Re: TSR-manipulated ZZT with extended support?
It would be nice to have this running recorded in some way. What does it mean "implement scrolling"? Like between boards?

Re: There is a band named ZZT
Fun fact, or not, from me being Commodore adjacent, but one half of that duo, Zombie Nation, was sued by David Whitaker for ripping off his tune from a C64 game. Kernkraft is probably the most popular song of ZNs career, getting regular play in sports stadiums. Slight bit of irony that the original ...

Re: T637 ?
Yeah, repairs are in progress. PHP's original MySQL library finally transitioned from deprecated to removed, which means a bunch of site code needs to be updated. I hate the mobile view of newer phpbb Is it a functional or aesthetic issue? If it's the latter, I'm open to installing a theme or two. ...

Re: The Reconstruction of ZZT
Very cool. Did you do this entirely by hand from the disassembly? It was Turbo Pascal right? Can you only compile it with DOS, or is there a compiler that might get us a 64bit arch executable? Sorry I can't look at the zip, phone internet for me ATM.

Re: Bad Apple!! ZZT
Wow! Interesting watching when the board transitions happen. Presentation is great too, could have been just the animation, but the movie screen effect is a nice touch. Seriously impressive coding.
I love it. Please put it in the uploads folder!

ICANN sold .org control to private equity firm.
Price protections for .org domain names are set to lapse. Safest bet according to some sources it best to max out on ten year registration before the price skyrockets. Maybe the near end for zzt.org (z2 edition)? https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/11/private-equity-firm-buys-org-domain-months-...

Re: fantasy-style language in earliest ZZT games
A grue is a creature from Zork that lives in the dark. If you are in a dark room without a light you get the message: "It is dark. You might be eaten by a grue." There is a miniscule chance you will just die in a dark room basically. So as darkstar says, text adventures were probably an inspiration ...
