• Testing a new door game, rlogin available for now

    Been working on a crazy new door game for synchronet, it's sort of like a combination of NBA Jam, Lord and Pokemon all mashed into
    one with a bunch of zany dilligaf type humor mixed in. It's way to deep, and i'm just letting the scope creep until it breaks.
    it's multiplayer, like live arcade style multiplayer, none of this turn based nonsense. yeah, you can level up your character, youcan play with the barney the purple dinosaur as your teammate, maybe you can take down the red bull, perhaps darth vader will get
    in your way. yes this is a basketball game, but don't be surprised if sally jesse raphael or dr. phil show up, there's a lot that
    goes into being a true baller. remember to work hard, because your children need to drink lots of soda to stay healthy. if you'regonna take a side chick on the road, best ditch her before you go to where your inlaws live - no one needs baby mama drama! some
    say you shouldn't gamble, but maybe you can hack the system! do you ever have to use the restroom and feel the urge to write on
    the wall? now you can with free sharpies in every restroom in every NBA city that you travel to on a daily basis. Leave your mark! Oh yeah, and you gotta play basketball too. Hit the streets and use your daily turns to beat the challengers for reputation, seekout the NBA ballers for that city to beat them and add them to your Ballerdex -> give em a ring ding dong and add em to your crew,
    but you gotta have that $$$ money for ballers to give you the time of day.

    After all that traveling, the end of the season winds near and a battle of true skill awaits in the playoffs while the next season
    gets underway. After x number of days, 30 usually, the brackets are assigned and you submit your schedule for live matchmaking.
    Matches have a live window, a ghost window, and a simulation window for abandoned. This way, skill must prevail. But perhaps thereare ways to bridge the skill gap, for now, stay healthy and drink lots of soda.

    synchronet rlogin command: `?rlogin futureland.today:4513 -t xtrn=NBA_JAM`

    or just c'mon down to the bbs. i think i'll be officially done with this by the new year 1.0 version wise hopefully. may
    distribute it as installable after that if it makes sense, it can be multiplayer without rlogin across synchronet systems (althoughi haven't tested it)
