> Nepenthe: This is in reference to a response you did on the Boards about how the person who knows how I was biting my tongue something fierce when I made that post, because at the time the form had been coded and waiting for around two months. For a while (as I understand it) Hiff and Zulg kept missing each other and then Hiff up and disappeared. But you know what? It did take some time. Some of us work long hours and just plain don't have a few hours in a row to throw together on something like that at the drop of a hat. I think the shifting setup is pretty cool and all but frankly I could use some of it as a "what not to do" style guide on writing clear code that other human beings can understand. Would it be much easier to do now again, sure. > While they may smite me for oversimplifying, adding a form most likely Psst. . .I don't know if you noticed, but basically every form additionally has some special attack, defense, or neat thing it does. Some of those are harder than others.

I don't know if a role can even be dug up at this point, but I'll have a look.
