Thanks to the following typists (in alphabetical order), the dump is complete!

amarok, angrylion, Armatic, ASI, bdam, BrianT, Canim, casper, ChuKy, Cpt. Pugwash, DarylC, Dr. Spankenstein, drewcifer, fireinthehole, franciscohs, Fungo, john666, Klez, Layne, leniad, Lord_Nightmare, Malice, MAMu_, MASH, mitice, MonkeyEgg, MrDuncanM, NaokiS, niiiih, Osso, Qun Mang, Rad R, RagingBoner, real, SothoTalKer, superultrahyper, s_bastian, TAZ-NZ, Various For, Warpath0007, Xiaou2, x_wins, Zer0

Out of 65,536 bits (8 kilobytes), 17 bits are questionable, even after 3 people typed them. Five of these are completely obscured and will require disassembly to figure out, 9 of them have pretty good guesses, but I marked them to be checked in the disassembly anyways, and 3 of them are pretty obviously in the middle of big globs of 1's, but I marked them as questionable just in case.

Thanks to s_bastian's ever-maturing monkey-tool, it took me roughly 30 minutes to look through the results, fix the mis-typed bits, and take note of the bits we're still unclear about. This is a vast improvement in time spent over what it would take one or two people to do it, and bodes well for the future. There was, on average, roughly 0.5 mistakes per image, and only in four cases did everyone disagree about a single bit.

We still have to decode these bits into a ROM and feed it through a TMS320C15 disassembler, but that will come in due time.

In the meantime, thank you again to s_bastian, all y'all typists, and to Dr Decapitator, whose images are so high quality this is a joy to do!
