 Explaining Tradewars in 2024Anybody tried explaining SST or even tradewars to
the younger crowd? My 17 y/o was baffled. It turns into quite an exercise, trying to lay it out before their eyes glaze over. _________________ #+++ The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. #--- |

Re: Explaining Tradewars in 2024 I have.
Showed my 12-year-old son Tradewars and it didn't take 2mins before he realized there were no graphics and lost all interest. It was like suggesting a book over a Movie. _________________ ---------------------------- -= QUANTUM Computing 101: 15 = 3 x 5 ... 48% of the time. -= There are 10 types of people in the world: Those that understand Binary and those who do not -= If Oil is made from Dinosaurs, and Plastic is made from Oil... are plastic Dinosaurs made from real Dinosaurs? -= I like to keep my friends and my enemies rich, and wait to see which is which - Tony Stark (R.I.P.) |

Re: Explaining Tradewars in 2024 Kids today would rather play Fortnite or Call of Duty. I'm amazed Trade Wars is still around.

Enough for me to keep it running. so who knows. -sk _________________ Star Killer USA(RETIRED) Loyalty Above All Else Except Honor Playing with integrity is more important than winning HHT 2015 Champs: Cloud09 2015 Lottery Tournament Winning Team Member 2016 Big Game Draft Tournament Winning Team Member HHT 2016 Champs: Cloud09 HHT 2021 Champs(Just For Showing Up) HHT 2022 Champs(For 90mins of Play) Star Killer's Ice9 TWGS Viper's Pit V1 TWGS Website: http://sk-twgs.com Email: starkillerstwgs@yahoo.com Discord: Star Killer#0358 Ice 9 V2 TWGS: SK-TWGS.COM PORT 2002 Viper's Pit V1 TWGS: V1.SK-TWGS.COM PORT 23 Now The Fastest TWGS in the West https://www.facebook.com/StarKillersTradeWars/ To help offset the server(s) hosting bill donate via PayPal to: starkillerstwgs@yahoo.com |
