Apolyton isn't in the credits of the game

[Allard HS]

Always a bit of a disappointment..

Neither is anybody else mentioned who is known to me. Except for Harlan Thompson, who is credited under "Additional Scenario Design".

Did the word "Apolyton" not get mentioned anywhere in the manual at all? Gee that's a shame, maybe they bundled us with "the fans of CTP1 worldwide". I'm so proud when they do that, all I have to do is be a "fan" of the game and I can consider myself a major decision maker in the game's development

Allard, what do you think the "A" means in the "A-Team"?

[Builder]

Like they couldnt print 7 more letters...

actually, that was the name the team itself decided...

Allard,
Well, that means that you never visited the CtP forums very often 'cause the A-Team has some pretty important CtP people in it: Nordicus, WesW, skorpion59, Harlan, to name just a few. (Don't have a copy yet so I'm not gonna mention everyone 'cause I don't want to accidentally forget someone)
But I do agree it s*cks if Apolyton or at least Markos isn't mentioned in the credits or anywhere else

Builder,
We never quite figured figured out if the A stood for 'Apolyton' or 'Alpha' and besides, A-team is so much cooler
Of course, that did mean they had to knock me out everytime we got on a plane, 'cause I'm afraid of flying

[MarkG]

oh yes, Allard, the use real names hide the names of everyone on these forums know...

and yes, there was actually never a final desicion about "A-Team", but it was more like a "noone disagrees or proposes anything else so it stays" kind of situation...

Hmm. I never was "into" the CTP stuff. Still, it was the first thing I looked up as I got Ctp2.

And it would be so much easier if everybody'd just use their real names....

[Locutus]

LOL Don,
Wes posted a list with A-Team members in the Creation forum and didn't Mention Luke Loh but did mention Katy Sodeau. This kind of thing is exactly why I didn't wanna mention a full list before seeing the actual credits

Oh, forgot to mention Dan in my previous post, he should be mentioned in the credits as well, along with Markos.

BTW, this thread kind of made me think. Since only our real names seem to be mentioned in the credits, might it be an idea to give the A-Team members a custom title? So newbies and such can recognize us easier? Just a thought...

[Savant]

Good Roster on that A-Team!

Thanks to all of you (several whom I just identified for the first time) for making the game more enjoyable.

I think I've used all the work each of you have done in the way of modifying and adding to the game and without your mods, I would have abandoned it.

Can I bill you guys for the 100's of hours I've spent playing the game instead of getting work done?

Can I bill "you" for all the hours I spent making those mods?

[skorpion59]

Locutus,

Well since you mentioned some of the members, I thought it only fair to mention all of them. Katy never got involved with the beta but I gave her access to the Beta forums because she had initially signed the NDA. And while Luke resigned from the team, he did so only a week before the game was released. He was just as active in the forums as everybody else so I figured it was only fair to mention him.

Have to say it is real hard sitting here waiting for Activision to ship me a production copy of the game. I have a ton of map conversion work and don't want to release anything until I can test with the production version.

[JimMac]

Hmmm... Interesting to read that CD resigned from the team. As he was the person that made CTP1 playable and enjoyable, I wonder what made him resign from the A team?

Also, is anyone aware of Harlans opinion of CTP2?

Although I have decided that as soon as CTP2 arrives in the UK I shall get a copy, I would be interested in reading the opinions of these two on the game.

So, -if your reading guys...?

Allard, your post implies that CtP2 is already on sale in The Netherlands. If so; where did you get it?
