The door server just cracked 1000 logons. If you haven't already, go make an account and join us in the games AA put up to play.

So, not sure if you're interested in adding anything else to the server, AA, but thought I'd post a link: http://archives.thebbs.org/index.html .
Tons of lord IGM's, I wouldn't even be able to begin figuring out what's what. There's also a bunch of freeware utils/games, if you feel like playing around with it at all.
Another link: http://thebbs.org/ambroshia/Quests.htm
Quests for ambroshia. We're unregistered, and I don't see a point as of yet, but I've been maxed out on where I'm fighting for the last week. Some new quests would add another element for me, plus let the newer people do something other than the same quest I've done every day.
LORD is all new to me, I've never played a recently registered game I suppose, because I've never had to work with the str/def requirements when buying equipment. I wasted 30+ potions on hps day one...sigh..wish I'd known.
Anyone have anything to add?

Ambroshia is fun as hell - even with the lackadaisical way it's coded and worded.
I've never played a LoRD version like the one we have, no input there.
Usurper has been fun in the past - but Ambroshia is an awful lot like it. Plus Usurper has been abandoned by the programmer, and has numerous issues.
Food Fight is always fun.
Cripple Smash is an interesting game - I remember playing it all the way through back before the net. Broke my spacebar. Having to find the secret words to perform stronger attacks is intriguing.
Also always liked Barren Realms Elite. I know there's a collection of BBSes with tournaments between them, for added competition.

Never played Ambroshia but i'll get into it real soon. I wouldnt mind having a registered copy. I might buy it in a few months. I think i can install some quests. The unregistered limitations arnt to hampering. When we buy it we'll upgrade to 4.5 or maybe even 5.0 if it's out.
LORD -
I've installed one lord IGM already. Looking at the list i guess i'll just pick fun sounding ones. I'll try to keep our IGM list to around 6. We can test and remove them as the game goes on.
Usurper - Thanks hobo_bill . i won't bother installing it. :P
Whats the T-LORD style of play?

T-lord has an ending date, not sure what else is changed in the current version. Of course, having an end date is kind of useless, because there's no "prize" to give out, since access is free and all. I know in this one there's strength req's for weapons, not just cost, defense stat for armor. You get both when killin' ppl, even if they're level 1, so mass pvp is the way to go. Scratch logs on everyday at 12:02 and kills everyone he can, so he's out to a pretty big lead. As far as IGM's, we gotta make sure there aren't any crazy, unbalance the game like mad ones. I'd like to try a bunch out, get some set, let ppl learn all about them, then maybe wipe the game and restart, so everyone has a fair shot. Just a thought.
Anyways...I was thinking of looking for a new ANSI graphic instead of the "synchro" pic ya got now, will look for it tonight when I wake up, if no one else beats me to it. Anyone know of a windows version of something similar to aciddraw? Holla.

Annoying as hell. I wasted 400k gold the first day buying stuff I couldn't use because I wasn't paying attention to that.
I'd like to see ambrosia have more players so we could get the kingdom/nobleman aspect of it going more, although embezzling 50m+ gold a day IS pretty nice as a ruler.
