Yeah, maybe I gave the wrong impression - I was simply reinforcing the fact that the screenshots were manufactured. Alot of "evidence" has been presented to support the fact that the game was a hoax - which I'm leaning towards slightly - but it would be unfair of me to say that it WAS a hoax, as Duff does seem to have been giving constant updates. Apparently he's a Year 11 student at Xavier, and if I was in his position, I would have probably had more delays as I'm a lazy crap! But yeah... I'm not too optimistic.

Don't tell me what I noticed. That's the only part that you erred. Why would I point out anything else? 8-)

Well if it's a hoax then why got through the trouble of setting all thi sup and releasing a previous version that only had a few bugs and no players?

The bugs in the f**king screenshots are so obvious now.. Note how on the right it says for the ING Cup, 22-26? 4 days? Plus it says Vic vs. SA, and the points are NSW and Vic. And note in the middle how it says NSW won by an innings and 88 runs? NSW had a 2nd innings. Unlikely scores:

Victoria 223 a.o. (Moss 123, Harvey 56, MacGill 4/103)
NSW 542 a.o. (Thornely 69)..

etc.

Plus it says, "Team Rating: 8 stars", but if you count the stars next to his name there are 7.

Those were early screenshots before the game was even coded.

May I refer you all to this thread. I am truly sorry.

My mistake.. hopefully you also read that I wasn't fully doubting you, but yeah I was being quite a pessimistic ******.. so sorry for that. Just unfortunately all signs did point to the game not being authentic and I was just leaning towards that.

Well. Hopefully you do finish it, and release it, and it lives up to it's expectations...

Alright.. I think you should be optimistic rather than cynical.. Whether you think he's lying or not. If you do support him - only 2 things can happen. i) He releases it, you have given him the support he deserved through it or ii) It was a scam. You swallow your pride and admit it was a hoax, no harm done.

If you are cynical from the outset, 2 things could happen.. i) He releases it, despite the fact you've been calling it a scam, and you feel like an idiot. ii) You said it was a scam, and it was a scam. Well done... have a cookie. Nothing gained?
