Just to inform that I'm the latest addition to this Awesome team. I'm the guy who will make the looong winded posts.
Today I've published my first instalment, so go check in the page (linky below in the sig). Have a great time in there and leave your comments if you feel to it. A big thank you to Kitty, TCD and DH for the warm welcome received and having the courage to let me post my ramblings. Last edited by TCD; 10 July 2011 at 23:45. Reason: Updated URL |

Well, a tiny bit of work was done during the last 5 days. It all started on Friday when some random blogger f*ck ups got us fed up to the point that we decided that it would be time to move on. The most amazing Magix () kindly offered us some webspace and installed a shiny new WordPress on it for us (note to all bloggers: Change today! ). It was quite a ride to move the content over, but we're really happy with the result. There will be a lot more neat stuff in the future, so stayed tuned
Oh yeah, you can now find us under : http://awesome.commodore.me/ Last edited by TCD; 10 July 2011 at 23:46. |

Well, the download pages need a bit more work (the menu shouldn't disappear from the top imo), but aside from that it is looking much nicer!
Sadly I won't be able to post much for a few days - I'm snowed under at work again... |

I guess the blogger not-working-for-several-days-then-fucking-up-everyone's-posts incident a while back was what started you looking to make a proper site? At some stage I'll need to do the same thing, but for now blogger meets my needs... especially when all the annoying blogger bits have been hacked out

<techy person showing up>
Well, we had 'ideas' and were quite close to the 10 pages limit. That plus the 'incident' made the decision quite easy to move on. Now we can do pretty much all we like (especially I can do a lot more now), the step was (and is ) quite some work, but it really pays off. At least in our opinion. New people offer to help out and hopefully it'll all come together like we plan in the end Oh and Blogger can kiss our tasty behinds Really, the amount of f*ck-ups they produced wasn't funny anymore |

Nice site Kitty,
I loved playing Icicle Works on the plus4 it was one of my all time favourite games, when you scored 10,000 or something like that, you always had lives left. Fire Ant and Treasure Island were pretty good too. I think I had Booty for the plus4 and a few other titles, I wish I had kept that computer, it would have been the bees knees if only it came with a disk drive or they were easier to come by back then |

Due to unforeseeable circumstances, which left me unable to access the internet for two weeks, as I wasn't at home, I have been deleted from CIA.
