As you may or may not know we recently figured from fairly circumstantial evidence that our own Flimsy Parkins has committed suicide. He was definitely one of ZZT's most unique creative treasures and his sudden departure is truly jarring.
Share your favorite Flimsy moments here. Hopefully him and drac0 are making the ZZTer section of hell pretty interesting for all of us.

Re: Regarding Flimsy
I have only talked with Flimsy briefly a couple times, but one exchange we had about a year ago makes a lot more sense after reading that long "explanation" page. I didn't really know what to make of it at the time. (It had nothing to do with suicide.)
I hope that he created the archive of his work that he spoke of, as that would be worth preserving. I have a few things saved from Castle ZZT c. 2005, but I seem to remember that site cycling through a lot of different artwork over time so my archive is likely very incomplete.
