CHAPTER 1) REVISION HISTORY / UPDATES
========================================================================
Saturday, December 4th, 1999 (Version 2.0):
--------------------------------------------
= I have returned, and gave this guide an enormous make-over. Consider
it an early Christmas present...
Tuesday, March 9th, 1999 (Version 1.5):
-----------------------------------------
= I changed the font from Courier to Courier New. Makes a big
difference, eh?
???????????? (Version 1.0):
-----------------------------
= First version released.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 2) IMPORTANT LEGAL INFORMATION
========================================================================
This FAQ can only appear on the following sites:
- GameFAQs
- Cheat Code Central
- GameSages
- A scant few others I have given permission to. Don't worry about them.
Why? Because those are the only three sites that can keep my FAQs
updated. GameFAQs gets away with murder, though, on account of the fact
I send my FAQs there myself. Gamesages is GameFAQs sister site, so they
share information. Cheat Code Central is great, because they always seem
to have the most updated version without me having to tell them. Great
job, guys and gals.
I just hate it when people have outdated versions of my FAQs, because I
get loads (e.g. 100+) of e-mails telling me to "update my FAQ" even
though it IS updated, or they ask a question that has been answered in
the new versions, or make additions that are already there, etc., etc.
I've had problems with this with other FAQs, and I'm taking steps (e.g.
this note) to put an end to it!
Here are a few "do's" and "don'ts". Webmasters! Take note...
WEBMASTERS! DO NOT:
------------------------
Post this FAQ on your site directly. The only sites that this rule DOES
NOT apply to are GameFAQs, GameSages, and Cheat Code Central, as shown
above.
WEBMASTERS! PLEASE DO:
------------------------
If you are a webmaster of a site that wants to post this FAQ, what do
you do? As you read above, you can not post it directly. Instead, link
to the page at www.gamefaqs.com that lists all the FAQs for this game.
Why GameFAQs? Because I said so. To clear up some confusion, you can not
link to the URL if it ends in ".txt" or ".doc", you just can't use that.
If it ends in anything else, such as the page where it lists all the
FAQs for a game, you can link to THAT, but not to the actual FAQ. I'm
only repeating myself, but I had to because some people have to be told
something twice. If you have any questions on linking, notify me. To
answer the most common question I'll get, you can not link to any
GameFAQs URL that ends in ".txt" or ".doc" because it's in GameFAQs'
legal section. So there.

CHAPTER 3) INTRODUCTION
========================================================================
From the get go there are six battle courses available, some good, some
bad. After finding 120 gold cards in Adventure Mode (see my Adventure
Mode walkthrough for help on that momentous task) four more will appear,
and they're definitely worth the trouble.
Each player will start in a corner of the screen, their objective is to
kick ass!...basically. You must use your infinite amount of bombs to
kill everyone else, and in a certain mode, the other team's gems.
Sometimes the winner is decided at the beginning, other times at the
end. Sometimes a match is over in 5 seconds (according to the timer at
least), while others will last all of the way into over-time.
Short section, I know.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 4) CONTROLS & MOVES
========================================================================
LAYING BOMBS:
To lay a bomb press A, if you can set another then you can tap it to lay
many bombs at once, but that is determined by bomb items.
PICKING UP BOMBS:
Lay a bomb and then get close to it, press B and Bomberman will lift it
over his head.
BOMB LIFT:
Press A and B together and a bomb will automatically appear in your
hands.
THROWING BOMBS:
Press B to throw a bomb, but how far it goes depends on how far you push
the control stick.
WALKING/RUNNING:
If you somehow forget, it's the control stick.
PICKING UP PEOPLE:
If someone is knocked out, you can pick them up like a bomb, you can
throw them too!
KICKING BOMBS:
The quickest way is to lay a bomb and press B while it's 'under' you.
You'll also kick a bomb if you run into it and press B.
PUMPING UP BOMBS:
Pick up a bomb, or bomb lift it, just get one in your hands. Tap the A
button and the bomb will get larger, keep doing this until this until a
yellow flash appears, now it's a pumped up bomb! You can't throw it as
far, but it won't matter, the end explosion will be huge. Once a pumped
up bomb is on the ground, no one can pick it up or kick it.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 5) OPTIONS
========================================================================
MAIN SCREEEN:
Single Battle - You against everyone else
Team Battle - Just like it reads, you can form teams and make them go
against each other. The objective is to blow up the others
team's gems.
Options - See Options Screen.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SINGLE AND TEAM BATTLE: 1st screen
Here you can configure everyone to either CPU (computer controlled) or a
real player. Black is controller 2, Red is 3rd, Blue is 4th, and White
is one. The blue marks stand for the CPU's A.I., 1 is weak and three is
smart. You can also select your custom Bombermen here!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
TEAM BATTLE: 2nd screen
You can select teams. The blue gem team is at the top, the red gem team
is at the bottom. It can be one against three, two against two, you name
it, they got it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTIONS SCREEN:
Battle - This is how many battles you have in one course before you get
the trophy. You can have 1-5.
Time - There is a clock that ticks down, when it reaches 0:00 the battle
is over, unless someone wins before that. Time is 1:00 - 5:00 -
unlimited.
Sudden Death - If this is ON then the game will go into sudden death
when only 1:00 remains. In sudden death, something
happens to make the players even more frantic. Also,
ghosts disappear.
Ghost - Simple. When you die, you come back as a ghost. As a ghost, you
can bug the 'living' players. You can't lay or pump bombs, but
you can throw and kick bombs that the living have set. You can
also jump on a living player and control them for a few seconds,
here you can do anything you could when you were alive! This is
a great way to have revenge. If you get blown up as a ghost, you
will return in a few seconds.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 6) ITEMS
========================================================================
During battle you find items in destructible blocks, stones, or whatever
that level has. Here is what you find...
Flame Item: Collect this and your bombs will have a large radius when
they explode. It stops after five, though.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bomb Item: This lets you set one more bomb at once. For example, at
first you can only set two at once. Collect one and you can
set three at once, another one, four at once. You get the
idea. You can have eight max.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heart: This rare item will let you get hit one more time. When you do
get hit, it will fly out of you and bounce away. If you can get
it before it disappears then you can have it again! But it can be
difficult because someone else might snatch it up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Power Bomb: If you see this item, stop everything and run as fast as you
can to get it! This will make your bombs red. Red bombs make
giant blue explosions, depending on how many flames you
have. A pumped up, five flamed bomb can take out 1/4 (and
sometimes 1/2) of a battle arena! Just be careful not to
blow yourself up...which happens often.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evils: Evils are rare, they seem to appear when it gets close to 1:00.
This item will do something strange to everyone, but it will only
be one of the following...
1. The entire screen flashes with colors, disco is back!
2. Everytime someone picks up something, they automatically throw it
3. Everyone has five flamed red bombs
4. Everyone has black bombs, but they are really pumped five flame red
bombs!
5. People shuffle places at random, very strange.
6. Everyone five seconds, people get knocked out
7. A cyclone appears. If it hits you, you'll be thrown several feet.
Bombs will bounce off of it too!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skulls (Also Known as Plague): Like Evils, Skulls always do something
different. The only difference is that it
only happens to the person who picked it
up. BUT! If two players touch, the
disease will be transferred and the
original carrier will be free! You can
tell when this happens because you will
flash yellow for a short period of time.
1. Your Control stick gets messed up. The harder you push it, the slower
you go, and vice versa.
2. You can't lay bombs whatsoever.
3. Your black bombs are really five flamed red bombs
4. Your bombs explode in about two seconds, instead of five
5. Your Bomberman catches on fire, you can't lay bombs. If you touch
someone, they die. If you touch a bomb, you blow up.
6. You get really big, and really slow.
7. You get really small and really fast
========================================================================
CHAPTER 7) GENERAL TIPS AND TRICKS
========================================================================
SKULLS: TO GET OR NOT TO GET?:
If you see a skull, it is usually a good idea to get it. If you get
something bad, such as the messed up control stick or you can't lay
bombs, give it to someone else! Of course, they'll try to give it back
to you. They'll probably chase you, so just lay a bomb to block their
path. While their vulnerable, kick lots of bombs in their direction!
When they die, the disease does too!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A FIREMAN CHASE:
If a fireman (when someone is on fire) starts to chase you, they will
generally follow right behind you. Just drop a bomb, and they won't know
what hit them! Although, if the explosion is too big it may kill
you...but at least you got him! :)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
KILL A PERSON WITH ONE BOMB?:
Most stages have a place where you can through bombs and items off into
a cliff, right? Well, get someone next to one of them and kick a bomb
into them so they get knocked out. Take the chance, kick the bomb away
(so it won't kill you), pick up the person, and hurl him over the cliff!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
MORE PEOPLE THROWING:
If there are two other people duking it out with lots of bombs, and the
4th person is near you, try this: Knock him out, slide the bomb out of
your way, and throw the guy right into a pile of bombs! When they go
off, he'll be blown away!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
CORNER KILLING:
If there is a corner with walls, here is something neat to do. When the
person is right in front of it, kick a bomb at him to knock him out.
Kick a bomb at the first bomb really quick, and if you were fast enough,
he's bouncing on the 1st bomb! He'll be stuck, and get blown up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERWHELMING:
If you have a lot of bomb items, and there are lots of people by a wall,
just kick as many bombs as you can. Some pretty neat things might
happen!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT THE @#*)!?:
Sometimes, you can hide bombs! Like behind a pillar, a rock, a wall, or
something else. If you're ***really*** lucky, someone might get killed
because they didn't see it!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
BLOCKING THE PATH:
Some levels have multiple levels, connected with stairs and runways.
Well, if you're at the top level, and someone is coming up to you, kick
a bomb at them to knock them out. Throw a bomb behind them, now he's
stuck between two bombs and he has absolutely no where to go! Can you
say, "Bye bye"? If you're aim is good, you can do this from below, as
well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
BLOCKING BOMBS:
Pick up a bomb and don't throw it. If someone throws a bomb and it hits
the bomb, it will bounce off! You can knock people out with this, set up
traps, and anything else you can come up with!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS IS A DEAD END, BUDDY:
As long as no one disturbs you, this is an almost sure fire way to kill
someone. First, throw a pumped bomb and knock someone out, the bomb will
bounce off their head and land a few feet away. When they're about to
come to, kick a bomb. The pumped bomb will blow, and they'll be blasted
into oblivion.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
FENCED IN:
Kick a bomb at someone, and if you have a lot of bomb items, make a
circle of bombs around them while they're knocked out. They could kick
their way out, but they wouldn't have enough time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
POOL TABLE:
If you kick a bomb into a still bomb, the still bomb will go flying off.
So, here's what you can do with this small piece of knowledge: When
someone lays a bomb, wait a second, kick a bomb at it. So now, the 2nd
bomb is about to explode, so if anyone is near they will go bye bye.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
REVENGE IS SWEEEEEET:
When you come back as a ghost, hop on someone and you can control them
for several seconds. Lay a bomb, stay there, and he'll explode! Or, you
could drive him right into a pile of bombs, that always works.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
IT'S ALIVE I TELL YOU, ALIVE!!:
I'm running out of names here...Anyway, this is a really good way to
kill someone with one bomb, it's mostly useful in really open courses.
Lay a bomb, keep it 'under' you for about two seconds. Now kick it, it
will explode in about one second. So...anyone in your path is gonna be
tasting some fire, basically.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE SNAKE!:
In open areas, lay a bomb and then another near it. When the first one
explodes, run some more and lay another, it will explode, and a chain
reaction will occur, so keep laying bombs and a snake of fire will be
following you. Just don't let it kill you! This is useful for taking out
other people or blocks...duh.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 8) LEVEL SPECIFIC TIPS
========================================================================
LEVEL ONE: ROCK GARDEN
DESCRIPTION: An open field with a lot of rocks for getting items. There
are four large pillars, and one huge one in the middle.
- - - DEATHMATCH TIPS - - -
Your first priority is to find some items! So pump up a bomb and place
it where it will destroy the most blocks, you may even kill someone! If
you can, trap some people in the rocks because sometimes they'll be
killed because they have no where to go!
After all of the rocks are cleared, this level is extremely bland,
unless someone finds a power bomb item! With this, 1/4 of the level will
turn to fire, and with the help of others, 1/2! Dodging the kicked bombs
is an important skill, because it could blow up in your face.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Someone gets a power bomb on the opposing side, kill them! When you
first begin, everyone will be tossing bombs at the opponent's gems.
While that's happening, go and pick up your gem. If you're good, you can
throw the gem on one of the four pillars surrounding the one on the
middle. Now, unless someone puts a pumped up red bomb with five flames
by the pillar, your gem can't be touched! HAHA!
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
Rocks will rain from the sky. Don't even think about kicking bombs, just
lay them everywhere, dodge, and hope for the best. If you get hit by a
rock, you die.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL TWO: UP AND DOWN
DESCRIPTION: A large platform above water, it has several ramps and
staircases. The blocks are in the middle and there are two
to the side. You won't get very many items here.
- - - DEATHMATCH TIPS - - -
Kick a bomb to the two people who are facing you, if you hit someone
give them a barrage of bombs and maybe, just maybe, you'll kill them.
Drop down to the lower platform, and go to where all of the item blocks
are. Pump up a bomb, throw it in the center, and hope for a power bomb.
The item block place is the core of the level AND the action, as you
have little room to move and it will get very crowded. Your best hope is
to knock someone out, kick away any bombs that get in your way, and
throw them into the water. If you want to be sneaky, return to where you
started and drop down some bombs. :)
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Sometimes the gems will be hidden behind the platforms, so be sure to
bomb where you can't see. If you want to hide your gems from the CPU
players, put them on the upper sections, they'll have a tough time
getting up there.
---SUDDEN DEATH---
The water will start to rise, if you get under it you'll die. I'd
suggest going to the starting platforms because the water won't reach
you for awhile.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 3: PYRAMID
DESCRIPTION: My favorite level!! Whoohoo! The action is intense on this
little pyramid, because there is almost always a power bomb
item to find.
- - - DEATH MATCH TIPS - - -
When you start, kick a bomb or two into the crowd, because unlike other
levels everyone begins in a row. You can kill one, or even two people!
Pump up a bomb and throw it into the mass of blocks, clear it out with
little bombs and collect all of the items. This is where the action
takes place, so take note of where everyone is coming from so you can
plan your assault. Pump up bombs and throw them to one side and then run
up the stairs and out of there! If everyone is not dead by now, drop
down and kick all of your bombs at the people.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Keep your gems out of the item blocks, they _will_ be blown away. If you
want to trick the CPU, put your gem at the very tip of the pyramid,
they'll ignore it for about 30 seconds...! If you're gem appears in the
item blocks, get down there! If there are simply too many bombs to get
out, throw it over the cliff, it won't destroy it! It will be simply
warped somewhere else in the level.
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
The water will slowly rise, and the space to fight gets smaller, and
smaller, and...zzzzzz...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 4: GREEDY TRAP
DESCRIPTION: It looks like a donut. You start on the outside, and all of
the blocks are in the middle. You fall in, and the only way
to get out are a few staircases.
- - - DEATH MATCH TIPS - - -
The winner is decided in the first few seconds of the match. Whoever
gets a lot of bomb items and/or a power bomb WILL win, unless they suck
really bad. At first, everyone will scramble into the center. Instead,
pump up a bomb and throw it right in the center. If someone tries to
escape, hit them in the head with a well aimed, kicked bomb. Or you
could block the stairs with a bomb, by the time they move it aside the
'big bomb' would have slaughtered them. If anyone is left, not only are
they good, but they need to be killed! Pumped up a bomb and do the best
you can.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Throw the other team's gems right into the pit, because there will be so
many bombs there that, .
This is a place where throwing your gems out of harm's way is a must!
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
The walls will close in. If you touch a wall you will be killed,
actually, you are sucked into a world of infinite possibilities!!!
Sorry, but I'm tired. *sips coffee* Ah, much better. Where was I? Ah,
yes, walls. Well, you see, after a few seconds of the walls closing in,
you will have barely any room at all left to fight in, and reappearing
blocks are a leading cause of tooth decay (er...death).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 5: TOP RULES
DESCRIPTION: This takes place inside a castle. There are a scant few
items in the lower area, not worth the trouble of even
blowing them up unless you think you can get a power bomb,
which would be awesome, not to mention rare.
- - - DEATHMATCH TIPS - - -
Fall down and unload your bombs, if you can get a lot of bomb items then
great! Use some of the secrets from the general section. A good place to
hide bombs would be at the lower part of the screen where the wall is,
they won't know what hit 'em! If you get red bombs, go to the rafters
and let them rain down, everyone will go to their grave!! Muahahah.
Also, if you don't find anything worth value, pump up a bomb and get
below the rafters, when someone comes along, throw it at them! It's
really easy to do, and the Bomb will be bouncing on him to keep him
knocked out. He'll be dead in no time!
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
If you're against the CPU, hide the gem up on the rafters because they
won't go up to it after about a minute, it's really pathetic. :) If
there are 'real players', put it behind the wall where you can't see it,
because they prolly won't see it either.
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
The walls will close, and if you touch them you'll be killed. This gets
really frantic, because there usually won't be a winner until the walls
get really close together...gulp.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 6: FIELD OF GRASS
DESCRIPTION: A really big field of grass is in the middle, with item
rocks all over the place. The neat thing is, you can barely
see your bombs! The left and right sides are hills, that is
where most of the action will take place. Which hill is
usually up to the player (s).
- - - DEATHMATCH TIPS - - -
Use any and all of the general tricks, because this level is so open you
can do pretty much everything! If you find a red bomb, knock someone out
and plant a large one next to them...hehehe. This is the best stage in
terms of being able to throw people over the edge. When there are piles
of people on the hills, battling for their lives, unload as many bombs
as you can, and then top it off with a pumped bomb.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
To tell the truth, none really.
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
Rocks will rain down. Again, ignore everything and just avoid the rocks,
sooner or later someone will get killed by one...hopefully.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* * * SECRET LEVELS * * *
You may only get the following levels if you get 120 gold cards in
Adventure Mode. Good luck, you're going to need it!
Alternatively, you can also press start at the main screen in rapid
succession until you hear a chime, but it won't have saved, and it's
very difficult to do without a turbo controller.
* * * SECRET LEVELS * * *
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 7: IN THE GUTTER
DESCRIPTION: There are four small pillars surrounding a larger, central
one. Each Bomberman begins on one of the smaller ones, and
the middle one is home to a strange creature. When it faces
a direction (either left or right) the water will flow into
that direction, pushing you against the wall. Bombs and
Bombermen will flow with the water.
- - - DEATHMATCH TIPS - - -
If you want to be cheap, DO NOT get off your starting pillar! Now, you
can rain down bombs onto the people below, and they can't do anything
about it! Unless someone puts a pumped up red bomb with fire flame items
next to you, you're safe. Now, if you _do_ fall off then here's a few
things to protect yourself: If someone is on the same plane as you and
the water is flowing, kick a bomb at them. They will be knocked out and
both them and the bomb will go scuttling off into the wall where the
bomb will explode.
When the water flows, pretty much all of the players will line up
against the water. This is where things get dangerous, if you have
collected a lot of bomb items then you'll able to kick some @$$! This is
also a good place to throw people off the edge.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Unlike bombs and players, gems are not carried off with the water. So
out one behind the pillars, and everyone will have a hard seeing it!
Otherwise, just pick it up and throw it away from the bombs and do the
opposite with your opponents! :)
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
The walls will close in, and if you touch them, you die. But there is a
catch, the water will continue to push you near the walls, so avoid the
walls, the water, and the bombs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 8: SEA SICK
DESCRIPTION: A ship with two poles, a large center one, and a lot of
barrels with items, and I mean lots. The ship will sway
back and fourth, hence the name of the ship, which will
make it difficult to judge distances and such...sometimes.
- - - DEATH MATCH TIPS - - -
Your first priority is to move out of every else's range, so just hide
behind a pillar and throw lots of bombs at the barrels. If you get a
power bomb, which isn't rare, will almost guarantee a win. Nothing much
else to say, really.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
Hide your gems behind pillars...and...um....uh...that's it, actually.

Rocks will plummet from the sky.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 9: BLIZZARD BATTLE
DESCRIPTION: A large snow field with a lot of ice cones to break for
items. By the way, there will be a strong gust of wind, but
it's 100% unpredictable, and it's not just left and right,
it's up, down, and sometimes diagonally. Not only will you
be blown violently, but your bombs (as they travel through
the air) will also be affected. If you throw them against
the wind, it will come back and hit you in the head! If you
throw it with the wind, it will travel almost past the
entire arena!
- - - DEATH MATCH TIPS - - -
Use the wind to your advantage, this level is one big, wide open space,
use it to your advantage as well.
- - - TEAM MODE TIPS - - -
The levels are getting so bland, there are none to speak of.
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
There will be a big avalanche, although they should've made it a lot
better, not to mention faster. It's pretty similar to the way the walls
close in like the some of the earlier levels...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEVEL 10: LOST AT SEA
DESCRIPTION: Basically, a large open area with blocks in the middle, and
some posts. Except for the thin ring around the outside,
this level is really slippery and makes you slide around.
The main feature is the transparent floor that let you see
into the ocean, and several fish and other aquatic
creatures come you way.
- - - DEATH MATCH TIPS - - -
Throw lots o' bombs!!!
- - - TEAM MODE HINTS - - -
Hide the gems behind the posts...naturally.
- - - SUDDEN DEATH - - -
Rocks fall down from the sky, and it can hard to stop to avoid them
because everything is so slippery.

CHAPTER 9) CREDITS
========================================================================
COMPANIES
------------
Hudsonsoft: For making such an incredible and enjoyable game!
INTERNET SITES
-----------------
GameFAQs : A huge vault that holds all of my -- plus
hundreds of other's -- FAQs. Honestly, if you can't find help here,
you're just out of luck.
PEOPLE
---------
Jeff "CJayC" Veasey : For kindly accepting my
FAQs, and for making such a cool site.
========================================================================
CHAPTER 10) CONTACT INFORMATION
========================================================================
Feel free to contact the insane author of this FAQ, marshmallow, with
any e-mail, corrections, adorations, admonitions, praise, damnation,
condemnation, or death threats at: m_mallow@hotmail.com
Basically, there are five different types of e-mail I will receive on a
daily basis.
QUESTIONS:
------------
I will answer questions to the best of my ability, but not necessarily
immediately. Who knows...you may get an answer hours after sending it,
or maybe even weeks. Do not e-mail me telling me to "answer your
questions", unless you like to be ignored. Also, please realize that I
do have a real life outside the Internet.
School, friends, what have you. Hey, sometimes I might not even get on
the Internet for a few days if I pick up a hot new game that I enjoy.
If you ask a question that has been answered in the FAQ, I will most
definitely ignore it. If your question is poorly written (e.g. "Hez waz
up, dawg? Got mez uh q!") I will delete it.  Etc., etc...
PRAISE LETTERS:
-----------------
Hey, you mean people actually receive help from me and like to praise my
work? Believe me, though I may not reply to it, I do appreciate your
comments. Though, most people, if they praise me, do it along with a
question, in which I might reply something like, "Yeah, thanks for the
support. As for your problem..."
HATE LETTERS:
---------------
I've received very few of these, but it's happened. Chances are high
that I may not reply, but if you present a valid criticism, I may
acknowledge your critique. As for those less intellectual letters, heh,
they're always good for laughs.
JOB APPLICATIONS:
-------------------
Though I can assure you I will be flattered, I will *not* work for your
site exclusively (or even as a third party). I don't care how much
money, women, or drugs you offer me, either. No means no, okay?
CHAIN LETTERS:
----------------
No, I don't care about what kind of whore house your uncle runs. No, I
don't know who Louie is and why he has a fetish for panties. No, I don't
think a piano is going to mysteriously appear out of thin air and fall
on me if I don't send a piece of sh!t letter to other people. No, I
won't send you cash for a "dying" (yeah, right) kid who is infected with
brain cancer, though sometimes I wonder if YOU'RE the one with brain
cancer. No, I don't care about this new, amazing revelation about weight
loss (my muscle to fat ratio is quite normal, thank you very much). And,
finally, I will *not* make out with you!
I apologize for the aforementioned subjects, because they had some
questionable material. However, considering this is a FAQ for an E
rated game with copious amounts of explosions and anime-like characters,
I assume you will not be offended by a little sexual innuendo.
Sincerely,
marshmallow
