CoMI Part 4 - Swamp Lair

[zimyunicornfoal]

As I said last time, when I got to the beginning of Part II I paused my game instead of saving and lost it when my laptop crashed suddenly. The good part is I got a chance to go back and do some stuff I forgot last time! The bad part is I still forgot to cap most of it... D:

"in escrow," according to Dictionary.com, means "in the keeping of a third person for delivery to a given party upon the fulfillment of some condition." So it sounds like the Voodoo Lady is looking after her ship-house for someone else?

So are those frog slippers or something?

I've done my reading. All this foreshadowing of the new Monkey Island games sounds like it has interesting implications for the future of the series.

Also, what was originally planned for Big Whoop? Do you know?

Ooh, that's interesting... It does make you wonder what's going on with that, though.
I wasn't actually expecting anyone to go look that up, by the way. xD I figured I sounded so lazy, nobody would bother!

Looks like it. She was barefoot in the first game, and I can't remember if she wore shoes in the second but she probably didn't. Slippers are a step up. *ba-dum-dish* :D

Reading? What were you reading, just out of curiousity?

I don't know, unfortunatly. I just read in an interview with Ron Gilbert that Big Whoop was never intended to be as big as CMI made it out to be. It's probably got something to do with the Real Secret of Monkey Island, which only Ron Gilbert knows. xD

I was just reading the synopses of the games on Wikipedia, pretty much, but I'm a sucker for cut content, dropped plotlines, and unrevealed secrets that only one person in the world knows and isn't telling.

*pats head in sympathy*

Don't worry, I'll try to stop referencing it so much. I had been replaying it before writing this, which was a bad idea. xD
