I thought long and hard about how to describe Pink Floyd_Mintaka's (winner of a variety of awards including my own MPAG award for pure genius) various, numerous, contributions to this academy in this long overdue comment. Weaponsmith, musician, mapper, mentor, joint creator of the Mintaka's, superb duelist, helpful, and more than anything, an all round fun guy. It was a daunting task.

So to The Floydster (aka Old Man Mintaka, That Bloke Who Likes Ninjas, Pinky etc.) I can only say... What a guy.

Here's #5000.

P.S In the immortal words of Kenwan: Pink Floyd rules! (not the band)

Sounds great so far man, can't wait to hear the finished article! It actually reminds me of something else, but i can't think of what it is.

Hey thanks, can't decide how difficult the game was, after all i have quite a lot of Zelda experience at this point, so not entirely fair to judge it by my playthrough.

Glad you did ok in your chess tourney, shame you didn't come first, but as long as you had a good time then thats what matters. :) Sounds crazy about the first place tie thing.

Coolio preview :D i'm liking what i've heard so far! The trance thingy is cheesy, but at the same time, somehow hypnotically listenable lol.

Eek i have two exams this week, so probably won't be on that much. :(

Yeah i tried playing WW before TP arrived, it was an interesting diversion, however since i started TP i have not once had an inkling of an urge to play WW again. :P

Chess eh? Well i can't help you much there i know nothing about playing it, nor confidence in doing so! However i'm sure if you just relax before you go into the game, go over some strategies etc. That you will do okay. :)

If you are having blockage then sometimes the only thing to do is to take a short break, perhaps try and come at it from a different angle. Is there another room you have not yet started you could design/start mapping, even if it dosn't connect to what you have already made?

Things arn't too bad, however i have had some terrible headaches this week, and generally felt under the weather. Plus i'm kinda missing my gf now, its been almost a week since she went up :P:(

I would ask if you are free for some duels, but after what happened last time, and it being a 7:30am start for me tomorrow its probably not a good idea!

I'm on the finale now, its immense, i'm trying not to compare it to Wind Waker as it is so much better than it that its almost unfair to compare them. (and i'm a WW fan...).

Upto you as to whether you buy it now, but you must play it at some point, not revolutionary (although it certainly takes the Zelda series in some great new directions), but more a masterclass in everything Zelda, they have taken everything good about the series and created the best instalment of it ever.

Anyway :P no worries bout the lateness, twas fun! Hows life? :)

Cool man, can't wait to see a Mintaka Map, if its to the standard you're christmas one was then it should be excellent! Especially considering the amount of time you will have spent working on both versions in the end. :)
