Re: (TFT) new development Heroes and Other Worlds. interesting port of Mel/Wiz

[Jeffrey Vandine <jlv61560@yahoo.com>]

Oh sorry, I thought that was Jay's post in it's entirety -- it's extremely 
difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff in his posts.
So here's what I THOUGHT was going on:  you brought up a few good poin
ts, but then Jay apparently copied your entire post (without credit), added
 some emphasis of his own (as near as I could tell, though I could be wrong
 and he could be repeating someone else, or even you again) and then closed
 up with calling out the original material for copyright violation (which m
ay or may not have been one of your original points -- at this point I can'
t even tell anymore), so I THOUGHT there were several people piling on.
Once on those points was enough, and you, Peter, did a fine job in the firs
t place.  And they WERE more or less neutral -- it was the repetition 
that confused the heck out of me.

So my apologies to all concerned.  I should know better than trying to
 make sense of those run-on sentences and walls of text by now.

Um. I'm not sure why Jay copied my entire post in a few of his posts. 
I couldn't tell if any of them were related to my post in any way or not.

As for Mr. Vandine's post, I also can't tell how much (if at all) 
that was directed at my post or not.

I'll just say that my post about the TFT port, was intended as a more 
or less neutral comment and informational reply/query/detail for 
whoever might be interested. I didn't mean to come off as overly 
negative, but I also wondered about the changes, inconsistencies, and 
incomplete information that it seemed like I was seeing. As I said, 
looked ok to me if one couldn't find an original copy, but also 
potentially confusing.

As for quarterstaffs and Miyamoto Musashi ... no doubt they are good 
weapons but I wouldn't have thought of them as unique disarming 
weapons, so it seems odd to me if it's just a sentence fragment 
adding it as the only weapon which can disarm, and it's just a 
straight roll with no save.
