Oh, NOW YOU'VE DONE IT! 
>I don't think I mentioned it on here; are you stalking me?

I was linked to your Debian Games consideration message/thread. It was being spread around on other sites and a lot of people found it quite funny how seriously you took it and how objectively you treated the whole thing considering what the game ultimately entails. I then recognised your email address and realised it was you! From the outside it looked like you were being trolled which seems to be the conclusion of many.

Having a look for it again shows that your exchange with Nils exploded and become something of a major argument among other Debian people which is quite unfortunate. The obvious problem with it is that this sort of thing ultimately becomes an emotive issue for many, rather than a consideration as to whether or not something meets the criteria for inclusion.

I did actually finish it with both "good" and "bad" endings (I didn't get 100% though) after the English translation came out. A lot of the dialogue and the puns don't make sense in English though. I talked about it in #dinksmallwood at the time I played it and tried to get skorn to play too but he wasn't up for it. I have a feeling that playing UAB is illegal in Australia and that I will be going to jail soon after making this post.

In case you didn't know, a lot of the in-game characters (including the girls) are based upon real people. In fact Maja is based upon a Dutch girl called Mara Groen/Green who was stalked earlier in the year (probably not because of UAB though). Incidentally it's her 14th birthday today.
