Standard Release (he he he)

Hey, guys:

Since you've all been so supportive of my attempts to create new levels, I want to, um, reward your encouragement and great ideas by, er, immortalizing you by using your screen names in my campaign. I'm writing this to ask for your permission to do just that. If anyone wants to be left out, that's fine, and there will be no hard feelings. Why, you ask, would anyone not want such an honor? Well...

1) You do NOT get to choose which unit your name will be attached to. Once you see the level this will make perfect sense.

2) The association of your name with this unit will NOT be complementary--you're not going to be a brave and noble zerk captain, for example. This is not meant to be a reflection of you at all, merely a kind of in-joke that probably only Asylumers will ever get (and I can't guarantee you'll find it funny). If that doesn't make any sense: would you object to a swineherd with your name on it? That's not the unit I have in mind, but it's on about the same level...

3) Anyone who plays the game will be required to kill you in effigy to complete the mission. Well, I suppose they could be exceptionally nice and let you live, but the path of least resistance is going to lead right through your shovel-smoten corpse.

4) If I end up hurting your feelings with this level it will make us both cry, and I don't want that. This is meant as a kind of off-color tribute and if you aren't prepared to take it that way it would be better that it never happens.

5) The money is terrible ;)

If the above intrigue you rather than worry you:

Just post here or email me directly saying you want in. If I get too many positive responses, some names may need to be cut (which is not meant as any kind of reflection of who my "friends" or "enemies" are, merely that there can only be so many units on a given level), but I'll do my best to include everyone who wants in. Everyone who regularly posts to the Asylum is eligible--but if I don't recognize your name, I'm afraid you probably won't make the final cut. Oh, and Silicon Dream is going in whether he likes it or not (joke).
