Well, it's over. Here are a few things that you might find
|
|||
|
|
interesting. Or maybe not.

If you pressed '5' on the main menu, you got to the 'Fnord' menu. Only
|
|||
|
|
one person discovered this, as far as I know. There wasn't much on it,
|
|||
|
|
but if you'd told me, I would have put your access up. :)

My password was 'int10h'. There. It's useless now, and has no bearing
|
|||
|
|
on any of my other passwords on any other board, so it might as well
|
|||
|
|
be public.

There was a minor pirate files area. It never went public because
|
|||
|
|
there was hardly anything in it. I mean, just how many .GIFs of jolly
|
|||
|
|
rogers and men with eyepatches do you WANT? If anyone has a GIF of
|
|||
|
|
Captain Pugwash, Sandy Turner from Decadence still wants one, we
|
|||
|
|
believe.

When the BBS was in the lounge room, dweeb spotting almost became a
|
|||
|
|
sport. We would watch people log on and get confused. Hahaha. Some of
|
|||
|
|
you people type terribly, you know.

The correct response to 'Hail Eris' in the newuser questionaire was
|
|||
|
|
'Fnord'. This would have auto-verified you. Alternatively, you could
|
|||
|
|
have entered 'RESET' and recieved security level 23. (Reserved for
|
|||
|
|
really entertaining people, and donators).

The Moose #4 was a decoy. Random line noise. Congratulations to the
|
|||
|
|
people who tried to decode it. The REAL Moose #4 is on a disk, inside
|
|||
|
|
an encrypted .ZIP archive, to which we have forgotten the password.
|
|||
|
|
This is for the best.

In the DOOM file area, most of the files were actually FREE! You could
|
|||
|
|
have downloaded as much as you wanted, and at 1200 baud, if you really
|
|||
|
|
felt like it, thus keeping my board busy for the whole day! I never
|
|||
|
|
told you! Hahahahahahaha!

Oh, and yes, I probably would have hung up on you JUST when you were
|
|||
|
|
about one minute over your daily time limit. Then you could have
|
|||
|
|
called back and got something like this:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Enter your favorite alias: Lord Dweebie
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Passfnord: <20><><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD>

Sorry, your generous amount of time has expired.
|
|||
|
|
NO CARRIER
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And I would have laughed. Ho ho. Ha ha. He he.

Another Bloody BBS opened around October in 1992. Eeeeek! I feel old.
|
|||
|
|
At that time it was running on an 8mhz XT with a 20 meg hard drive.
|
|||
|
|
Later, I upgraded to a 12.5mhz 286 machine, and added a 16 meg drive.
|
|||
|
|
Eventually, both these drives were compressed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In August 1993, I bought a 486DX-50 with two 212 meg hard drives. I'm
|
|||
|
|
MUCH happier now.
