First off turn off the crappy html messages in IE.  No one else wants to
look at that.

You needed 3k for plainjump 2, not plainjump 1.

Tetris is much smaller because it lacks linkplay.

What the hell does final fantasy for gameboy have to do with my ti85
game ff85????

And more importantly, the gameboy version was/is atleast 512k, maybe a
meg.  BTW, I DO plan to make the game big enough so it won't run under
usgard.  I will do the same with my next games - NetHack 85, FF85 2,
etc.

USGARD is not a valid option as far as I am concerned.
