Its not about PoE. Ususally who submitted the Game also submitted the Extra for it. In rare Case other People than the Game-Submitter submitted some Extra. Its not just after Abandonia-Relaunch and also before. There is almost no Record (only in Archive-News and in Forum) for it.

Some of my stuff was signed wrong, but after PM to aaa_admin everything is OK. All of my uploads/reviews/translation and Pieces of Eight are correct :amused:

The Fifth Horseman Castlevania review & screenshots are mine (first game I reviewed for AB), no idea who uploaded the archive (but it wasn't me)

The archive for Death Track is _not_ mine. I don't know where Kosta got it, but I remember talking about that, as my copy was somewhat defective (crashed when trying to save the game).

Mechwarrior review, screenshots & archive were mine. Not sure who, when or why entered Wendy as their author, but I am the actual author.
Same about Pinball Illusions. Its FDD version (under extras) was also my upload.
Flashback CD version - archive, review & screenshots all came from myself.

Archive & extras for Lurking Horror were mine. Don't remember who did the review & screenshots.

The screenshots for SimEarth were mine, as evidenced in http://www.abandonia.com/vbullet/showthread.php?t=1759

Also, after looking through the copy of my old PM inbox, I can confirm the following game archives (and only the archives) were my uploads:
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Amazing Spider Man
Dusk of the Gods
Entombed
First Samurai
Flashback
Home Alone
Laser Squad
Les Manley 2: Lost in LA
Mechwarrior
Might & Magic III
Nightmare on Elm Street
Ninja Gaiden II
Pinball Fantasies
Populous
Populous II
Realms of Arkania - Star Trail
Space Hulk
Times of Lore

I've also found a PM to Kosta from some time back, telling him I've uploaded the following manuals:

Quote:
Ishar 1 / Ishar 2 / Ishar 3 - PCX-images. The manual itself has a DOS viewer utility (start.exe in each manual's directory), and is in English, French and German languages.

Robinson's Requiem - PCX-images. The main manual has a DOS viewer utility and three language version, same as Ishar. The Black and White handbooks had info files telling that the missing pages were blank and thus were simply left out. These are only in English and have no viewer utility.

Deus - the manual has been included as a Word 6 DOC file, but I converted it to RTF for greater viewer compatibility.
It also mentioned ones for Battle Isle 1, Battle Isle 2 and Flashback without much specifics - probably these were simple zipped TXT files, the one for Flashback could have been added to the CD version.

Please check if the manuals are in the described form before you credit me for uploading them, though. It's likely some of mine were replaced later.

EDIT: Added two more things. That list should be more or less complete, perhaps with exception of a few archives here and there (but those I'll have to download to check - which I can't do right now, since I'm connected via a cellphone modem).

Do as you please, I won't stop you in giving me unearned honor.

You got it wrong. I submitted the 2 Extras before New Abandonia-Relaunch.

After the Relaunch there was not one Extra-Credit for anybody!

The Reason you and Romano got Extra-Credit (i thinks you 2 are the only one who got Extra-Credit) is because you posted Extra after the Relaunch on the Site.

Then I guess the game was from the Abandonia Database. Usually the submiter isn't even known anymore then.

Possible candidates are Kosta, Romano, The Fifth Horseman, Myself, Kon-Tiki, Tom Henrik,... and probably a few more. Probably even more then one submiter, since sometimes we submited archives for later reviewing and there were several archives of the same game.

I submitted 2 Extra:

- Abandoned Places World Map
- Discworld Language Pack

The Boxshots, that i submitted, are credited correctly.
