my hands on a psp, but now am a bit lost as to how to actually use the system. Could someone describe to me the basic layout of the system, where everything is? And a question... does anyone know if games can be downloaded straight onto the psp? Or does it have to go through a UMD? I'm asking because there are a few games I want to play to try out and I'm not sure if they'll work or not.

Re: [Audyssey] blind people and punctuation was Re: thanks a lot.
Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this. If you don't punctuate, and your spelling and grammar are horrible, even though you may not be, you appear uneducated, ignorant, retarded, stupid, or just plain lazy. You give people a very bad impression of yourself. If you don't care about your impression, that sure says a lot about you, doesn't it? Especially since the cure is so darned simple. If needed, get a spell checker from the Internet, learn to use it, and do so. Nobody will know that you are a bad speller anymore, and you've just raised people's opinion of you by such a huge jump. People will pay a heck of a lot more attention to you if they can understand your messages. If nothing else, listen to your message before sending it out. If it goes on and on with no pauses, punctuate so that it makes sense. This only takes a minute or two, and the rewards are so well worth your time and effort! --- Laughter is the best medicine.

How would the proceeds be divided/ Who would work on which aspect, and what would the game's theme, plot, and action be? Who would be working on it, and whose name would be on the finished product?

Re: [Audyssey] Happy Easter
My sister once had a skeptical friend who had a bit of an unpleasant experience with those. They had a big bowl of them at the plae where they worked together and she figured there was no way they would taste like what they were supposed to.

Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this. If you don't punctuate, and your spelling and grammar are horrible, even though you may not be, you appear uneducated, ignorant, retarded, stupid, or just plain lazy. You give people a very bad impression of yourself. If you don't care about your impression, that sure says a lot about you, doesn't it? Especially since the cure is so darned simple. If needed, get a spell checker from the Internet, learn to use it, and do so. Nobody will know that you are a bad speller anymore, and you've just raised people's opinion of you by such a huge jump. People will pay a heck of a lot more attention to you if they can understand your messages. If nothing else, listen to your message before sending it out.

Re: [Audyssey] Torrent is coming along greatly, according to the site!
thats just to bad. I was hoping to get on the testing, I remember I did not get my application in on time and was regected. Its a pitty that we will not have this game. At 03:49 a.m. 25/03/2008, you wrote: I was a tester on that game too. Unfortunately, even if you have the setup file, you still need to activate it. Thanks to a destroyed hard drive which needed replacing on my laptop and having to get a new desktop, I don't have access to a working copy of the game. None of us have heard from the developer in an extremely long time now. At this point, it would be quite a pleasant surprise to have him return to finish the excellent work he started.

Hi Will, Not true. There are all kinds of areas where randomization can be used in side-scrollers. The reason it wasn't used in the Montezuma's Revenge game engine is simply that Michael Feir, Charles, and a few others wanted the game to be along the lines of the Atari classic. Even if a snake is staticly placed in room x there are ways to make your encounter more challenging. One the developer can make the snake mor agressive and combat oriented. Two, the developer can use random hit point damage and defense to make the battle more random and realistic. Three, the developer might use a random generator to have the monster appear or not appear in that room at all per game. Currently, I am working on a totally new collection of monsters for the new side-scroller. These new monsters won't be as stupid as the Montezuma's Revenge monsters were. The Monte monsters basicly moved back and forth and attacked if you were in range. They were basically passive until you were in range. The new monsters will be more agressive. The second you enter a room with monsters in it they will start attacking you with what ever weapon they have. No single swing from a sword or shot from your gun will kill them. It will be a battle. There are different weapons being introduced into the game and some weapons will be more effective than others. will lomas wrote: but randomness can't be implemented in these games, am i right? so that means that once the snake is in level 2 after taking four steps, he'll always be there, so what's the point --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

When people use incorrect spelling on a sighted forum guess what happens? they simply get banned, or people don't answer their questions. There isn't this huge discussion about their education or lack there of. There are bigger things to worry about in life than someone's spelling. - Original Message - From: Charles Rivard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 3:57 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] blind people and punctuation was Re: thanks a lot. Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this. If you don't punctuate, and your spelling and grammar are horrible, even though you may not be, you appear uneducated, ignorant, retarded, stupid, or just plain lazy. You give people a very bad impression of yourself. If you don't care about your impression, that sure says a lot about you, doesn't it? Especially since the cure is so darned simple. If needed, get a spell checker from the Internet, learn to use it, and do so. Nobody will know that you are a bad speller anymore, and you've just raised people's opinion of you by such a huge jump. People will pay a heck of a lot more attention to you if they can understand your messages. If nothing else, listen to your message before sending it out. If it goes on and on with no pauses, punctuate so that it makes sense. This only takes a minute or two, and the rewards are so well worth your time and effort! --- Laughter is the best medicine.

When the question of why it is important, I try to answer as clearly and understandable as I can. When someone does not get a question asked or doesn't get help with something, and they ask why, and they always use horrible punctuation, grammar or spelling that makes their post practically unreadable, I tell them why. They ask? I answer. Simple as that. There are some people on the list whose messages I don't even bother with, because I know what's coming.

Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this. If you don't punctuate, and your spelling and grammar are horrible, even though you may not be, you appear uneducated, ignorant, retarded, stupid, or just plain lazy. You give people a very bad impression of yourself. If you don't care about your impression, that sure says a lot about you, doesn't it? Especially since the cure is so darned simple. If needed, get a spell checker from the Internet, learn to use it, and do so. Nobody will know that you are a bad speller anymore, and you've just raised people's opinion of you by such a huge jump. People will pay a heck of a lot more attention to you if they can understand your messages. If nothing else, listen to your message before sending it out. If it goes on and on with no pauses, punctuate so that it makes sense. This only takes a minute or two, and the rewards are so well worth your time and effort! --- Laughter is the best medicine.

[Audyssey] Moder says, close this topic (Re: blind people and punctuation)
I personally dont care whether someone uses punctuation or not however this is getting way off topic and so Id like to ask that this topic be closed because punctuation is not the focus of the list if you cant read someones message then its not worth reading. That being said, I'll rewrite this now using punctuation so my message will be worth reading. Please let's all stop the punctuation thread. If you choose to not read someone's message due to poor punctuation or lack there of, that is your choice. If a poster can't bother to correctly put punctuation in, they are risking that someone will skip their messages. Also, let's keep in mind that English is not everyone's first language on list here. So, if there is a poster who does not spell things correctly or use correct punctuation at all times, let's try to be a bit leaniant. English is not my first language, and I know I mess up on punctuation and spelling lots of times, but i do try. So, let's get back to gaming folks. many thanks.

There are bigger things to worry about in life than someone's spelling. - Original Message - From: Charles Rivard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 3:57 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] blind people and punctuation was Re: thanks a lot. Actually, people, whether blind or not, should care about how they are understood. Punctuation and, to a degree, spelling, are important tools used to accomplish this.

My spelling is terrible! - Original Message - From: Darren H [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Charles Rivard [EMAIL PROTECTED],Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 18:15:33 - Subject: Re: [Audyssey] blind people and punctuation was Re: thanks a lot. Charles I couldn't agree more. the amount of e-mails I get from day to day with poor spelling and sloppy typing is incredible, it takes twice the time to read because you have to work out what the person is trying to say. And this is coming from me, a selfconfessed awful speller, honestly, my spelling is pretty poor.

That's all the more reason to do it all the time. Then, when it must be done, you don't have to go back through and put them in. They're already there. --- Laughter is the best medicine.

When I'm chatting, I never really use puncuation nor do I capitalize things, I haven't been doing that on audiogames.net either, although for more i'mportant things (essays? papers? reports?) I have to go back and put periods, commas, exclamation points, question marks and quote marks etc. Point is: When reading, writing, or otherwise doing anything email-related, heck with it... Dunno why, I'm just not used to capitalizing in this stuff.

Yes I'm aware of this, however if the person hasn't been using punctuation for the past 20 years what makes any of you think they'll start using it now? If you think punctuation on this list is bad, you should try talking to some of the sighted people on MSN. now that worries me. - Original Message - From: Darren H [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 8:06 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] blind people and punctuation was Re: thanks a lot. The reason is likely to do with how screen reader like jaws process text. with correct punctuation, it's far easier to get the sense of what someone is saying. it's also a good habit to get into in case you need to write a formal letter. for example. i work in tech support. Most of my correspondence are via e-mail. Imagine what would happen if I didn't use correct punctuation? chances are, if you don't write correctly in e-mail groups or discussion forums, it'll bleed over to your more formal correspondence, which is a bad reflection on the individual. Just my view and should be taken as such.
