It's being looked into and will be dealt with.

"There is a new release coming, that I can't wait for... Theif"

Now, that takes me back. Also notice how Thief is mispelled. LOL.

Was a post deleted or was my Mom right about me going blind?

A post was deleted, Al. Someone with the user name "Rich LaPorte" posted. It was not the real Rich LaPorte, so it's been dealt with.

Noticed this under the Quick Takes link:

Football Pro 99

Quick Take:
[ Reader Quick Take: Bill Harris ]

"Well, this is typical Sierra, really, at least their sports division. The game has a complex and rewarding design. They couldn't finish it in time so they just shipped a build, basically. I can't believe they actually envisioned the finished animation and collision detection being this horrendous."

Since it's a sports game, I'm assuming that's the same Bill Harris who partnered with Rich for a while to keep the site afloat. Wow - had no idea his history with the site went back so far.

In case Mr. Fed was still wondering, that poster was what I mean when I say "touchhole".

Very uncool.

DD, thanks for the Wayback Machine through time. Ah, the nostalgia of it all...
I miss the way Rich always ended with his classic line "Let me get back to work."
All the accumulated time I've read through Rich's Roll Calls and Bill's Night Calls over the years added up to hours of sheer enjoyment of their wit and wisdom. Both of these guys, and their hard work that they've put into making Gone Gold such an enjoyable site to visit will be missed.
