Thank you for joining, and yes you can be deputy. This will be a real help! The main guy in charge around here I'm hoping will be Fetchydog567, he is the deputy manager of scratch magazine corp. Though I will still be involved.

Oh, sorry, forgot about this! Can you get a few of your reviews ready maybe? I think we should put up the first one on the first of January, so the deadline is for the 1st of each month.

great OS! I love the fact that you have included some of your own music- i had to give you 10 for that  and buying apps is unique as far as i know in other OS's. Perhaps a couple more games... i can not think of many improvements!

It may be a beta but it is still really cool! I love the graphics and the slightly harder ships that you get further on in the game. Like you say- it would be good to have a win screen and prehaps more variety of ships

Setting the benchmark high! I can see that this is based off of that text scolling by app althoug i did not know it was called Polyboard. I do have an improvement idea and that is different colours of the message because it is only blue at the moment. Also aren't sound sliders supposed to be highest on the right
