Anyone know what this is?

Looking at the Wonderland Wikipedia article today (had a few moments to kill) and noticed an odd entry (which I have removed):

"There is a sequel to WSW called WSWCR. This alters the favorite, and is created by Michael J Hardy."

Anyone know what this is?

I had a Google and found that he is a supposed Visual C++ and Visual Basic programmer ..... but all the things he 'writes' are rip offs of someone else's work. He apparently takes the source code from other games and software to make his own version then passes it off as his own work. See this link, there's a lot of reading ... http://sam.zoy.org/blog/2007-05-26-bitt ... el-j-hardy

I couldn't find any reference to WSW in the blog though.

This man Hardy is cheeky to pass others work as his own, they can't be as good can they, and it must be piracy with a capital P.

I totally agree.

Again I totally agree with your reaction. I know I would do all to remove a copy of IaDT which someone claimed as his own, while it's my and my friends' hard work. Even worse would be if someone would take the SOURCE and CHANGE it, then post it at Yard's "Making_Games" forum (link), I know I would ban him permanently without prior notice.
