Don't want to look too curious, but nobody ever said anything
about "Mine Vehicle Department"... Don't you have any comments on
it?

I have not played "UMM" to completion yet (I will do it in due

time;

I like following certain routines Dr. Broad's style :-) ), and
since you've asked us not to cheat or look at the game in JSWED, I
haven't seen "Mine Vehicle Department" yet. Expect my comments (as
well as possible other comments about the game) probably in two to
three months' time.

You can see it as a club picture right at the upper right corner =D

P.S. Daniel, how much time do you spend, writing such huge
messages??
Just interested =D

Well, I must admit they take me hours to write. But JSW is a great
passion for me, and if I feel very strongly about something, I
usually feel extreme need to share it with others. So I write, in
detriment of sleep, social activities and other things...

And I thought, that you have a special program (I've heard of some of
them), that record what you say in the microphone. Well, there is no
matter, how you do it. It is important, that they are very
interesting to read.

Igor wrote (concerning Herve Ast's "Willy in Transatlantic Cruise"):

Plus: interesting fact. While Willy is exploring all these
beautiful underwater cities and caverns, he can rather simply got
up to his "titanic" and it will be on the same place as it was
before (though, actually, when Willy will got to the surface, he
won't even see his ship - it will be miles away from him). I
suppose, that you have to insert a special plot in the "history of
the game" that this ship is out of fuel or something and it can't
move anymore.

As you can see by some of the rooms, the ship is anchored. This
explains why it is not moving, I suppose. Now, I'm not sure how the
anchor's chain is long enough to reach the ocean floor in the middle of the ocean, but does it really matter? :-)

Oops, sorry, I haven't seen that room yet =)
