I'm still alive and (relatively) well!

Holy crap, has it been that long? Almost four years? I guess it has... would this forum software lie to me?

So anyway last night I'm chilling in front of my computer doing nothing productive (as is often the case), when I get an IM from BigJoe. We start talking about ZC (which as you may expect I haven't touched in a couple of years). He goes into great detail about all that has been added since I was last around. It all sounds interesting, so I decide, what the hell, let's download it and take a look around. It was then that I started reminiscing, about the good times (and some bad, but mostly good). There were times I was thinking of coming back before... but this time there was no turning back.

So having been bitten by the ZC bug again, I decide the next logical thing to do would be to come back here. After somehow managing to remember my password (I think it came to me in my sleep, I am not joking), here I am.

I've got some unfinished business I'd like to take care of. Such as this "Conquest of Sarpadia" quest of mine that, thankfully, I remembered to back up. It's about 95% complete and I intend to finish it. I was thrilled when it opened without any difficulty in the newest ZQuest. And speaking of ZQuest... I still have my original tutorial available. I'm not currently able to host it online, but maybe somebody else is... they're welcome to do so. I'm not totally against working on it again sometime, it's just that I have so much catching up to do.

I'm currently unemployed (though hopefully not for much longer as my unemployment runs out in a few weeks ) so I will be around. And I intend to stay around. No more abrupt departures for me.

Dizzamn. Welcome back man.

[Nicholas Steel]

Yea, i wasn't here either when you left but i was around when you tutorial was still online, probably lurking tho. your tutorial was a huge help for me :)

[Gleeok]

Welcome back. I too used your tutorial when I picked up zc for the first time. Very helpful. Points of great interest in the new beta, in order of greatness:

Scripting
Enemy Editor
Item Editor
...other stuff like dungeon carving and combo alias, more zq hot-key features, screen flags, etc.
Subscreen Editor


And good luck with the employment.

And here I had completely forgotten about alphadawg. I typed in that website so many times I had it memorized by keystrokes "casadealphadawg." It's been a long, long time.

Welcome back.

Holy shit. Welcome back, man.

It's been a looong time.

I remember us having our Dallas vs. Philly fights.

Hahaha.
