Still no sign of a compiled version of this.

If nobody else is doing one I'll give it a crack.

Is there an alternate hosting anywhere? I hate Rapidshare.

Seems Rapidshare sucks really. 10 Downloads max. Without registered account!

Megaupload
Uploaded.to

I send this even to N-S, seems like he don't want to put it into his sig. Don't know why.

I've just recently finished reading this, N-S that was bloody brilliant! Whilst it's a crying shame that it had to end, all stories must at some point. I've been reading Sci-Fi/Fantasy for many many years and these are 437 pages of pure gold!

Yes Sluggie

Any sign of a new adventure for Steve? Or is RL still dominating your time?

Perhaps..

..but then there's the problem of which direction to take it, how to keep it sufficiently fresh and interesting, and all without rehashing old ideas. It is after all sometimes possible to have too much of a good thing even though that may seem improbable. For a professional writer of course it might be less of a concern, that is after all what they get paid for. Sadly, I'm not one.

It's a concern as you can see just from a glance down the Creative forum at all the child DiD's that spawned in the wake of 'Steve' et al and died just as quickly. There aren't many that really got anywhere.

Still, if nothing else, the whole thing engaged peoples imaginations for a while and introduced them to some new concepts, a new way to look at things perhaps, outside of the rigid definitions of 'How it should be played' so that's no bad legacy to end on.

As for the future?

Well, the future is what the future will be, so we'll see.

I can understand that NS.

If it doesn't happen, and I think I'm speaking for every one of your fans, you have left us with 3 of the most compelling reads on this forum. Your legacy will go on and on as people throw away the manual and use techniques and ideas spawned by Squiddy, Mac and Steve.

Cheers

Chalky :D

"Nuke", you're a legend on these forums.

It is always difficult for legends to keep up with ,if not exceed one's past efforts,whatever their indulgence is,music or otherwise.

But I am sure there are many here who would love to have a new read from you.
If not based on TC,perhaps when TNBT arrives ?

I don't know, Scion Drakhar's seems to be working pretty well.

And besides, the Steve start is not easy. At all. But with two new plots to work, and all the 'DF Fun' of post-2.5 boarding...

Of course it's your choice to do or not, but it's not the game itself that's interesting. It's the talent of the writer. Just playing the game and telling about it is okay, but telling a story requires a talent and flair that not everyone has. Plus you've got the dedication to put the game time in and write the story.
