v1.6 (2 January 2004)
Happy new year, everyone! I hope your holidays were as good as mine, and you
got plenty of loot! (With any luck, you got a game I covered in an FAQ.)
Okay, this time up, we've got only a few things to add. First, one piece of
unconfirmed information has been confirmed, and it's been moved to the end of
Other Events and Rumor Killers. Second, a new section has been added toward the
end called Backing Up Your Sims. This will list the two methods to back up your
files in case you have to reinstall your game, or if you're just making sure
everything is safe. Third, I've added a detailed subsection on how to get Black
Roses. Fourth, someone has given another theory about the Polar Attraction
spell. Fifth, someone has contributed a piece of unconfirmed information. Sixth
and finally, I've moved the Magical Crystals part of Other Events and Rumor
Killers to a new subsection of the Magic section. I think it's more fitting
there.
I also went through the whole magic section and made a few grammatical and
spelling changes, along with minor additions and deletions to spell
descriptions and such.
