Well right now I'm not sure whether I favor a split or not, but I
think result of any split ought to divide groups so that a large
segment of the news-readers may have an interest in one or the
other, but not both.  An obvious example is the split of the comp
groups by computer platforms (IBM, Mac, etc...)   People with only 
one type of computer will likely have little interest in discussions
of the other types of computers, while people with multiple types
can subscribe to the ones they are interested in.  The result is
that a lot of readers will no longer have to see a lot of stuff they
aren't interested in.

For this reason, I don't think "hints" and "bugs/problems" are good
subgroups, since I think few computer gamers would not be interested
them.  No matter what game you have, wouldn't you want to hear if 
there are any bugs in it?  Similarly, although I can imagine that
there are people who hate "spoilers" and never want hints, I would
guess that the vast majority of gamers either give or ask for hints.
So the end result would be 2 new subgroups that practically everyone
subscribes to anyways -- might as well keep one group.

The split along genres would be more reasonable, since I think 
a lot of people have different tastes.  For instance, I don't
play many flight sims or sports sims, while I do like frpg's and
arcade-type games, so this sort of break-up would save me from
filtering through a lot of posts about games that don't interest
me (although as it is, I haven't had that much trouble keeping
up with the level of traffic in c.s.i.p.games).  My worry is that 
some games may not clearly fit only one of these categories, and
also that some of the subgroups may not generate enough traffic
individually to justify their own group.

Just some thoughts...

It doesn't seem as though the Sound Source will be dying anytime soon.  
Disney has just re-released it in a repackaged form with Windows drivers 
included.  It you want a bargain, find someplace selling it with the old 
version of Mickey's ABC's, you should be able to find the combo package for 
$19.99.  Interestingly, Disney has just re-released the Mickey games with 
Soundblaster (and VGA) support.  If you're on Prodigy, Computer Express has 
this package for $19.99, and I've heard that Egghead will match it.

BTW, the SS is not really a substitute for a good sound card.  You won't get 
any music out of it, at least nothing useful.  Broderbund's Treehouse for 
kids includes a very nice music portion but all the instruments sound alike 
when you use the SS!

	I was wondering the same thing and I did another test.  I took
a male Avatar to Buc's Den, went to the Bath House and talked the male
masseur.  He first asked me if I should be talking to one of the wenches.
But when I insisted that I wanted to "talk" to him, he gave in.  He and
my male Avatar did end up in the Common Room.  I bet this will be the same
if I take a female Avatar and make her to one of the wenches there.

Well, "Computer God", you'd better get your act together if you want to live

640x480x16 is VGA
640x480x256 is SVGA, as is:
800x600x16 (or 256), and
1024x768x16 (or 256)

This sounds like "Alternate Reality: The City," based on your
description and Scorpia's CGW review (I haven't actually played the
game).  I don't think that the second game ("The Dungeon") was ever
released for IBMs, but I could be wrong.  And I'm sure it's not VGA -
I don't even think VGA existed when this game was released.

The version I have is Trek28.  It's at least five years old.  It seems the

       The reagent is just a magical protection item.  There are a number
lying around.  It is probably 10-20% protection against fire or something.
You equip it.

       As for the ninja spells, you should have gained at least one 
alchemist spell by third level.  Your alchemy skill may not be high enough.

(Sorry if this gets posted twice, my Newsreader screwed up the first time)


I have talked (e-mailed) over 10 different people
that own TV Sports: Basketball and NONE of them
have ever seen a crack for this GREAT game!

Is this game un-crackable? Surely there is some great hacker/cracker
out there that could crack the manual based protection in no time.
If I knew how to do it I would.

Anybody want to try it (cracking it)?
The person who does crack it will win the undying devotion
of TVBB owners everywhere and I will upload the crack to ftp
sites with the crackers name and/or alias for all to know and love.
(Was that going too far?)

Contact me if you want to crack it.

Alternatively, if there is a crack that we have not found
yet, please e-mail it to me and I will notify the other
owners of TVBB.

I DO own the game (bought it used, recently) and
can/will prove it if necessary.  I want the crack for
MY use not to distribute the game.

Thanks!

An extremely cool 2-level demo, whose "death incarnate" mode makes the
shareware Wolf3D look like a walk in the park (a rather bloody park,
but what else is new?).  I almost bought it today, but came to my
senses in time (payday, what payday?).  The only unfortunate thing is
that it has the same "disappearing sound" problem as Wolf3D.  Jay,
will there be an upgrade available for SoD when this problem is fixed?
(I hear an "of course" in the wings...)
