3188.0. "Play by Phone Games - Harvard, MASS. Area" by Z::TENNY (Dave Tenny DTN 291-8013) Wed Dec 06 1989 12:48

Can't hurt to ask.  A series of these topics on a per town
basis might be fun, but Mr. Moderator, feel free to delete
this note if not appropriate.

I'm looking for Amiga game players for play-by-phone games
in the Harvard MASS local calling area.  I know one such person,
soon to be moving.  Right now I only have POPULOUS for PBP games,
but I'm considering others.

If anybody lives in the local calling area (and I mean LOCAL,
as in no charge, yeah,  I'm cheap), how about replying here.
We can exchange phone numbers by email and spend a few nights
tromping each other in alternate universes.

    Why not post this note in the Atari ST notes file?  Many of our
    favorite games allow hookup to the ST, such as Falcon, Populous, Jet!,
    etc.

    Hi Dave,
    
    I'm interested.  I live up in Ayer, which is a local call to/from
    Harvard.  Please add me to your list.   Populous is the only PBP game I 
    have so far.
    
    thanks,
    dennis

I live in Bolton, and my son would like to play.  We own no PBP games right
now, but might be induced to if there was someone to play with.

RE: .1 - good idea, I'll consider it though at the moment
I don't even subscribe to that conference.  Feel free to 
point them towards the idea of contacting AMIGA'ers for games
if you have time.  (Keywords would sure help on these things,
were they ever enabled for this conference?  As you can guess,
I'm not a frequent amiga noter).

re: .2, .3
I'll send mail with phone numbers, etc..  I have a SCHOLAR modem.
A bit of trivia, I wasn't able to get POPULOUS to work when one
person uses a scholar, and the other a scholar plus.  But the other
person lacked the manual, so perhaps there's a switch for 
compatability.

Thanks for the replies, any more takers?  It's fun to know
who the nearby amiga owners are.

    re 4.:
    I use a Scholar (not PLUS) modem.
