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

A big shout out to this fellow Ray I found over on YouTube who has posted 139 videos of himself playing #MajorMUD defeating various monsters/quests while narrating what's going on.

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

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.

I remember these. I was all over them too. I eventually had a second phone line for the modem. That is where it all started....
Mastodon has such a strong, strong resemblance to it.
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. 🎄

DID YOU KNOW: One of the few folks to develop new BBS door games recently is Shooter Jennings? (!)
https://breakintochat.com/blog/2015/09/18/shooter-jennings-creator-of-from-here-to-eternity/
Shooter has written three interesting, immersive games since 2015. I interviewed him ahead of the release of the first game, “From Here to Eternity”.

Monday will mark the 10th anniversary of my website breakintochat.com. I've been revisiting some of the old gems I unearthed over the years. Loving this reconstructed message thread from a game of SRE (Solar Realms Elite) I played in 1993 or 1994.

@davetroy I also had my own BBS but my parents most certainly didn't appreciate getting calls from angry teenager modems. They ended up getting me a second line lol. $17/month. I really enjoyed setting the "before" and watching my users play Legend of the Red Dragon, BRE, SRE and Trade Wars! #nostalgia #BBS #doorgames #bre #sre #LORD
