[Paige DePol <lual@...>]

I am glad you found out where the issue was! :)

I was thinking it may of been part of some sort of global var tracking system. I patched the parser and added a 'global' keyword for the explicit declaration of global variables, though instead of storing my table in _G I stored it in the registry.
