""Nuclear Destruction" PBM Game" Topic

I know that Flying Buffalo does not show this game on their website, but is anyone still playing it?

I played a fair number of PBM games in the 1970s and would like to try it again if anyone is still running games of it on the net.

Thanks,

Dan

Rick still offers the game actually, he just doesn't sell the rules on the main page, here is a link with the options and cost amounts.

I'm an Ex-Buffalo (That's a ex-buffalo employee) and I punched turns in for hundreds of NucDest games on that old Raytheon 500 server we used to use. It had every memory upgrade avalable… all 8 k. The most important part of the computer was a clothes pin. We used to use paper punch tape to record the game data on, and the uptake reel was broken, the clothes pin had just enough tension to keep the paper punch tape on the reel, but not enough to keep the reel from turning…

This was in 80's by the way, Rick really got his money's worth out of the Raytheon…

I am surprised that (if I'm reading it right), that PBEM is not offered.

I spent far too much time playing those games. After oe game (SW-9) ended I bought all the back up paperwork to see what my enimies had been doing. I finally tossed those aged yellowed sheets of printouts about a year or so….

Ah, such memories.
