First, the loot. I had a $10 coupon off a $10 purchase at Kohl's, so I bought a fleece for my cats and a bath towel. The dollar store had daily planners for $1.50, but credit purchase was a minimum of $5, so I bought some green olives and a kitty squeak toy. I also stopped at Jerry's in Niles on the way home, and along with their usual cheap produce they had two new flavors of these cool Polish sponge cookies with chocolate on top and fruit filling. Small pleasures and stuff.
I currently have (not counting W, which is submitted, and Z, which should be in a few hours--I hope:)
--57 total reviews
--4 cut/pasted from GameFAQs/my own files for quick HGWars points
--28 were actually new
--25 were modified from GameFAQs, much for the better I believe.
Some stuff was left for next year. I want to rewrite a lot of my Apple II reviews, because although they say a lot, they can say it more succinctly. I don't want to set any number, but here are rewrites and new reviews, in approximate priority:
REDO: Magic Candle I/II/III, Dragon Wars, Centauri Alliance, Ultima IV & V (these have rough drafts)
(I may even redo Deathlord. It'll be the last time I bang on about THAT game, wonderful as it is, but it'll be definitive--and hopefully only 8kb.)
NEW: The Castle (SG1000), a IIgs review after Bloomer gets the first--as he should. Any other Apple game I wrote guides for. Ultima Warriors of Destiny (NES.) I'd hoped to hit more platforms, but I didn't quite find the time.
Thanks to all who offered criticism and praise. RotWers, judges, teammates. Having that, and having the reviews so easy to edit, have been important to help me do what I want. It's nice here.
