Just having a moment of nostalgia here..
Anyone remember having a multi-player D&D/MUD like game dial-up
service in their city? I'm thinking around 1985 or earlier... it was
some sort of a timeshare system with 8/16/24 ports that people could
dial in to at an hourly rate and play. As I recall it was some sort of
franchise and we had one here in Milwaukee (414 area code) that was
quite popular- I believe it was called Sceptre, but I'm not sure if that
was the name of the game/world/town, etc.
Just wondering what kind of hardware & software was hosting this game;
it was quite addictive (or perhaps I was mesmerized by trying to use an
80-column terminal on a C64).
Thanks,
