In Response To: Re: Tempus Irae Volunteers - Sordidae, Turpes Et F (Steve Levinson)

: I would also note that this is the first level in the second chapter,
: Umbra. As you may recall the umbra is the central dark area of a shadow,
: most commonly associated with the area of totality in a solar eclipse. The
: chapter screen for Umbra is exceptionally beautiful, a small portion of
: which appears at left.

Argh! Every time I returned to that level to double check some things I said to myself: "Damn I forgot to mention the chapter screen". Every time I cmd-tabbed out of A1 I promptly forgot all about it... Thanks for picking it up Steve :)

: This is an interesting comment - I always wondered about it myself, but never
: gave it much heed. Clearly S'bhuth wouldn't help Leorardo without reason,
: but I have a real problem with the paradox of knowledge being gained from
: the future, which could potentially alter the very kowledge on which it's
: based. I expect that in this case S'bhuth is doing more to help Leonardo
: apply his geneous to problems he would have solved anyway rather than to
: provide him with shortcuts to the future. Still, why would he do this?

Having just finished the scenario, and having re-read the final screen in Res Edit, I can understand S'bhuth's reasons. I say we hold off discussion of these till we get to that point.

: Hey, this wasn't supposed to be my volunteers series anyway. And while you
: picked up the ball, my wife and I had a great time on the town celebrating
: our anniversary, which is actually tomorrow. Not sure if I'll be writing
: anything tomorrow either, under the circumstances, so feel free to
: continue without me.

Good for you man, congratulations! I'm sure we'll manage without you for just one more day :)
