Some of us may actually like those children, have you thought of that. One man's meat is another man's poison, remember?

I resemble that remark!! Well not the elderly, but the ugly ones! You better be careful, or I'll....I'll be on you like a spider monkey!! Yeah, that's what I'll do.

Well that's perfect - you can selectively breed elderly children in your village!

I will breed a village of pinks and a village of blondes, and see what else I can come up with. God I hope VV2 has pink hair again.

All ofthis genetics stuff is making me wonder if vv2 is going to have a species button...

I like the title. "The Lost Children" - quite dramatic sounding. Can't wait until it's finished.

So will we finally discover who the eyes belonged to before the boulder was removed?

I STILL THINK THAT THE GOLDEN CHILD WAS THE KEY TO ALL THE PUZZLES.WITHOUT THE GC THERE WOULDN'T EVEN BE A SECOND GAME. BECAUSE HE IS THE REASON THE CAVE WAS EVER FOUND.HE MOVED THE STONE.THE GC WAS A COUPLE OF THE 16 PUZZLES.HE WAS A BIG PART OF ISOLA.HE WOULDN'T JUST DISAPPEAR.WOULD HE GROW UP AND LOSE HIS POWERS? WHAT WILL THE EXPLANATION BE ABOUT HIS DISAPPEARANCE?WE KNOW THAT ANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT DISAPPEARED WILL EVENTUALLY BE FOUND BECAUSE THE CAVE PROVES THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ISLAND.I UNDERSTAND THAT ONCE THE GC FINISHES THE PUZZLES HE'S SUPPOSE TO. REALLY MAKES HIMSELF WORTHLESS.AT THE END OF THE GAME WE HAVE ALL OUR TECHNICAL SKILLS,SO WITH 90 VILLAGERS ALL THE GC IS GOOD FOR IS RUNNING AROUND WITH THE YOUNGER KIDS AND PICKING MUSHROOMS.GRANTED HE DOES KEEP THE GARDEN AND THE BERRY BUSH FULL ALONG WITH THE FOOD BIN.BUT LIKE I SAID THE VILLAGERS CAN DO IT ALL NOW.BUT I STILL WANT TO KNOW HOW WILL HE BE DISPENCED OF?GROW UP AND DIE LIKE THE REST OR WHAT?

Are you shouting at all of us?

Nobody ever said that the GC was going to disappear or be disposed of. As Arthur has already said, the next chapter of Virtual Villagers is about two people who find their way through the cave. The GC stays where he is with the rest of the villagers. Somebody has to help take care of them.

WHAT! That stupid GC can just make food whenever he wants too! ARRGGG! Hate him! Hate him!.............Ahhh......Im ok. but to get to the point of this post, about how long does beta testing take?

So far testing is going very well. Everyone stay calm! And dont' forget to vote for us in the Zeeby awards at http://www.gamezebo.com while you wait.
