I am not saying this bug should be fixed retroactively ! Just giving the
poor sod his spells is enough. We agree with the fact that we lost
several turns of enjoyment out of it and are not expecting anything
more.
Bug reports were send to the gamemaster several times and never a single
reply came back. We have been patient until now, but patience doesn't
pay off here. We were litteraly forced to take this to the G2 list. I do
not like this and Ruben especially doesn't, but we have to.
But yes, bleating helps (I presume bleating is repeatedly asking ?),
look at how Andrew Penny got the movement/riding bug fixed not so long
ago when he was invaded by 300 men on horses. Even the timespan the bug
got fixed in was short then. Maybe I should take the mail from A.Penny
and replace each of the 30 times he complains about the movement/riding
bug by the "Eating of the Death"-bug. Would that help?
I am not blaming Andrew anything, I am even saying that he made a smart
move with this "bleating". Maybe I should hire him to write a mail to
the G2-list to complain about the bug as our plea definitely misses its
effect :)) What about it Andrew? Is gold okay? Olympia gold off course
:))
