I suspect Mr. Lastrega is who he's referring to. Madison accomplished a lot of impressive things,
but I think he was a perfectionists and got discouraged from trying to accomplish too much.

you hope to accomplish with the reality of how much effort it takes to produce a game by yourself.
sirtuftcat, have you seen the 'pumpkin paster' tool posted in the forum here? It has a Piece-shifting
feature that could help you with your seasonal changes. It lets you select a block on your map and
'shift' all the map tile piece numbers higher or lower. For example, if you use the outdoor set for spring,
you could make a retextured 'autumn' outdoor set, copy the map, then 'shift' the Pieces on the copy
to the autumn type.
