Clearly it will be: "I think I can live without that particular piece of junk."

I was thinking more of John Hancock shivering looking like this poor unfortunate soul. And... After 10 years, we all will finally be able to play the next game in the series by the original creators on September 16th. I'm talking of course about "Space Venture" from the makers of Space Quest. Undercutting some silly pirate adventure game release day by 3 days. But really, their Kickstarter campaign for Space Venture started over 10 years ago, and they spent the last two years on the Save-Load system if you were to take their spaced-out updates as any indication. While I've never played a Space Quest game beyond a few minutes, I did back their campaign. There have been plenty of backer complaints throughout the years. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/spaceventure/two-guys-spaceventure-by-the-creators-of-space-que/posts/3590050 I'm so happy that we haven't been dragged through ten years of a Kickstarter campaign to get our hands on another Monkey Island.

Have I got some news for you!! https://mixnmojo.com/news/Maniac-Mansion-Bonus-Track-aka-The-Sounds-of-SOMI-SE-Part-2#comments

Off the top of my head, when you meet up with your old crew from MI1 in EMI and have a discussion with them.

When do we get a version of MI 1 with all of the closeups of Guybrush replaced by photos of @Dmnkly ??

I didn't think any of the releases said anything but "Tuna Head". Interesting.

Has anyone captured the current website of ReMI/Stan for posterity... and for later republishing, like the old, interactive Mojo hint guides?

It's so pretty

I hear 25% of the games original dialog is down there...

You would be correct that @Trapezoid made the music and by all likelihood forgot his password here and is now @Trapezzoid https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/401/

As much as I love the CMI verb coin, I think it was Jake that brought to my attention that with Full Throttle you could still see through to where you clicked on. I do find that highly useful, so 10 points to Whatshisname.

Weren't there a bunch of sexy baritone @Dmnkly lines in EMI? Rated M for M-eow.

I believe the green skin was to show better the meteors influence over the Edisons. Also, I was about to pitch a (fake) snooty fit if you didn't mention Maniac Mansion Deluxe... but you did and I got myself all worked up for nothing.

Yeah, but it was rigged for Dead Cousin Ted... Couldn't help myself. I'll look through what I have.

No love for big-boned and thin-guy from CMI? They carefully resurrected LeChuck by meticulously tossing his hot voodoo shoes into the ships storage, along with a wished-for barrel of grog and a chicken. That's some powerful magic.

They forgot to reveal "the secret".

"Got any... 4's?" "No, go blow-fish."

Is this the original Devil's Playhouse artwork up for sale now? https://www.ebay.com/itm/265788988410

@OzzieMonkey I'm sorry but I haven't made time just yet to test your new-new MI2SE music tracks. I should really schedule some time for it.

Another mysterious package in the mail, courtesy of late-night Etsy purchases... Pictured: Substitute "Manny". I was hoping that the pins by CanvasQuestArt would be the appropriate sizes for this model. They're close, but as of right now they are too heavy to stand on their own. I'll get some standees if I'm feeling it. "Do you have a reserva.... Madre Dios! That's not the correct 'Blondebeard'!" You can get your own Blondebeards Chicken Shack Book Nook on Etsy.

MI 1 Special Edition: Toggle back to classic when doing the mugs of grog puzzle. With my wife, I introduced her to the series with CMI, but we started on Lite mode. After seeing how fast she was blazing through it but also missing out on some of the fun puzzles with humor and more storyline, I decided she needs to pause and start over. I also made thsee fill-in-the-blanks Insult Swordfighting papers for her to play along with and keep track of her progress.

Why can't the monkey head that was part of the robot not just be the "third" biggest monkey head that Guybrush has ever seen, conveniently also situated on Monkey Island? I mean, with so many giant monkey heads laying about it's no wonder they named the island after it...

(Futurama - Episode 2: "Moon Lander returned to this site by the Historical Sticklers Society". A similar plaque will be found within the head of the Giant Monkey Head.

More CMI treasure!

Hmm, but Craig Derrick is aware of their shirt sale and retweeted their announcement.
