Yep.

Nope. Well, sort of, but not really, no.

I remember getting bilked out of $3,000 when Team Japump! decided to release their dump of Monkey Magic within hours of us winning an auction on a Monkey Magic board to which I contributed. Good times. You win some, you lose some.

Not about the money, so wouldn't help.
> Or did he quit hobby all together?
For all intents and purposes, yes.

It sort of has been, but only via a website which was borderline libelous towards Dr. Decap, though not without at least a little bit of reason.
> Sorry to hear we lost this > good asset to community
I'm not sure he ever was a good asset to the community. He was certainly pitched as such by those who I will not name due to a (honestly undeserved) sense of decorum, but at the end of the day his work was lackadaisical at best from the get-go, and ultimately his failings have provided Team Japump! with a convenient excuse for not working with MAMEdev (not that they really ever did in the first place).
