Re: A question for everyone who has recently submitted information to CASA
Ha. I knew it. I still get "Invalid input: return_address" when submitting screen grabs for existing games.

Competition Entries etc. (split from "Genre Suggestions")
The problem with the current genres is that it mixes several concepts into the one grab bag. There should really be separate categories for where the game is set (city, country, planet etc.), when the game is set (year or period, past, present, future etc.), style of game (serious, humourous, murder ...

Re: Site problems
This is a bit late, as I didn't notice the thread, but I couldn't log on. I fixed it by resetting the password, then changing it back again. This might be a useful tip for others.

Re: A question for everyone who has recently submitted information to CASA
I used to get that all the time and just ignored it. It now says, "You can now go back to where you came from" with "go back" being hyperlinked to the game's page. So, the old bug appears to be fixed, but I'll keep an eye out anyway.

Re: Google adventure
Did you search from the Google home page? It won't work with another search engine like Yahoo or Bing. Are you sure you're displaying the developer's console? Other than that, I can't think what to try.

Re: Google adventure
One of the blokes at work found it in an article on lifehacker and it's mentioned in a Wikipedia article on Google's easter eggs. A search for "Google Easter eggs" may find some other references.

Google adventure
I just discovered that there's an old-fashioned text adventure embedded in the Google search engine...if you know where to look. Yes folks, it's another Google easter egg.

Re: Please delete Evil Crypt - not an adventure
I agree. It's a role-playing game. However, if we're going to start deleting RPGs, here's a few more type-ins to consider for deletion:

Re: Adventure games in popular culture
I know this is an old topic, but I remember at least three adventure references in Big Bang Theory . Firstly, two short transcripts with Zork references, then a longish transcript with an unnamed text adventure. Can you identify the last one or is it a mashup?

Re: Seeking SUDS games
I found a new SUDS game called House of Dreams written by areg5 in around 2005. In the process, I discovered a few new abbreviations, including AP (age progression) and AR (age regression). The author's nick name is probably derived from the latter. As best as I can work out, this is an adult-themed ...
