Literally. If godz thought ghost was thinking something along the lines of "I scripted the endgame and tested it as good as I could, but I wonder if anyone has ever actually played the endgame on legendary?" then his changing the local and sending in the film was Godz just trying to help - if he thought that Ghost was literally just wondering if the endgame scripting and everything was working ok.

If that were the case he wasn't submitting the film as proof that he accomplished anything, just as a helpful "here's a film of the last level on legendary difficulty" you asked for.
YES! Thank you! This is EXACTLY what my intentions were! My intentions were never to try and make a case that I legitly beat it, just how it COULD be done. You were able to explain it much better than I was I guess.

I have therefore decided to make my final comments concerning this matter thusly !!

I accept your apology.

I now offer my own.
I apologize I offended you with my sarcastic humor.( I had assumed it was apparent via my ;op at the end of my NOTE: )
The post in question has been edited to include (extracting, untagging, disassembling, extraditing, unplugging, localizing, or whatever)

I am DONE!! with this NOW!!
Please refrain from further reponses concerning this matter.
and lastly,
Let us see a/some Deperate/Gauntlet/Bridge Too Far/Full VoD CooP Legendary Win Films as previously outlined so many posts ago. :o)

No need for thanks, it's just what I do. After all, they don't call me "The Great Reconciler" for nothing you know.

I am just happy we can all get along.

(Sorry to interrupt the happy feely reconciling :wink:)

As Pyro said, it was me and not Ghost asking for the film. And there's no way my request could have been interpreted as having anything to do with map debugging. Sorry Godz, not buying that one. :roll:

I don't get why you won't just admit you were pulling a little practical joke. It just makes it worse. Reminds me of that time you denied suiciding even when it was incontrovertibly proven using data from a film.

Okay, I guess I'm not surprised that asking you to admit something has failed yet again (what's new?) Carry on then.

Yeah, I know GHOST. However, my post serves the purpose of clarifying that the argument has been exhausted rather than "reconciled".

You already totally buggered this thread with insignificant BS!! SO now you have to go and post this idiotic question in my new thread i created SPECIFICALLY to seperate it from this BS!! ::ANGRYFACE::
Are you purposely trying to push my buttons?? Seems so, ESPECIALLY since you KNOW THAT a Valley of Despair INTERFACE was RELEASED alongside Valley of Despair Maps over a month ago! Or is it you are in need of that much attention, if for whatever reason, good or bad??
Please do NOT clutter my new thread further!

Oh, and please GROW UP and THINK before you DO!!

Ok, lets walk through your circular, 'i didnt know/not my fault/not what i thought was meant' reasoning as i witness it. You, the creator of the MIII Interface available at the Tain, see the colors red and yellow in my screenshot of Myth, those 2 colors somehow cause your brain to scramble and inhibits your higher reasoning skills thus you can no longer put 2 and 2 together to KNOW that *that* is a *custom interface* at the very least, and *exactly which interface* it is at most.

I can not understand how one attempts to defend an undefendable position, even when its painfully obvious to anyone.

At the risk of being seen as a Godzfire apologist, I realize it's not literally what Godz said, but I interpreted Godz comment as him not recognizing the interface so he was really asking "What interface is that?"

ps. How can I go about getting my own thread?

Don't know where my post went but I wanted to comment on this plugin. It is very hard, especially for online mode. Personally I don't like the TFL touch to it, makes it harder and more unpredictable to play. The TFL styling turning is a pain, the bottle bounces kill your army half the time, and the size of the overhead map makes it really hard to gauge how close/far away you are from an enemy. Lots of cool features but just doesn't play like the Myth 2 I love.

It is still there.

As for not playing like Myth2, sometimes mapmakers try to make things different to change things up.

EDIT: Hey this is my 3453rd post! Thats the same number as the default port used by Myth. :)
