No, I'm not joking, I'm really running for congress, TN's fifth district, representing Nashville. I know I'm not the most active poster here, especially lately, but I still thought there might be some interest.
Check out www.collings2010.com if you're interested.

Wait until your opposition reveals the scandal that you post on obsolete forums on the INTERNET and ruins your credibility.

I'm just a guy who's always loved Dark Forces. I remember spending a good bit of time trying to do level editing, I had grand visions of a mod to translate Mega Man into 3d, before giving up because the engine wouldn't support the sector sizes I wanted, and it was just so much detail work and I simply wasn't patient enough. I did manage to hack together a working version of DF on my Mac using a PC copy and the Mac demo, which is probably my proudest DF-related achievement. I also spent some time trying to do simple hacks to the logics, but that went nowhere fast.
So I've been around the community a while. Just as more a hanger-on than a contributor, sadly. And like everyone, I'm super-excited about DarkXL. And since I am a member of the community, even if a peripheral one, I thought that my campaign might be of interest to some. I'm not trying to spam, I promise.

Cool, sorry I'm just not sure who is who anymore as some people seem to have changed their screen names.
The best of luck going for congress. I don't know much about that, but I did see 'Mr. Smith goes to Washington' before. Is that the kid of thing you'd be doing?

Too bad I don't live in your state, otherwise I'd be willing to throw a vote your way.
If you get elected, any chance of authoring the "Dark Forces Historical Preservation Act"?
Anyway, in all seriousness, good luck with your efforts.

We should so start a secret society. We could all get elected and take over the world. We'd be like the Illuminati, but our New World Order is centered around Dark Forces...
There's a guy at my job who spouts conspiracy theory crap all the time. Good luck on your running man.

It's not a coincidence that people who believe conspiracy theories like that are all morons. I have a friend that believes all that nonsense , and he is the biggest waster I know.

Why is it that conspiracy theorists love to talk about how the people behind the conspiracies have no problem with killing anyone who tries to reveal the truth, yet the conspiracy theorists never worry that those same alleged conspirators would silence them too, if they really existed?
If I ever thought there was a real conspiracy enacted by murderous conspirators, the last thing I'd want to do is make enough noise for them to find me and kill me in an "accident" that just happens to kill me, my family, my friends, and anyone else who happened to be within a 1 mile radius of my position at the time.

There's no need for a conspiracy anyway - people are openly raping the planet and it's manipulating it's people for their everything they're worth. There's nothing secret about it. Watch the news.

No way. Is this an admission of guilt? Well as long as we're revealing alter ego's and secret identities, I admit it: I am Mattias Welander. But not just me, sometimes it was Lionel, Geoffrey, Fenwar or Fish. We created him to vent our European indignation at ye yankee bastards.
Ye filthy liar! I will not fall for your tricks again. My secret informant (who I will for all future instances refer to as DEEP-MINES) has told me beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are also Jeff Walters, Scapegoat, Jereth Kok, AND Patrick Haslow/Matt Hallaron. You have been secretly manipulating us to your will by providing us with succulent Dark Forces level! We will resist you!
...so when you gonna release something cool again?

Can one conspire with oneself? What is the meaning of is?
