Folks, the capper to this conversaion is at the bottom if you want to know about my "hostility" with NGF at the moment!
How did I insult you?
You keep saying I'm trying to save face, calling my values moronic -- things along those lines.
You ended that "last debate" because I was right.
Wrong. I ended it because you resorted to slander, a sign of lost conversation. It's always the same with you. You were far from correct.
You keep mentioning "NGF" as being only me.
Most of the time it is
YOU. You hardly ever hear of Chris treating people like dirt. Without you around, Chris is a very nice person.
I don't know shit about programming, so where are these NEW "NGF" games going to come from?
I know of a couple sources other than yourself. At least these other sources are credible.
Surely I am not the "NeoGod" that can do everything at all times.
You said it, not me
For some reason Smallwood keeps bringing your name into it, so I just said that you and/or him are welcome to buy what you need.
Bill has his own issues to work through
I',m nist just talking about MVS converted cartridges. Also, I seem to remember you wanting to buy Ironclad from me. It seesm that you do need "NGF" for some things.
But you don't have it. How can you sell something you don't have? Wait, sorry, you're good at that. In either case, offer Ironclad at a respectable price, like the $350 NGF tag, and maybe it would be your top seller.
What about the new games that come from "NGF" only?
We'll have to wait to see on this one.
If they come out, I'm sure they will belong to someone else, you'll just be supplying a fancy package and distribution. I'll buy mine through the 3rd party market (used on eBay).
I am not trying to fight with you, I like you and think you can be kool on the phone, but for some reason you have something to prove "online" for the "fans."
I'm advocating for the people that haven't been around for a couple years to know what you've pulled. Example: First, you claimed all these magical games were SNK releases, that's now changed to "When have we ever said SNK official?". You used to go round-and-round saying these were SNK official. Yea, SNK may have designed the artwork, but scanning it in and making an insert is by no means official. Again, I use the analogy of the US $1 bill. Can you scan, print, and call that official? You may be using SNK artwork, but your inserts are in no way SNK *authentic*.
I don't understand it.
I wouldn't expect you to.
Will I ever get that CD from you? (As you said I would) I didn't think I was asking to much and you did say you would send it.
After a recent turn of events, No.
I never remember fighting with you either, so why the hostility?
Last time we spoke all was good.
Yes, the last time we spoke, all was swell. You were wanting to send me Digger Man so that I could
dump it for you. So that you could find out about the game number, and because Chris' dump didn't work.
I told you it was up to *you* if you wanted to send it. I never once asked for it. Oh yea, thanks for the gratious offer of trying to sell me a copy after you scarfed up the
only 8 copies available. That turned out to be a lie. Not your lie, but a lie in the world of Digger Man.
A few days pass, some nice inserts, cart stickers, and a manual for this super rare game becomes available for those that want to doctor up their collection.
Then, out the clear blue, I start getting e-mails from a guy named "Ken" (onthaedge@a*l.com) stating the he owns the copyright of the game and that I've sold copies of his game and that he was going to SUE me.
Putting two and two together, I came to the conclusion that you guys (NGF) were feeding this Ken fellow a line of shit because he knew WAY TOO MUCH, WAY TOO FAST about me. The only thing is, the info you gave this guy was lies because you didn't have all the facts:
1. I never dumped Digger Man and released it on the net. Tell Ken to check his shipping records for someone in Tiawan. The game was out the day before I got my MVS copy. Hell, I wouldn't be suprised if that was Chris' dump that made it to the Internet. It wouldn't be the first time he put a dump out there.
2. I never made any illegal copies of this game to sell.
I know it was you guys because he listed a couple names that only CHRIS and DION would know that I deal with.
The only thing you (he) DIDN'T know is that the names he listed, all 3 have Digger Man MVS carts!
So, you want to know why I'm pissed at you guys? Because you couldn't stand a little competition in the Insert/Sticker field, so you went behind my back and tried to set me up for a fall.
That, in my book, is not the act of a friend. So, all is NOT cool unless you can PROVE otherwise.
There is more to the story, I'm just giving the Reader's Digest version. It's your turn to save face.
What exactly is your involvement with this Ken guy (www.thegameroom.c*m)?
Jeff
