View Full Version : Mystery Cart got be Suspended on Atari Age
Atari Charles

Due to the Mystery Cart which some of you have already received, I have been Suspended by Atari Age either temporarily or Permanently:
http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=121531&st=0
I was banished before I could reply to either Al's pm or to the thread.
Everyone who has received the Mystery Cart so far is happy with it.
So those of you who bought this Mystery release have the cart that got me banned from Atari Age. You have a little piece of Atari homebrew history.
I have emailed Al to find out exactly the reasons my account was suspended and why I was not allowed a response on the forums and to his Pm.
Al has alway been fair with me in the past, so hopefully we are able to get beyond this Green Monster Cart.(hint to identity of cart)
It should be my choice who I work with and don't work with to come out with a release. As far as I know, most of us live in free countries that allow self determination.
For those of you who may receive emails or/and pms calling to blacklist me, I hope you will ignore these and deal with me based on your previous dealings with me.

From reading the thread, AL first replied about the topic , then later asked if someone could fill him in on the content of the Atari Mystery Cart. Assuming someone did and he decided that was enough to banish you.
So why not fill us all in on exactly what the mysery cart was, how much did it cost and what is the content?
It would be tough to judge without that information.....

I want the release to be a surpise for those who have not received it yet, so I can't comment on specifics other than the cart and manual is a work of parody and fiction and is not intended to be taken seriously and everyone who has gotten a cart does not take it seriously and gets a good laugh out of it.
Al an I are in email contact now so hopefully we can get beyond this. He unfortunately was recently given some misinformation by an unknown source about the game.

Now that all of the "mystery" carts have been produced and shipped, why not fully divulge what the game/hack that was on there was?
Your continued desire to be publicly cryptic about the contents of the cartridge makes me (and likely others more closely involved in this) think that the contents were some type of copyrighted material that you weren't licensed to sell.
Also, why wouldn't you just describe what was on there in support of your side of things? UNLESS you really had something to hide/it would clearly show your guilt in the matter I can't see any reason to not explain the situation (even if you were selling a hacked rom ... which, I know Atari Age used to allow and participate in, but then began frowning upon the practice years ago).

AtariAge has no policy preventing the sale of hacks. Atari Charles (obviously) just sold one and another forum member just sold another a few weeks ago.

Bad enough to get Atari Charles banned. It's not's just the content of the game that got him banned. He's been skating on thin ice for a long time...Albert had enough with his latest stunt. I can't comment further at this time.

I remember maybe 5-6 years ago, they used to have lots of rom hacks - like more "arcade accurate" versions of Pac-Man and Space Invaders with carts/labels/packages for sale in their "store" section ... but then they got some kind of injunction from the copyright holders to remove them ... I can't remember if that announcement was made on the site or I read it on some other news feed.
Or was that just some crazy dream I had?

Correct. Those games you refer to (some of which were homebrews, not hacks) are no longer sold in the AtariAge store for copyright reasons. That has nothing to do with individual members like Atari Charles selling whatever hacks they've created, which happens fairly regularly.

like your name says why not relax, im sure the info will come out, so he didnt want to spoil it for the rest who may not have gotten it or had a chance to try the game.

Al an I are in email contact now so hopefully we can get beyond this. He unfortunately was recently given some misinformation by an unknown source about the game.
The information about the game came from one of the people who bought your $45 mystery hack.
Did you think starting a thread about this on DP to gain a sympathetic ear was going to help your cause? Once again you have shown poor judgement, starting this thread before Albert even had a chance to respond to your emails today.
You have brought this on yourself, by hinting at the "controversial" nature of this cartridge and then directly avoiding answering questions about it back in January, when Albert asked you specifically if it had anything to do with Hozer. You could have quite easily avoided this by being honest up front, but you chose not to be.
I don't know what line of bullshit Randy sold you to get you to be a 'martyr' for him, or if this is simply your idea of a sick joke, but your ass is finished.
***SPOILERS***
For those who do not have the cartridge, it is a hack of a Data Age game about preventing Hozer Video Games from putting a bunch of bootleg carts on eBay and "that if the player is successful AtariAge would be happy". The manual contains a complete copy of a ridiculous "manifesto" against AtariAge (and others) that Hozer put up on his website recently. The cartridges were manufactured by Randy Crihfield (Hozer Video Games).
It should be my choice who I work with and don't work with to come out with a release. As far as I know, most of us live in free countries that allow self determination.
Tell it to the Supreme Court. You're DP's problem now. I suspect you'll find it significantly harder to find people over here willing to shell out $45 for your hacks, and I don't expect you to last very long here (since you were banned once already).

Um ... who says I'm not relaxed?
I just don't understand the need for continued cryptic posts and secrecy (in a public forum no less) if he's trying to resolve a delicate matter/conflict.
Why not just privately email and PM the people who bought the cart with his situation?
Why "tease" those of us who don't know what the contents of the cart are with "clues" (green monster cart?) if he doesn't want to generate discussion on the matter?
I was only commenting on the situation with my opinion.

Guy makes cart with copyrighted game material without authorization. Guy sells cart on a website that does not allow such material to be sold. Guy gets banned.
The End.

--Yes, one who didn't read the manual well I guess.
--Al mentioned to me in his email that he was notified of my thread here. Hmmm interesting, don't you think ole bluejeans.
--poor judgement. Odd how those were Al's exact words to me about this post. Hmmm. Interesting.
--You certainly know alot. How could you know.. Ohhh I see. You know things only Al and I talked about. Hmmmm.
--Hozer you say. Where did you get that information and how did Al get it seeing I neither sent you nor him a cart.
--My ass is finished. Are you god? And why would you care about my ass?
--Thanks for spoiling some info on the cart. For those who's surprise was spoiled you can thank Bluejeans.
--I wanted this cart to be a surprise by everyone who opened their package but I guess you screwed that up. Thanks.

You have no one to blame but yourself. You were dishonest about the content of the game right from the start. Regardless of the content, you lied. You know Al was not happy when he found out what the game was, but instead of discussing it privately, you predictably came over here to try to gain a sympathetic ear from people...most of whom don't know who the hell you are or who Hozer is.

And the true winner of the thread: me. Damn I'm glad I still have these 45 dollars in my pocket. I will admit I almost got tempted to buy one of these but it seemed like they were being pushed too hard.
Sounds to me like the game is a hack of Frankenstein's Monster (http://www.digitpress.com/DP/cmf/game.cmf?gameid=24059), if my mind is working correctly today.

The content was a mystery that you ruined by opening that thing you call a mouth. I wanted to preserve the mystery to make it fun for everyone. Luckily most people have received their packages. There were people on Atari Age who didn't want anyone to reveal what the cart was as they wanted to be surprised. Others who already received the cart, were respectful and decent enough not to say what the cart was. That was of course until you came along.
Al is not God even though you may think so. Al did an amazing thing with Atari Age, but he is a human being. Not a sympathetic ear? I actually found it hillarious that I would be banned for something as silly as a video game. Boo hoo!
I was discussing it privately with Al, you are the one posting your interpretations of private pms and emails.
You are the fool. And you know the saying of a heart and purple piss, well that is what I feel for you.

Privately? If you hadn't come over here and started bitching publically via this thread, I'd have nowhere to post such info.

I don't know what the hell that's supposed to mean, but you've pretty much whittled your chances of ever being allowed back on AA down to absolute zero. Right from the time you announced this game, you bragged that people would want to "smash it". Things pretty much turned out the way you expected, except the only thing getting smashed is your reputation (which was pretty worthless to begin with).

honestly, this is kinda turning into a pissing match, but regardless of that here's some objective points of observation I see.
1. AtariCharles created a hack of a game called the Mystery Cart to sell. This is done all the time at Atariage , no biggie, nothing to get banned about
2. AA, itself still sells Hacks, so I doubt that's what got Atari Charles banned/suspended
3. Some people over at AA are not that fond of Atari Charles anyway because they think the $100 Tron Guy cart and such are ridiculous and overpriced.so it's not like some people didn't already have it out for him.
4. The cart has some satire, that was probably not appreciated by Al, but really the game, from what I hear doesn't infringe on any Homebrew IP. It does however stoke some old fires about Hozer Vs AA. Now, I'm gonna assume this game was produced by Atari Charles and not Hozer as someone alluded to. If Al thought it was made by Hozer....that combined with the unfavorable light the cart would show AA in, is probably just pissed Al off to the point of banning/suspending Atari Charles.
5. Atariage is a private entity and can decide on it's membership. The only reason I see for a post over here, is that Atari charles can respond here and a lot of the same people will see that response. As for motive for the post. It could be to rant, it could be just to explain the situation, or it could be to stir up crap between the 2 sites again. Really, I don't mind the explaination reason, and I'd hope it's not to just stir the pot.

The game not only involved Hozer, but the cartridges themselves were made by Hozer. Atari Charles was warned not to go there...not to make anything involving Hozer, DP, or anything else that would rekindle old flames (satire or not). He blatantly ignored that warning and was purposely evasive about the nature of the game. There isn't much more to say. This has nothing to do with DP, and there was no reason for AC to come here and bitch publically if he sought to resolve this privately (as he claims).
Better question, why is this in Buying and Selling exactly?
Because there's no forum called 'Wastebasket'.

Because there's no forum called 'Wastebasket'.
Because it's to do with the buying of a product. That's why I've left it here so far.
Quite frankly most of the dirty laundry should be conducted in private, but that's hard when a number of the people involved have no other outlet. For the moment things have been... well not straying just yet into the non-cordial realms but I advise certain persons to conduct themselves better in leiu of not just getting this thread locked, but being excluded from this forum/site as well...

1. AtariCharles created a hack of a game called the Mystery Cart to sell. This is done all the time at Atariage , no biggie, nothing to get banned about
---Very true. But it is is treated as a big deal as I worked with the Iran of the Atari world, Hozer Video Games.
2. AA, itself still sells Hacks, so I doubt that's what got Atari Charles banned/suspended
---It was me working with Hozer and releasing this controversial release. That is why I got banned.
3. Some people over at AA are not that fond of Atari Charles anyway because they think the $100 Tron Guy cart and such are ridiculous and overpriced.so it's not like some people didn't already have it out for him.
---True. The people that seem to be the most upset are those who also sell hacks and homebrews. Hmmmm.
4. The cart has some satire, that was probably not appreciated by Al, but really the game, from what I hear doesn't infringe on any Homebrew IP. It does however stoke some old fires about Hozer Vs AA. Now, I'm gonna assume this game was produced by Atari Charles and not Hozer as someone alluded to. If Al thought it was made by Hozer....that combined with the unfavorable light the cart would show AA in, is probably just pissed Al off to the point of banning/suspending Atari Charles.
---There is laughable satire in the game and manual and a beautiful Poem on the first page of the manual about Randy(Hozer). The game isn't meant to be taken seriously but as a fun game that the player can get a laugh out of. The game mostly pokes fun at Randy a he is the main bad guy in the game. The game was a joint release. Hozer did manufacture the carts and I believe this is his first joint limited release. I co-operated with Hozer which made me worse than the Taliban in the Atari 2600 universe.
5. Atariage is a private entity and can decide on it's membership. The only reason I see for a post over here, is that Atari charles can respond here and a lot of the same people will see that response. As for motive for the post.

Really, I don't mind the explaination reason, and I'd hope it's not to just stir the pot.
---That's very true, so whatever Al decides is his choice. I can only respond here. It would have been nice to get some notice as my only contact with some AA members is via the forums. It's like I got kicked out of my apartment with all my stuff still inside.
---Thanks for some logic.

---Very true. But it is is treated as a big deal as I worked with the Iran of the Atari world, Hozer Video Games.
Like you, whatever 'sanctions' Randy has faced he has brought upon himself.
---It was me working with Hozer and releasing this controversial release. That is why I got banned.
It wasn't just you working with Hozer. It was you working with Randy on a game involving Hozer after Albert specifically warned you against it. He questioned you about the nature of the game and you were deceptive...you lied. You also used AtariAge as a vehicle to spread Randy's bullshit and lies. You also came over here to DP simply for the purposes of causing a public scene instead of keeping the matter private.
That is why you're banned.

You broke the rules and you got banned, suck it up.
Don't come whining here about it.

---But that is my choice to make a game about Hozer with Hozer. I could not answer any questions detailing the Mystery Cart as it was a Mystery release. That's the point.
---So now we have Trade Sanctions against people who make carts with or order carts from Hozer.
---The Game makes fun of Randy as he is the bad guy in the game the player must stop.
---Randy's Manifesto(Al's name for it not mine) was added for comedic sake. The manual is not meant to be taken seriously. The Game and manual are a parody and fictional. Its not like Randy actually transformed into a Giant Hozer Head.
---I was banned without notice and without time for a response. I was banned about 12 hours before I posted here. What am I supposed to do, grab a ukalelee and play Tip Toe Through the Tulips. I could have waited, but the outcome would have been the same. Banned for making a cart about Hozer with Hozer.
---I am tired of this back and forth nonsense, so hopefully a moderator will lock this thread.

You want to make games with Hozer that's your business. But you won't be selling these games on AtariAge.

Stop trying to nonchalantly pass it off as a joke. Nobody's laughing.

Since when are administrators required to give people notice before they're banned? You could have gotten into contact with Al via email...there's no reason for you to post on the boards...especially not over here on DP.

Everytime I hear the word mystery it reminds me of mystery meat. What the hell is in it? And getting back on topic, was that what was in this mystery cart: meat?

PingvinBlueJeans;1335674 You want to make games with Hozer that's your business. But you won't be selling these games on AtariAge.
---Oh well. I like Atari Age, but with these Trade Embargos I'll have to buy and sell goods with my neighbour The Iyatollah Hozer of the Republic of Iran, Fidel Castro, and Kim Jong Il. Man these Trade Embargos are tough. Is this sanctioned by the United Nations of Atari?
Stop trying to nonchalantly pass it off as a joke. Nobody's laughing.
---Really, I've gotten pms and emails from people who did get a laugh out of it and who do like the game. The reviews once mostly received will be posted on my site.
Since when are administrators required to give people notice before they're banned? You could have gotten into contact with Al via email...there's no reason for you to post on the boards...especially not over here on DP.
---You mean like how he could have emailed me before the ban. Yes, Ideally it would have been better for him not to ban me, ask me about the game as it is released now, and so on. What's done is done. I don't have a time machine and neither does Al, so I guess we are stuck in this reality in the here and now.
They'd be better served to toss you like a hot potato.

Are you guys goofing around? Because this is just about the weirdest thread I have ever seen. Sorry if I missed the back story.
But really... please tell me you're just jerking our chains and/or are working on an April Fools' Day prank. You can PM me if you want to keep the gag private, I just need to know.

You tell me. This was just submitted via the contact form on AtariAge:
'for the good of the community' is a great term, but words are just empty shit without actual action .. clue me in here guys, 'the good of the community' is: 1. jacking up prices (to an insane extent may I add); 2. basically stealing and pirating information from several atari sites to start YOUR OWN site; 3. Completely cutting off (and backstabbing may i add) anyone doing anything involving a party outside of AA; 4. do i need to say more? ... see the lust for power i believe has not only blinded you, but opened the eyes to many others about the bullshit youre trying so hard to sell.. are you just commies? are you trying to be some sort of dictators so that people will grovel at your feet? WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE? through all of the lies told and people scammed WHAT DOES IT GAIN FOR YOU? is it money? maybe to put your \'mark\' in this world? please help me here because all i see is cheap games sold way over priced, buyers being ripped off, competitors being shut off with wrath and absolute hate shown towards them, and above all POOR attitudes, RUDE remarks, BACKSTABBING of friends, oh and once more may i add, nothing but a heaping mound of stinking bullshit frothing from your faces.. forums that i\'ve seen and everything i\'ve known all eludes me to two simple facts: i will stand strong to fight your psychotic bullshit, and i will push the absolute HARDEST i can to keep money and fame and power over atari games and everything involved AWAY from you and make sure in the end, every story everywhere where you fucked parties for no legit reasons will be told and splattered on the walls of this site, and thats not just because your a group of faggots that i dont like.. FUCK YOU
From the IP address: 24.181.237.19 (Charter Communications from Worcester Mass).
This is (presumably) the IP used by Randy Crihfield (who is/was Hozer Video Games). So this whole thing was a joke, eh? Some joke. That you see there is the incoherent ramblings of a long-disgraced member of the Atari community. Par for the course for him, but why you have aligned yourself with this nutjob is beyond me. But alas, you suffer your fate Charles.
Are you guys goofing around?
Not at all, and I wish you'd lock this thread, because it's become pretty pointless.

Yeah, I'm gonna lock it. Only because now that I've actually READ it and someone asked, if I DON'T I'm going to get the usual bullshit about how I want to create CHAOS!
So whatever. Too bad, it was ten good minutes of interesting reading, and I hope you two can trade jabs somewhere else. I also hope someone will point me to that link too, because this was truly a battle of wits.
