Now I will finally let the great secret out of the bag! MaG writes the walkthroughs and then the game developers create their games following them step by step. Sorry Marita, I just couldn't resist. thumbsup

Honestly MaG Thanks for all the work you do for us. I don't know what we'd do without you!!!! bravo praise

Warm Regards,

Barry

This is a thread that is well deserved. MaG, you've made adventure gaming so much more pleasant for hundreds, maybe even thousands - and I am one of them. Thank you so much for making so many excellent walkthroughs & hosting so many here at GB. You've made a substantive addition to the entire genre with this! I mean it!


Susan thanks

MaG, ever thought of branching out from writing WTs to writing game plots? MaG and some other forum members could help developers create good games. The other time someone invented a thread to have everyone contribute to a story, so I know there are good story writers here on this board.

Thanks so much, MaG. You have the patience of a saint! Your genius is mind boggling. We all really do appreciate what you do for us. It's so rewarding to get through a game on your own, but thank heavens, for your WTs, when that's just not possible.
You really are the best!

Thank You MaG :Praise: I second or third everything said. Without your walkthroughs to peek at every now and then I think I would still be lost in the land of Myst! :LOL: A BIG thank you for ALL you do!!

Well, I've been Googling for the secret of MaG MaGic and was always redirected back here.

MaG, I remember when I first joined and saw you listed as Admin; thought you must be someone important but didn't realize at first how important you are; not only to the site but to all the Boomies.
Kudos to you and many thanks.

I never thought about this before. Just took it for granted that MaG was the supreme adventure game player and always just whizzed through them. Even if she sometimes needs help she has to be exceptional to play all these games and write all the walkthroughs that have saved my sanity many times over!!!! Thanks MaG for being here for all of us!

Gracias, mi amigos y mi amigas.

I don't have the imagination to write plots. lol

Trippy - That's funny - I don't think my secrets can be googled. I sure hope NOT.

Glad to help the adventure gamers of the world. Although I haven't heard from the North and South Pole. Come to think of it - none from the South Seas either. laugh

Oh Mag, I don't know what I would do without all your help. I really appreciate all that you are and all that you do! I can't get through a game without one of your walkthroughs. BTW, are you finished the new Nancy Drew yet? I get my game Oct 2nd...LOL!!

Thanks, you are the best!

Well Im not sure if the Philippines qualifies for "South Seas" but here I am, and you richly deserve all the allocades. You add a whole new dimension to Adventure gaming. Thanks!

I see "South Seas" has checked in to thank MaG. lol North and South Poles are probably on their way too.

MaG: Just admit it, your walkthroughs really do spread joy and gratitude to the far corners of the world.

Thank you everyone. hearts

Glad that I can help and get motivated - especially during the times that I pound my head trying to write a shorter, clearer step by step for a slider puzzle (which I just did 30 minutes ago).

Santa told me to tell you thanks a lot for making the sacks heavier with all the games that people will buy since you write walkthroughs for them. Does that count? devil

Sure! But Santa said you've been such a very good girl this year that he has an elf suit waiting for you, and you can tell him up close and personal. Frankly I wish he would make these suits black, they'd be much more flattering! laugh wave

I agree with Nickie:without MaG's walkthroughs I would have given up gaming long time ago, hence the gaming business would have lost one of major spender in the bunch...
Grazie MaG! kissy

I am sick of games I cannot play. The puzzles are hard, and you don't get any fun from a game. Zork Nemesis, now that was a game. MaG if you contact any game makers, a new Zork would be greatly appreciated. I have not found one game in the last forever, that even comes close. Another Dracula would be nice if it was like the first two. How do you get "good", playable games anymore. I get tired of constantly asking for help. It makes me look stupid, and it only bothers you. And I do agree, your help with walkthroughs is beyond belief.

I don't think I would still be playing and buying (way to many)games if I hadn't found Mag and Gameboomers. I would be like reading a book and finding pages missing, if I didn't have Mag's walkthrough's to help me out.

Thanks again Mag.

And hugs to you MaG! hearts

I just don't know how you do all that you do! To produce so many wonderful walkthroughs so quickly that take time, attention to detail & dedication to produce & you still fit in posting on hints, answering E-mails etc. You are an amazing lady! smile

The secret is she is an Angel sent to Gameboomers forum to keep all of us mortals from going insane trying to figure out puzzles that make absolutely no sense or you need to be a genius to figure them out. I am of the rank and file that look at your WT first to see if it is a game I want to buy. I use a WT for every game I play, no stress...lolol. Thank you MaG for your kindness, consideration, cooperation, and patience. Eileen smile
