sjelkjd if you know TANSTAAFL, not TINSTAAFL, is correct then what is TANSTAAFL?
It is most likely a book about the software quality of games and how to program a game with quality code. The Jargon Dictionary at,
http://info.astrian.net/jargon/terms/t/TANSTAAFL.html, states:
"''There Ain''t No Such Thing As A Free Lunch'', often invoked when someone is balking at the...poor quality of some piece of software...".
Just guessing.
