I know, it's crazy. 7 years is a good run for a face to face group. We're doing it online. Granted we've had our hiccups and players have come and gone, but our core is still there. You, me, and Aramis. Rhu came back around for a little while and Tatiania is back for her second stint. But 7 years is damn good. I think if we hit 10 years of online gaming, the Trolls should do something special for us.

Wow. 7 years.



It's funny re reading the start of the thread, with talk of a mysterious thing called Skype etc. Rigon was a half elf bard (like always), I was an elven stealth type with a touch of magic (like always), and slimy was a Conanesque barbarian (like always- he is playing a barbarian in the Tuesday game)

Good times, good times.

Thanks for all the fun times guys

Whoa! WOW! It's awesome to see this. We were pioneers in our day!

I haven't played in an online game for over 30 years now. Maybe I should start again.

Wow 1983 online? What medium did you use?

Early '84. Intra-company BBS using VAX's.

Wow

There was also a text based D&D solo game we played on the VAX back then. Pretty cool for its day.

Adventure (also called "colossal cave adventure"). Forerunner of Zork. I played that on the PDP-11 in our university around '77. Someone made a board game out of it on Kickstarter (one that I contributed towards, so I now have two copies of the game... )

Yeah, our PDP was running RSTS-E. And I modded Space War to add a targeting computer for missile shots.

Nice!
