@aakoskin in fact, I'm currently hosting @Wintermute_BBS - my #Linux based BBS - natively (it's MBSE BBS) on a RPi 3 due to the fact that I use #Qemu to provide #DOS #Doorgames ... it also works on the RPi1B but it takes 5 minutes to boot to the actual doorgame ...

OK, OK. So I understand that 2002 didn't get me my T'Khasi Orion and that was to be expected, but now that the #TradeWars have started can someone sort one out for me? #BBS #DoorGames #TW2002

This post made me wonder if the author of OO][ still lives in Garland, and will generate codes if you postcard him. I'mma have to find out now.

I'm updating my BBS, making it a place for fun downloads, door games, ANSI art and intentional community (no infinite scroll) 😊 It's evolving so check often! Use netrunner or any terminal to connect to bbs.holmadegames.com 🖥️

One more thing! If you'd like to try this game, please definitely telnet to the Dark Force BBS! It's at darkforce-bbs.dyndns.org, port 1040.

To see Crapz! in its IGS splendor, you'll need to install IGS v2.15 or higher on a real Atari or an emulator.

(You can download IGS from Break Into Chat: breakintochat.com/wiki/Instant )

I neglected to mention that Crapz! is also a fully mouse-driven BBS door game, full of sound effects and animation. In 1991! 🐭 🖱️

In short, Crapz! was a simple, but effective, demonstration of what IGS was capable of.

I'm so sad that Mr. Rodgers seems not to have made any more games after this. It would have been awesome to see something ambitious from him more in the TradeWars or LoRD vein!

I never close Break Into Chat blog posts to comments ... I always hold out hope folks will stumble across one of my posts and add a cool memory.

Today was one of those days!

I have fond memories of playing SRE (Solar Realms Elite) on a few different #BBS systems back in the late 90s.
I tried to play it on internet archive DOS emulator, but I couldn't get it to start.

Greetings from Bolivia in South America. Fans of #bbs door games might get a kick out of the Sucre airport code: SRE.

Finally got around to writing a first-draft wiki page for "1NS0MN1A," a BBS door game released by musician Shooter Jennings in 2020.

breakintochat.com/wiki/1NS0MN1

Playing this game was a lifeline for me in the months after my daughter Jadzia died. It took months, but I did complete it (as I did his previous game, Freedom Train)!

One of my goals for 2023 is to write strategy guides for both 1NS0MN1A and Freedom Train.

3/ LIGHTS! You know who really gets into #Christmas? Gary Martin, creator of TradeWars 2002.

For more than a decade, he's put together a computer-controlled light extravaganza called Parkside Christmas. 🎄

@nshiell I wanted to learn #Pascal back in the 90s, because of #BBS #DoorGames. Another note, if you use hashtags in a reply, make sure visibility is set to public, unless you are using them ironically. I think I need to change back to public visibility as my default. Unlisted toots are hard to find later on.
