I just pasted Duffmeister's URL into my browser, and it functions correctly for me. The fact that the problem is occuring in different gamebooks where no one else has reported any problems suggests to me that the problem lies with your own computer, Duffmeister. Perhaps you should check for viruses or reinstall your web browser. If you are using windows, it's a good idea to format your main installation drive and reinstall your entire operating system periodically (I do it every year).
Here you are, then: http://www.ffproject.com/cgi-bin/fbook2? n=12&a=08080C0C0707000000002000000000000104 000000000A010000000000030404&b=10E063900000 0000000070200000000300000000&s=1875110214&f =000001045700000008000000000000000000000000 000000&x=164305&t=24
Thanks for posting this (I have chopped it up now to avoid making a mess of the guestbook, but it's all still there) - in general the URL is very useful when it comes to debugging. In this instance, however...
I have tried it and for me it works fine, so I'm not really sure what to suggest, especially as you haven't really made clear exactly what the symptoms are. In as much as I can decipher your original post on the subject you seemed to be talking about being presented with an incomplete page, is that correct? If you reload / refresh the page, does the situation recover, or will the link you posted always produce the same results for you? Do you experience similar things with other websites?
Thanks, Gamebook Fanatic. Sorry, Andy, next time, I'll know what to do.
I have to admit, I'm not optimistic about finding a solution though. The fight you mention above is just an ordinary one - there isn't a great deal there to go wrong. But we will see.
I'm very sorry Andy, and I know this makes me sound denser than a...dense thing, but...okay, here goes ... what is a URL (I'm sorry for my dimness, but if I never ask, I'll never learn)
Oh, and do any FF gamebooks, official or amateur, have a 'Chi' rating (ie: as well as Skill, Stamina and Luck)?
No shame in it, either you know or you don't - and now you do. I don't know of any FF gamebook with a chi rating, but that doesn't mean there isn't one.
Jordan: How do you get the lockpicks BACK, after having possessed them before you encountered Darken Wood?
SPOILER
This is a tricky one. If you lose the lockpicks in Darken Wood, then you won't have an opportunity to buy more until after the point where you really need them. When the Crow asks you if you are a Champion of the light, say 'no', then answer his question correctly about what the Diamond Key is a key to. As a clue, diamond is the most precious substance, and so the Diamond Key is the key to what is most precious thing in this world (according to the makers of the key). If you can't figure this out, there is a way earlier to discover it. When you are on watch at night in Darken Wood, you have a 1 in 6 chance of observing a strange fire. If you go to the fire, go through it to hell, and defeat the demon; then upon your return, you will be told what the answer is.
What would Simon Osbourne's sequel to Bodies in the Docks be about?
I take it you read the review and response I posted links to last time you asked a similar question. That's all I know on the subject, but Simon is quite easy to get hold of : see the links page for his site. Better still - because I'm sure you're not the only one who is interested - you could also try posting this question on one of the Yahoo groups.
Andy, you said that if the sections didn't fully appear, I should copy and paste them here. Well here you are:
Hunger Of The Wolf
YOU First SWAMP ORC
Attack Strength = 19 Attack Strength = 14 YOU Second SWAMP ORC
Attack Strength = 21 Attack Strength = 15 YOU Third SWAMP ORC
Attack Strength = 20 Attack Strength = 16 72
No, I didn't say that at all. The only thing I suggested copying and pasting (and then emailing to me) was the URL (this would be very helpful). However, this gets us a little closer. What exactly are you saying happens here? Does the page only partially load, or does it load completely but not give you any fight links?
In Lair Of The Troglodytes, are there 2 endings? I've got the one where
SPOILER
You become a hero for facing the adventurer, but I feel like I'm missing something. I can't find the magic spear, is that neccesary for the other ending?
