It can be hard to remember, I know. I think It was from my uncle that I first heard about lemmings. What about you?

I found it first on the Sega Megadrive. That was before I got a computer.

I think my older brother got it (for DOS) off a bulletin board or something... I don't remember, I was only 5 or 6 when we got it :)

I don't think we ever had a "legitimate" version of it. Oh well.

It was being given away when you subscribed to the magazine MacFormat.

My friend showed me lemmings when I was about 4.  I remember that then it liked it because of:

the landscapes were neat - 86%
the puzzles - 14%

Two years later...

landscapes - 65%
puzzles - 35%

now-

landscapes - 47%
puzzles - 53%

I somehow find myself wanting to appreciate the game more for its mysterious landscapes again...it seemed more fun that way  X_X.  Ah well.

EDIT:  That reminds me - before I got lemedit and made an important discovery (which was only about one and a half years ago or so), I didn't know that there were terrain pieces - I thought that each level was uniquely made instead of made up of various pieces that were put together.

Did you know that 72% of all statistics are made up on the spot?  :-/

lol.

Well what else exactly would you have those things expressed as?

It's not like I measured it, so I had to go from memory  X|

One day I just walked into game(last year) and started looking 'round the 'all games £5' shelves. The packaging caught my eye. I looked on the back and thought 'Puzzles saving cute green and blue thingies... Neat...' I bought it, took it home and began playing. My Dad had a great deal of trouble dragging me off the computer that night, I can tell you ;)

I played it at a friend when I was in the first year of secondary school. It was an old monochrom monitor and must have been a 286. I wanted to copy it, but the floppy drive was damaged. So I couldn't play it for about 2  (or 3?) years.
Someday between these 2 (or 3?) years I heard Psygnosis has closed and I thought: "I'm such a dumbass! I already had internet and I knew Lemmings was published by Psygnosis! Why the hell didn't I thought of ordering it?"
Then another friend told me he has somewhere a CD with lots of old DOS Games. Probably also with Lemmings. He gave it to me and... WHohoooo! Lemmings!

But I still never played it through. X_X maybe because I always lost my levelcodes.

Simple, my brother played this game on Atari ST and I was interested to play. So, I played!

Hi guys!  I'm back after a several-month-long hiatus!  I've been very busy with school recently, and I haven't had time to play or talk about Lemmings. :'(  Now that the semester is winding down, I am able to play Lemmings again! :)

I first got the original Lemmings and ONML from a uncle.  Since then, I have received many more Lemmings games for Christmas and for birthdays.

Nice to see you back...Andrew had the same problem.  I wonder if his finals are over.

Demo, I believe. Other than that, I'm not really sure. I've been playing at least the demo since I was three or four, so I really don't remember where it came from.
Ah well.

I do remember when we got all the others, but that wasn't the question.

Eek, no apostrophe! What happened to it? I rather liked it..........

...huh???

My parents got me Lemmings/ONML for Christmas back when I was maybe 7 or 8. They noticed I was a strong puzzle solver at that age, and figured I'd like it.

Now, I'm designing levels for it, even today. I've never been very observant of the scenery, instead playing the game solely for puzzle purposes. This is exhibited in my exclusive choice of the blandish straight-terrain styles for my level design.

I believe he is referring to lemka's username, It used to cantain an apostrophe.

...hey...you're right.

Yeah, why is the apostrophe gone Lemka?

Lem'ka has no apostrophe since she registered. YaBB doesn't support apostrophes in the names. And trying another similar looking character failed since now.

Voila! I've got an apostrophe-type-thingy in my name now! I'm going to take it off, though. You can get one from the key just below the 'esc'. I know it's slanty, but it's close enough!

It looks more like a - than an '

I think it substitutes well enough...

hm...  Lem`ka


Not too bad.  The only thing might be the big space it creates.

Weird O_o, I like most of your levels because of the scenery. How strange.
