...And realize another person just returned from the MALL :eww:
Thank you, Yandros , for tempting me with this delicious mission (cookies...YUM!) and keeping me from the dreaded Christmas Shopping Spree :cheeky:
[SPOILER]The snowballs were particularly fun :) Gathered them all gently together, and took them in the house to explode them over the Christmas Tree *Wheee* . Great fun, and no mess to clean ! [/SPOILER]

Heh heh.... personally, I like saving all 19 for the camvator sequence and then plastering G. and his guests with them. :ebil:

With raetsel's help, I've just uncovered a minor bug. If you do what I mentioned in the above post, the mission doesn't end properly after the camvator sequence (it used to until the last change I made to the mission, which is why I didn't catch it). I'll be posting yet another minor revision (v2.2) sometime tomorrow to fix this. Obviously, it won't be necessary for anyone who's already downloaded the mission to get this fix unless you just want to. You can always use Alt-Ctrl-Shift-End to force the mission to end and see your stats.

:eek: Thanks! That's what I call a full service FM designer! :D .
Tell me about it. :eek: I started getting deja vu reading that, if I'd slept recently I would've remembered sooner this was the same fello who fixed up The Summit so I could play it. My poor little video card was pitching a fit, and he went and knocked out the particle effects, which gave me a framerate I could handle. Talk about heaven on earth . . .
Until the death crunch. :laff:

For the first half hour of this mission all I did was walk around the gorgeous and homely Thief's Home, listening to the Christmas Song (my very first task was to find those records and turn on the lights in the Christmas tree ;) )! It was wonderfully relaxing -- all that was missing was a glass of eggnog in my hand (or, where I'm from it would rather have been a season's drink called 'glögi' which is basically Glühwein) ;) .
Goregous, relaxing, festive, different, fun! A Gold Hammer for the holiday season! :thumb:

Thanks Yandros!!!! Last years was a lot of fun, I can't wait to play this one.

Whilst playing this warm and cosy little FM, my Missus asked what I was doing..."I'm sweeping the floor" I said...."Huh, cant do that for me can you"!!!she replied a little sour faced.
Problem is, I think now she is going to start giving me a chores list in the same format as Mission Objectives cos she knows I'll not be able to resist doing them...clever woman! :tsktsk:
So, Yandros, you got me a nagging from the missus, but it was well worth it ...great mission:thumb:

This was a really cool mission! If it doesn't put you in the Christmas spirit, you should probably expect to be visited by three ghosts on Christmas eve.
I beat it on "Normal" and "Hard", with some help (I blow at scavenger hunts :erm: ). Just wondering, is the camvator ending any different if you beat it on "Expert"?
I never expected Garrett to be so Martha Stewart-like during the holidays...

:eek: Thanks! That's what I call a full service FM designer! :D That won't be necessary, besides, you've done more than enough work already. :cheeky: I've completed it save getting that one check mark so it's no big deal. I hope I didn't sound like I was complaining. I wasn't, honest. :angel:
If it doesn't work, it's not hard to fix it in Dromed yourself. I can PM you directions if you want.
