Lol, I'm still picking vars out of my teeth...
Thanks for the links, I'll be sure to read them ;)
I can relate to the whole perfectionist deal- I often find myself going back and redoing maps completely. It always works out better afterwards, though, so I suppose it's a good thing.
I know, I'd love for it to be on Emerald, but there are just... too many things to be careful with. I mean, I couldn't get scripts to compile to the ROM, and other crazy stuff kept happening. For a friend of mine, the Battle Frontier was... destroyed, despite him not having touched its data or scripts, or... anything. We've both had to move to Ruby. But it's all good, Ruby is a fine base, more English-speaking hackers should use it.
EDIT: And that Great Black One seems really interesting, lol. I really can't wait for a demo, I love hacks where you play as a Pokemon, I think I'd like to do one after my first ideas are done. Give me.... fifteen years. That should do it. :D
