    ... This is even more difficult since it VS crashes several times a day and you have to restart the game from the last checkpoint...

        Tried it - crashed after I met the first enemy.* Sums it up pretty accurately : Accountants are all good and nice until the first trouble arise. *Have a german version of Excel. I doubt any American MBA candidate accountant thought about localization - at least these makes three reasons why they would not.

          Ha ha - my first program ever (literally) compiled and ran correctly the first time. It was FORTRAN, and I summed the numbers from 1 to 10 and printed the result (not that trivial in FORTRAN). Whenever I learn a new language, this is my own personal canonical first program. So I don't ever do "Hello world" you see. Maybe that is why I am a software developer, not a programmer.

          My first program ever was written in assembler and worked perfectly the first time. When the results came rattling back over the teletype it consisted of just a single character, "4". Guess what the program did!

                  Are you sure it's a Canadian accountant? Sounds more like a Cypriot one to me... :suss:

                    Game? Game? Programming was serious stuff back in the Bronze Age! We didn't have no stinkin' games!
