The way the script in that room works is: when its run is is passed an integer if its >7 it stops, otherwise it displays one of the 7 different scenes depending on the integer. Can you remember what line triggers one of them? We might be able to see what triggers the others but we need to track down the script number first and that's easier if I can search for a particular bit of dialog.

There's 7 possible headlines according to the game script. I've attached an animation of them: "Rash of Cow Tipping Baffles Police" ..."Triangular Man Spotted at Scene" "Froofroo Emerald Stolen!"..."Circular Prints Left Behind" "Tentacle Rescues, Returns Emerald"..."Mayor Congratulates Purple Hero" "Purple Tentacle is Man of the Year"..."Tentacle Visits White House" "Tentacle to Run as GOP VP"..."Helms `Miffed`" "President Ailing-- Tentacle Steps In"..."`I'm in Charge Here`" "Tentacle Amends Constitution"..."Humans Now Slaves" I dont see the Rush Limbaugh text unless its changed in the remastered version, I'm looking in the classic cd one here.

I would guess Tamlynn Niglio. In the Article Aric says "we selected the Rapp Scalion resurrection scene to record. We took the game scripts and made a list of all of the lines of dialog, and Tamlynn set about recording and editing these."

All the speech extracted from the prototype can be found here. There's plenty that you don't hear ingame. As I said in the article you'd have to skip rooms to check if speech plays anywhere else but I don't think they do. Did anyone else try it or indeed try the windex stuff?

You probably underestimate the nerdiness of Mojo readers. I think a book about Monkey Island with an amazing Purcell cover would be a must buy for many of us even if we knew everything that was in it. I really hope it does get translated into English.

Everyone is entitled to your opinion so long as you choose The Devil's Playhouse. Its an absolute masterpiece. One of the best adventure games ever.
