The worst possible thing has happened! I went back in time to when my first time machine was nicked, and there was Grey Key, waiting for me. But I was prepared for him, since I knew he'd be there, so I distracted him with a custard pit to the face, then I hit him with my copy of The Ten Thousand Best Spectrum Games (an excellent book, detailing many of the best Spectrum games ever), knocking Grey Key out. Trouble is, he fell against my first time machine, knocked it against my second time machine (the one I'd just arrived in), and they both started up! I threw Grey Key out of the way, but was too slow to get out of the danger zone myself, and the temporal electro-nuclear-quazar-tachion powered overlay enveloped me, and shot me back (forward) to this moment in time (well, a couple of hours before I now started to type this).
Well, my first thought was to build another time machine, to go back in time to stop the temporal electro etc thing from happening, but my spare Loki was missing, and I need the ULA from that to power my time machine! So I went down to the shops to buy one, but they weren't selling them. In fact, no shop in the area had even heard of a Sinclair Loki! Everywhere I went said the Spectrum range ended with the +3 (whatever that is). No one had heard of a Sinclair Loki. But they'd all heard of a crappy thing called a Commodore 64 (whatever that is), and more rubbish like the Commodore 128, plus four, etc. Turns out some company called Commodore had started making computers (well, that's what Commodore called them) in the 1980s. And to my amazement and horror Spectrums had stopped being made in the early 1990s, and in fact Sinclair got bought out by Amstrad (Amstrad! :-o:-o:-o) sometime in the 1980s!
How has this happened?
And without the Sinclair Loki to cannibalise I can't build another time machine! So now the Spectrum isn't made any more, the games machine market has been flooded by some crappy Commodore machines, and I'm stuck without time travel. How can things get any worse?
I'm off to play Renegade 3, that amazing classic. Never fails to stagger me how great that game is, and it's no wonder it's always voted the number one game ever, in every Spectrum poll.
I think I've lost my memory, I can't remember anything that has happened in the past hour, all that I know is that I have a huge bump on my head, and there is a gaping hole in my living room wall, I just seem to keep hearing an evil laugh and that is all !:-o
Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........
Still woozy, but I have to type this, to warn you all. Listen to me, it's bad. Really bad.
I, I'd just loaded up Renegade III, and was a appalled at how bad it was (what happened? It was fantastic in the earlier time line, somehow it's been changed in the timelines) when I heard a noise behind me, and I turned to see me, me! Turns out it was an evil version of me, created by the temporal electro-thingy. I was the good half, we'd been split into two people, me and him. Well, while I was staring in shock, my evil twin belted me over the head with my chair, and whilst I lay groggily on the ground, he nicked my source code disc for the emulator I was writing (called Spectrum Perfection Ultra Demonstration), and said he'd be releasing that, and also said "And I'm changing my name, from now on I shall be called.... Carry Gal" (I think that's what he said). Then he said "Wha-..." and faded off, as the effects of the temporal electro-wave thing gave one last burp and carried him off into the past.
So now there's an evil twin of mine in the world. And he knows my WOS password, so he can even post things here under my name and I'd get the blame for anything bad. Please, if anyone can identify him, then let me know. I don't know at what point in time he'd have materialised in, only that it's before now - it could be minutes, it could be years.
But whoever he is, he's got my emulator, called Spectrum Perfection Ultra Demonstration. Or as I called it for brevity, SPUD. And he's calling himself Carry Gell, or Caring Hell, or kar in Gel. I dunno. But I suspect he'll be in contact again.
The talking custard pie in my living room says that someone calling himself Garin kal did something similar to Rubberkeys and posted things on his account just to discredit him when it transpires that he is the true king of Scotland, then his murky past is dredged up about WOS. He has his crown and scepter taken away and he is made to wear a colander and carry a mop !
Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........
People keep on asking me how I managed to appear in the film Doctor No, made in 1962, when I wasn't actually born until 1970. I keep on saying "That's not me, that's Sean Connery", but they don't believe me, as I look so much like that now.
The time travelling Penguin says " The answer is a Fish "
Well that is odd, because he popped into my living room yesterday and said "The answer is Bob Hoskins wearing a tutu"!?!?!?
And then Jeremy Irons appeared, and he and the Penguin wandered off holding hands/flippers and chatting about holes appearing in the ground everywhere.....
