 Re: Worst player in TW currently?
Just curious, as a new user (on this board), am I allowed to talk smack here yet?
If so, I might have a few things to say about all you kids using helpers and scripts, over unlimited-bandwidth connections...back in *my* day, I logged in from a Macintosh Plus, over a 2400-baud modem, and mapped the universe by hand...and I LIKED IT ;)

2400 pffft... I started with a 300 baud acoustic coupler... like the one in the movie "War Games" where you have to actually put the phone handset in the cradle... On a RadioShack TRS-80 Color Computer!

 Re: Worst player in TW currently?
Hard to say who the worst player is. Throughout the history of my game play, I've played with some very inexperienced players that ended up better than I was because the listened and learned. The worst players were those that think they knew it all from the start and never got any better. The main reason I posted this was to see if Mob still had me on the restricted list and if I had to be approved for every post after 4 months.

 Re: Worst player in TW currently?
I learned to play from one of the original telegraph operators who invented it right after the Civil War (this was before they started calling it the internet). Originally it was played by Morse code and the older players frowned upon anyone not using an old fashioned key. After the paddle keys came out it basically ruined the game.

Glad to see you're back big Duh. Hopefully goat Fudger is treating you kindly.
