I'm really waiting on Mystara - I said he should book first and then others book mentioning his name.

Hmmm, in the FAQs, as I said above it says for the question "Can I get members of my party to book for themselves?" "Yes. First book for yourself and then let us know approximately how many other people you expect to be in your group. Then get your friends to book asking them to mention your name, so we can seat you together."

So, I think the best bet is to book and tell then approximately how many to expect (I see no function for this on the online booking, so you may have to phone) and then the rest of us can book mentioning your name (there is a space for this in the online booking). This 'associates' it with your booking and says that they can then seat us together.

I'm interested in coming along. Mystara, how do you plan to do the booking? Reading the FAQs, it says:

Can I get members of my party to book for themselves?

Yes. First book for yourself and then let us know approximately how many other people you expect to be in your group. Then get your friends to book asking them to mention your name, so we can seat you together.

Can I make a provisional booking?

Almost certainly! We know it can take a short while to put a large group together, so we're happy to provisionally reserve places for you. We can normally hold a provisional booking for a few days before we require confirmation of numbers and a deposit. If the event is many months away we can sometimes hold a provisional booking for a few weeks. This may vary depending on how close to the event the provisional booking is made or how full the event is; give us a call and our sales staff will clarify this for you.

(Don't worry too much about the 'provisional booking' question; I decided to put this in because it was there.) I think the best bet would be to do as the first question says (i.e. book for yourself and let other members book mentioning your name). This would avoid having to have money changing hands between us. There seems to be a space in the online booking pages to mention a name. Some people may want to stay for one or two nights as well (I think I would stay for the one night - I think most people will, because of the 11pm finish), and the website allows you to book for this.

Incidentally, the text I post appears to be bold. I don't know how to prevent this (by default, it came out yellow!)

Just to let you know that "Dead Cert" will premiere at Frightfest" on the 27th August, Hugo will presumably be attending the premiere. You can check out the latest news on the official Facebook page for the film.

By the way, I've finally found Hugo's online CV and casting call, it has some really great pictures one of them is recent.

I'm pretty sure this is a mistake but it says in his Acting Credits that he's provided the voice for Treguard in a 2009 animation for Televirtual.

Could this be what Tim Child has been stirring since 2008 ? I know that it's more than likely a typing error and they've mistaken it for KMVR in 2005, but it's these little things that keep us fans going, isn't it ?

Hmm, is it not going to be released for the masses in all the regular cinemas in the country? It seems strange that it only has the première and then straight to DVD. Usually, you get the première, then soon after it has its official release date (so you can see it on the opening day in your local cinema if you want to) then you wait a while (usually the cinemas will have stopped showing it by then) and the release date of the DVD is announced (usually after a long delay). Why the DVD release so soon after the première? (You would expect a wide cinema release first).

Sounds like a good idea - I wasn't around for the original Knightmare RPG so would be interested in this. Perhaps set a target to do it between September and December this year to make it like the original series (I thought you should be able to have time to set that up). (By all means do it sooner if you can get everything ready).

Just thought I'd add my support to this - would love to be able to buy Knightmare on DVD.

Yes that room was in series 6. No team chose the cup in that room (incidentally, nobody ever won a quest for the cup).

I also noticed that there is no link to issue 49 in the Eye Shield pages of the website.

I was looking at the team 3 series 3 death and I couldn't work out where the hell he was supposed to go - it looked like there was nowhere else to go.

I've noticed that it's lost the thing at the bottom which listed the last five posts made.

Talking of creative things, is there any chance of reviving the Knightmare RPG from cold storage by 7th September? (Or at least be doing something towards it by then).

Yes Please

On the series 8 page, you put Smirkenorff's chamber in level 2 and said it also appeared in level 1. It acually only ever appeared in level 1 and never in level 2. Also, there is no entry in the characters (The Opposition) section for Bhal-Shebah. I seem to remember that there used to be one, but this seems to have gone now.

I've emailed these people. Illusion, I think this perhaps warrants a note on the front page of the main site in the Knews section to get as many people as possible to email them. Incidentally, I got a standard automated reply from them:

"Thank-you for your suggestion for a series for DVD release. Unlike other DVD publishers, Replay does not wish to expand to the point where it is a massive player in the market. We believe that staying small scale will enable us to stay faithful to our founding philosophies. However, the downside of that is that our catalogue will remain relatively modest, so consequently any suggestion will have to be considered very carefully before we could ever act upon it. Naturally, that means that your suggestion may not make it to Replay's production schedule, but at least you can be certain that it was carefully considered. Thanks again."

One thing - if you take the quest for the crown, you get told by Gwendoline that Ariadne's lair lies ahead - but I can't find it. Is this a 'leftover' from a deleted scene or something? Or am I missing something? (I'm sure I've tried all the paths).

Also, the choice between the shield and the hammer seems pointless, because you can complete the quest either way.

On the Series 1 first page, if you click on the links at the bottom to the individual teams (not the ones along the bottom row, the ones above it, with each link on its own line and a description with it, as well as the 'Continue to the First Quest' link), it comes out on a white background, but if you click on the links on the bottom row (all on one line), it works as (I think) intended. The links shoud be pointing to http://www.knightmare.com/series/1/index.php?quest=1, (numbers going from 1 to 6), but the links at the bottom of the series 1 'start page' for each team instead go to http://www.knightmare.com/series/1/q1.htm.

Just noticed that it was mentioned in The Eye Shield, but is not yet anywhere. Illusion, have you received it? Would you be able to get it on the site by the next update in January?

No major thing, but, out of interest, why was talkknightmare.co.uk dropped? I think it was all right and it seemed an unnecessary change to me.

The FAQ question 8 points to the old address of www.talkknightmare.co.uk. Also, series 1 page 1, 'silver proceeds gold' should be 'silver precedes gold'.

On the Series 3, Level 1 page, 'Layer of the Dreaded Kar' should be 'Lair of the Dreaded Kar'.
