Thief fan missions and campaigns

[skacky]

Oh man, I take a nap and suddenly 4 new pages with our friend IronEagle. The fun never stops.

pretty hiveresque, someone must be dumping some heavy industry into the adriatic

 

[Yandros]

No, my comment just no longer makes sense since his posts have apparently already been deleted.

May bad, and also sorry for being completely oblivious to your humor - my friends were bugging me to leave for lunch. Anyway, this is even more fun than the Blue Haze days at TTLG.

UnkCat: That was hliarious.

 

[Random_Taffer]

the Blue Haze days at TTLG.

Oh man! I joined right after all that went down, but I still go back and hunt for old threads from time to time! Good times!

I WILL SHUT YOUR SITE DOWN!!!111eleven

 

[Yandros]

The most fun I had was with cheater1, though. The chessmaster guy? He was a tool. I have a couple of his threads bookmarked still. He liked to USE all CAPS to make his POINT.

 

[Tacgnol]

What a hilarious modder meltdown.

How long do you guys reckon till the next?

 

[SlyFoxx]

I haven't been on a Thief board for about a month and then THIS!

Russ! Looks like your boyfriend's back .....and there's gonna be trouble!

 

[Yandros]

Hey now, hey now...

Looks like he took his Scattergories and went home.

Sound like the usual day at the 'dex.

 

[Yandros]

Yeah, TTLG is generally much tamer than most other places on the interwebz, so things like that stand out over there. Just another day at the office here, I'm sure.

 

[JarlFrank]

and my mod reached 23000 view...and im only one,this hurts you eh ? there is a moderator here ? or a have call a lawyer for this put in the crap this congragation of idiots ?

Hey there, I'm an admin here.

You're a child who cannot take any criticism. Please grow up.

 

[Karwelas]

Guys, please let us keep him as a pet in prosperland. It will be fucking beautiful, him and Prosper together. I want to see their Thief FM. Yes, this is genius idea, let make them it!

 

[Renault]

Wow, that was awesome. No one goes nuclear quite like Iron Eagle. I counted 28 posts in about an hour and a half. What will tomorrow bring?

No really guys, THIS IS MY LAST WARNING! Hilarious. I hope his lawyer is multi-lingual - I wonder if he even realizes how god awful his English is. I get the feeling he doesn't. 3/4 of his posts aren't even readable.

Seriously, this guy completely rewrites the definition of crazy. How does he function day to day?

Oh yeah, I finished Heist Society, great mission btw. On to Transitions in Chaos.

 

[JarlFrank]

Transitions in Chaos is great, you're in for a treat!

 

[Karwelas]

Anyway, to post something related to thread. I try to play Art of Thievery again, and I must say that it is really good. I love how every window can help get you all around the mansion, but you can fuck it up and fall down. I also meet robots first time, my god... I almost died when one said one of it's patrol line on the other site of the door.

I try to play as best as I can - No kills, don't let them see you, knock out allowed. Guards with helmets and cameras are hell. It already take me around one hour and I didn't even explore one floor. Garret, give me strength to be good Taffer.

 

[Random_Taffer]

TiC is one of my favorite fan-missions ever. Really magnificent atmosphere.

 

[Renault]

I've played it before, I'm just on a little mansion mission kick right now. Recommendations are welcome. I'm limiting myself to missions where the mansion is basically the entire level, not just a part of it.

 

[Yandros]

Same here on TiC. After Eshaktaar, RoFB's retirement was probably the most depressing to me. And I guess Gaetane has to be added to that list too.

Just so everyone knows, IE is no longer a run-of-the-mill idiot troll to me. He decided yesterday to take a couple of photos of my 9yo kid from my wife's Facebook page, put some pretty depraved text on them, and post them on his website. In my eyes, at least, that elevated him from annoying troll to creepy psycho-stalker-child-molester level. I don't care who you are, that's a pretty fucked up thing to do.

 

[Renault]

That's really crossing the line. Any recourse for something like that?

Re: FM authors, is Gaetane really retired? I think my biggest disappointment in that area was Haplo. He not only made great stuff, but did it often. I wish he would come back.

 

[Yandros]

Agreed on Haplo. AFAIK, Gat is done. At least Lady Rowena is still working on a new mission, sure to be a masterpiece. Same with DrK.

 

[Melan]

This has been great, and you have all been great.

Welcome to the Codex, "Yandros-Penetrator" (if that is even your real name)!

 

[Karwelas]

Guys, staph with these FM's! I can't count them on my list now... damn you, fuck you! 506 things on my list and 45 are from Thief now.
Well... and my CYOA... shit.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Backlog on FMs? This is new to me.
Whatever, I always consider "backlog" a retarded concept. Panicking Giving a damn, on something that you never do because - suprise - new stuff is created faster than you can spend your free hours. Of course it's lower ratio in case of FM but still.
And don't worry, unless you're die hard fan - you gonna get burned out after beating some of them, somewhere below "excellent" level of played FM.

Yeah, well, for all his fucking idiotic lawyer threats, now you got an actual reason to sue that motherfucker if he keeps on doing that. That's bordering on the illegal.

I quite enjoyed Christine's "Coterie of Smokers" mission which is set in a large mansion.
Also, KFort's "Wicked Relics" has to be one of my favourite missions due to how large and varied it manages to be for a mission set entirely in one mansion.
Both authors are retired now, too, ffs

Oh, and Rowena's Curse and Ominous Bequest are mansion-with-a-dark-secret classics, but you've probably played them more than once already anyway.
