A83: Hays Games Co. Admits Defeat
ticalc.org has recently announced that it will no longer add Hays Games
Programs to their archives, which means all three major calc sites,
Dimension-Ti, Ti-Files, and ticalc.org are no longer supporting Hays Games
Company software, so it is for that reason, the Hays Games Company must
admit defeat. As of tomorow, our page will be shut down, as will our
company. In the past, we have been blamed for stealing programs and putting
our names on them, most notibly for NBA Hangtime and Tetris Gold. But it
goes way beyond that. Our list of wrongdoings include Code Thieft, Use of
anothers name, lieing, and even homepage hacking. It all started in a yahoo
chat room, four of us were chatting and found out we each had Ti83's and we
wanted to use them to make money, so we founded the Hays Games Company. Our
plan was to make it so that Hays Games Company owned all the archives and
programs, and charged a small $1 per month and we would just send you
upgrades to your software. There were some problems however, and Bill Nagel
to us was the main one. We were going to monopolise the Ti83 using these
steps:
1. Get rid of Bill Nagel (at all costs)
2. Get on one ti sites good side
3. Release quantity over quality
4. Programmeral Diffusion of major OS
5. Release new Doorways with 50+ programs at once
6. Charge money for program upgrades.
We got as far as to step four, until something went wrong, Bryan Rabeler
found out about our copies and deleted all of them. This was our first major
set back. Then along came the New Programmers Order, which was founded by
Chuck Taylor, one of our former members. Soon we had more enemies then we
could handle, and had to hide out for awhile. We started a new company
called Ellis Industries as a front to our operations while anti-hays died
down a bit. Then we came back, but the NPO had allied itself with a group
called Z80-AC and took over our homepage. After we made our new homepage,
Kirk Meyer informed us that ticalc.org, the last site to hold Hays Games Co.
Programs, has deleted all of our software and will not accept it anymore. We
then knew we would never get further then step 3 in our plan for a Ti83
monopoly. The folowing is a list of games we have copied:
Championship Bowling - Fella Bowling
NBA Jam - NBA Hangtime
Baseball - Major League Baseball '98
Jackoff - Batman and Robin's MOM?
ZTetris - Tetris Gold
Duckhunt - Duckhunt 83
