How is it possible that this genius can play EVERY game without help? I watch the hint forum and see the rest of us mere mortals stumbling about and pleading for help! I am particularly amazed when there is no logic to solving a puzzle but lo and behold MaGtRo knows the answer. Is he/she laughing at us from Olympus or does Stephen Hawking have an alias. Explain yourself! you are damaging my self-esteem.

I too have long wondered the same thing. I have made my peace with the fact that there are a few people who are simply a lot smarter, cleverer, and quicker than am I. MaGtRo is clearly one of these types. I found it easy to accept, appreciate, and take advantage of that genius. (OK, OK, so I'm also a bit jealous!)

Oh Gee - Don't do this to me.

I am just an experienced adventure gamer. Been playing since late '70s.
I also get stumped. More frequently on moving forward in a game. I miss a trigger or something.
The puzzles that holds me up are arcadey ones. I just remember - I also get stumped by mechanical puzzles.

I ask for help - you betcha!
I ask the developers because usually no one else have or are playing at that time.
If the other Staff or members are playing then, I do ask them too.
I do run out of patience or time or hair.

I am just an adventure gamer that is getting old and may soon burn out all my brain cells.

Lo! He speaks to us lower life forms. We are not worthy!!

Mag your a genius...dont be shy

Wasn't Clark Kent just a newspaper reporter?? A long time too, if I remember.

Hi, cris53

MaG is a she...

Yes she is exceptionally talented in here love for Adventure Games...

In my book she is a genius & has the patience of a saint..

Mag, your walkthroughs are wonderful, we would all be lost without you. Just bask in the praise, its good for the soul.

MaG
Let me say it again I love your WT, I would be lost without them. Don't ever stop. I use them most of the time. Thanks
Richard

MaG, Don't you dare burn out those brain cells we need you too much.

Your such a treasure, don't ever ever leave us

Ditto...

When I buy computer games I use to think, no way this game has too many puzzles and I may not be smart enough to figure the game out and it will be trashed as a waste of money. So I wouldn't buy it.

Now I buy the games and Since reading MaG's walkthru and joining Gameboomers I have the confident reassurance that I may not be smart enough to beat a puzzle but MaG is!

MaG and for putting a little more fun and joy in our lives as we evade reality for a short time and play computer games. We have the assurance if we get stuck and I usually do at some point, you will be there to lead us to victory.

Sherryah, I agree with you!!. I actually depend on MaG. And yes, I believe she is an expert on adventure gaming. It is so nice to know when I'm stuck I can go to MaG's walkthroughs and get help. MaG for always getting those walkthroughs so quickly. I personally don't know how you can keep up ,you certainly have something special.

i feel the same way MaG is a wonderful,gracious person and without her I would definitely be lost. Please don't leave us we would all miss you soo very muchhhhh. Trisha

"We are not worthy!"...to quote an early 90's movie....

I've said this in the past.
I stumbled on the GB website while playing one of my first games that I was going crazy with.
And then my life changed. I had help.
Thank you MaG for all you do for us.
And thank you to all the moderators and members who also help me.

So everybody lets get in a circle and do this:



RAL

MaG probably wrote more then 150 WTs. Of course only her can tell us the real count.

And I'll bet she could help on any of those games.

Chief

MaG,

You are wonderful,you are always there when I need you.

Thank you

June

Chief...

That is amazing...150 Wts...

There should be an award for the best walkthrough writer...
I know that I am very Partial to her Wts...

I always look for her's...I know there are so many Wt writers here & on other forums...Thank You for your Wts also..

But....I happen to enjoy Mag's...

We are family & we all belong to the Best Adventure Game Forum On the Internet

Thank you very much. You do make me blush. I am glad I can help. That is mainly the reason I do them.

Let's face it, I'm getting old(er).
But I'll keep on trying as long as I can do it.

Chief, Last count several mos ago; somewhere in 170s.

170 WTs!!!! for us.

Are you going yet

Once again thank you.

RAL

Hi

"What is MaGtRo's secret?"

It's that she's simply THE BEST !!

Cheers.

Mad

MaG has created a gaming legacy.

MaGtRo you are amazing
I can't imagine doing one WT, let alone 170 of them.
Keep up the good work, we need you very much.

SnickersMom

We're all getting older Mag
I do count on at least 30-40 years more myself though - and hoping I'll be able to enjoy your WT's that long too!
