Subject: Post-Comp Release of A Night Guest
I'm glad to announce the release of the post-comp version of my game A
Night Guest, where "comp" stands for Interactive Fiction Competition
2001 (!!!).

Blurb for those who didn't play the original game (if you DID play it
and still remember what it is about, please scroll down a bit to see a
more appropriate blurb):

A few testimonials:

Here we have a few bad verses with some IF squeezed into the gaps.
Nice try.

Stephen Bond

Extremely short, and not interesting.

Andrew Plotkin

> GUESS VERB. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G.

Billy Harris

Wonder how a game like this managed to end up somewhere in the upper
half of the IF-Comp? This is your chance to find out!

==================================

Announcement for those who played it:

The fundamental change in comparison with the original version are the
footnotes. Now, the author can communicate to the players directly,
instead of depending on the mediation of a drunken lord.

The game has been recently uploaded to ftp.ifarchive.org/if-archive/
unprocessed/ng11.zip, and should be soon (or already has been, for
that matter) moved to its permanent location at ftp.ifarchive.org/if-
archive/games/tads/ng11.gam.

Enjoy!

Actually, it landed in ftp://ftp.ifarchive.org/if-archive/games/tads/ng.gam

(The file has been renamed by the IF-Archive maintainers).

Sorry for the inconvenience.
