No, but, on the other hand, I would love to see you around more.

I have no stance on any of the projects being discussed- and I don't know how to script, sorry.

But I'm all for seeing some screenshots- it definitely is a good way to generate some buzz- and as someone pointed out, its a good way to draw the attention of potential scripters/contributors.

Yes

Godz is an idiot. It was a typo. I get The Wind Age and The Wolf Age mixed up. They happen really close to eachother in the time scale, and they share the same fucking acronym. Not the best choice of titles but what can one do. Most people refer to it as TWA, and when I see that my brain automatically converts to The Wolf Age.

No it was not a reference to you Revan.

To keep from confusing the two - with their identical acronyms, I use 'TWA' for Myth III The Wolf Age, and use the new acronym I made up; 'TWindA' for Myth II: The Wind Age

M3 and TWA.

That seems easy enough.

I think M3 and M4 might be even easier.

until I see playable maps, I'll call it OFT, Our farewell tagset

I object to calling any plugin/mapset/campaign 'M4' or 'Myth 4' on religious grounds. Without getting into a pointless and unproveable debate about how awesome and different than Myth 2 or 3 it will or won't be - it's just not canonical Myth so I refuse to call it Myth 4.

I also don't think 'M3' and 'TWA' are different enough to differentiate clearly between the two things. M2, Myth II and SB are interchangeable, as are M3, Myth III, and TWA. Using the same acronym for a specific game AND a plugin/mapset/campaign for ANOTHER game is not a good thing.

Maybe until it's released it should just be called OFT (Our Farewell Tagset). Of if you want to be optimistic maybe OFT/TWA - "Our Farewell Tagset/The Wind Age".

The title all along has been:
Myth IV More Gore Then Before

catchy right?

Besides the obvious confusion between TWA in Myth III and TWA in your campaign, I think you've also overlooked the confusion people might have between your map 'Myth 4' and the Myth 'Fore!' (PDGA) map.

and the Myth P'fhor plugin !

you know forever people called it "myth 3"

it would seem revan made the choice years after our team did to name his thingie the same 3 letters.

or something like that.

That is probably because it is a port of m3 to m2 and not its own campaign trying to make a new game. Besides, Revan didn't start working on that until more recently so it hasn't been years, is has only been months. Meaning, who knows if he will call it "Myth 3", "TWA", or something else.
