Owner. I don't (and would never) use Chat myself, and more to the
point, Yahoo! doesn't record what is said in Chat-sessions AFAIK.
That's why everything in my Groups must be said in Messages -
particularly in manicminerandjetsetwilly, because I have my List of
MM/JSW Games to maintain, based on what is posted here.

because I know that the current gamma-release (Jsw5zxhero.tap
modified 26/12/2002 00:31) isn't the latest revision that exists.

is supposed to include every MM/JSW project that I've ever heard
about, even those that I'm now 99% sure will never see the light of
day. But I will delete your entries if you insist.
Now that UMM has been gamma-released, I will remove its entry in
Future JSW64 Games when I next update my List of MM/JSW Games (any
day now, but I've got 20 odd messages to process, and so many
different demands on my time that it's hard to prioritise anything).
That entry mentions a game called "Manic Miner 64: Attack of the
mutant telephones" - I presume this was a working title for UMM,
rather than another game?
Similarly, is Hervé's "Jet Set Willy in the Land of Free" (Message
4848) just another name for _JSW in Transatlantic Cruise_, or will
it be a game in its own right?

1. UMM; 2. UJSW; 3. UMT?
1. UMM; 2. UJSW; 3. UWMTT?

it's a tambourine) using runtime POKE 34271,2 from "Top Landing"
[34].
[The byte at 34271 (#85DF) is Willy's current mode:
0: normal
1: remove Maria
2: running right
3: in the toilet]
