Where is Turin (Split from "Gali's Contract" in Add-on Feedback)

I think that GC was the last campaign that Turin made for the IE before he left, and it's a little underdone, but with a bit of work it could be a nice little campaign.
Where is turin, he is "gone"!? :o

He's been "gone" for a long time.
Just not interested in Wesnoth stuff anymore, he still exists, if that's what you're asking, just not in any way that contributes to the IE. :(
Maintainer of the Imperial Era and the campaigns Dreams of Urduk, Epic of Vaniyera, Up from Slavery, Fall of Silvium, Alfhelm the Wise and Gali's Contract.
But perhaps 'maintainer' is too strong a word.

:D That'd be really awesome.

That's the way of internet forums. People come and people go. Turin probably just lost interest in Wesnoth, for what reasons only he knows. I doubt anyone here knows where he is or what he is doing now, but the fact remains that he hasn't been around here in quite a while (it's been almost a year since he last logged into his account), and that's unlikely to change any time soon. This is not the place to be discussing that, however.

Oh I forget a point, maybe several, I will send them all here if I can recall them some time.

I found that GC does not have any portraits, nor do any of turin's campaign has character portraits; except for SE, but its portraits are crude and made of terrible quality. I wonder why don't you guys seek for some other art contributors' help or at least get something to decorate them. After all portraits will make characters look cooler and more refreshing :)

... not to mention that post count is something very unimportant. Quality is the key, not quantity.

I found it a little irrelevant too now, but my idea is such a man who have posted so many stuff must love wesnoth very much, cannot just disappear.
And no distract anymore, plz. Talk about the feedbacks. :)

Please don't use this subforum to carry on conversations not directly related to add-on feedback. Not only does it clutter up threads that exist primarily to collect data, but in addition, not many people visit this subforum, so the people who could actually answer your questions about turin won't see your posts. I recommend either User's Forum or Off Topic as the place to continue this conversation, AxalaraFlame

Sigh.

What Thrawn said (and what I mentioned earlier). Therefore, in the interest of keeping the Campaign's topic in Add-on Feedback free of clutter, I've split this entire tangent to Off-Topic. I blame myself for not doing that to begin with.

I actually have had a little contact with Turin recently. I read some of the posts on his blog, commented on one of them, and told him about the revised Orcei Gladiatores.
He was pleased that there is still some interest in the IE, even if he's not involved anymore.

He's probably not coming back, though. He said he's "moved on" from Wesnoth. So be it.

Turin left long before you came here... so, why are you so upset with it?

I am a noob at any kinds of programming. Maybe the extent of famliarity what I reached in campaigns already made me a master advisor, I am after all a noob :oops:
