He could tell you, but then he would have to kill you.

Only thing I know about him, is that I wish he would mark what changes he makes to the update post, so that I dont have to go through the entire list of hacks each and every time, trying to figure out which ones have been added...


Title: Re: Dr Boris
Post by: Meek_Monkey on 2005 September 27, 00:08:34
where do you get the fixed ones? or is that a silly question.

The close relationship between Doctor Boris and JM is a god send for folks who have NL, apparently.

As everyone knows, JM will not receive Nightlife for 6 to 8 weeks, due to all of the security procedures he takes with his mail.

Doctor Boris, on the other hand, has a copy of NL and is able to communicate with JM and also post on the board about updates to JM's hacks.  Whether Boris is updating the hacks or JM is updating the hacks, I think that depends on whether you took the blue pill or the green pill.

 :P

If you RTFM you'll see Dr. Boris is the other half of Flying Fish Systems (FFS).


Title: Re: Dr Boris
Post by: Motoki on 2005 September 27, 02:48:34
If he's the other half then who is Draklixa? I could swear I remember Pescado making vague reference to others in the plural sense in the past, but I have no idea if they are other FFS people, testers, friends, multiple personalities. It's all very mysterious.  8)

FFS stands for Flying Fish Systems? Ack. I always thought it stood for "For Fuck's Sake". You know, For Fuck's Sake Mods...

That's how I always read it, regardless of what I 'know' it really stands for!

I see what FFS is.

But please, what in the world does RTFM mean?

I decided to go over to urbandictionary to find out.

I think Pescado is Italian or Spanish for fish, so it sort of makes sense I suppose.

I have heard a rumor about who Dr. Boris really is. I'm dying to know if it's true. But, as they say, curiousity killed the cat, so I'll just leave that one alone.

That too. It's an in-joke amongst the staff. All two of us. It was either that, or "Fat Obstreperous Jerks", but that got shot down.

Darn, I was leaning towards multiple personalities. But MPs always talk about their other personalities like they're real people, don't they?

LOL Brynne.  If that is true, Dr. Boris probably has to "paws" a lot when he's playing!

The latter. Also, I'd like to make sure the EA tracking number associated with every game is as mutilated as it can possibly be. If they discover that my copy was originally purchased in Kazakhstan, it'll complicate their efforts that much more.

So . . . you have to have it shipped to multiple obscure countries to throw off anyone trying to use your mail to find you?

Or do you want to make sure that EA can't find you?
