Dink Arena v1.5b turns out to be v1.5. What's wrong?
I downloaded v1.5b by Bunniemaster, and although the zipfile says it's v1.5b I get v1.5 by Kanter.



Version v1.5 by Kanter gives me indeed v1.5 by Kanter and v1.5g by Dan Walma gives me indeed that one.



So what happened to Bunniemasters version?

Wow... I messed up big time.



Actually, you're a bit wrong... both v1.5 and v1.5b are Bunniemaster's version.



I must've screwed up back in November 1999, during the move to Telefragged (our host before RPGPlanet).  They are dated November 28 and November 29, and I posted a news item on November 30th saying all D-Mods were uploaded.  Somehow, I must've renamed v1.5b to v1.5 or something... dang.



In any case, I will probably remove v1.5 and v1.5b, now that multiple authors are now supported in the database.

Hmmmm... Does that also mean you are going to just remove Skeleton B when i release Skeleton E, say both I and Snyder were the authors, and put another basic skeleton there if there comes a better one? (stupid sentence. ;))

The readme-files of both v1.5 and v1.5b state that Kanter is the author, so that would mean the readme's are wrong too... And then the reviews would be messed up too, because the reviewers refer to v1.5 as Kanter being the author and to v1.5b as Bunniemaster being the author.

So I'll wait then until only 1 version is available. That makes more sense to me too, since all 3 files are exactly the same - apart from the Interface that is in v1.5g.

Yep, you're right... kinda.  See, the only changes Bunniemaster did to the original Dink Arena was to add the Boomerang and Nightmare spells.  He left the readme et al alone.
