That Warcraft one is kind of interesting in how you collect resources -- chopping down trees, making bread by bailing corn and cooking it, etc. It's pretty annoying but I like the general idea. Thanks for making those available.

Oh man, I remember getting that Warcraft one off of zzt.org and playing it - I must have been like 12 or 13 then? It's probably worse than I remember it, but the nostalgia is what matters right now.

Also, I just realized that we're still missing two games: The Story of Bob (Bob.zip) and Dragon (Dragon.zip). Lancer linked to bob.zip and dragon.zip, which are games we already have (case-sensitivity causing the confusion).

To state that again, we are looking for The Story of Bob, not Ledgend of Bob Complete, and we are looking for Dragon, not Dragon Eye.

I don't seem to have 'Story of Bob', and the only other 'Dragon' game I've got is a 25k SZZT game called DRAGON.SZT

on that note why the hell does z2's upload script not check to make sure you're not overwriting any files?

or didn't you fix that before

I'm just remembering months ago getting an e-mail about this guy whose game got overwritten.

Wait, wait... Do the overwrites you're talking about occur when the game is uploaded, or when the game is added to the database?

I'll make a test and see if anybody fixed it.

Edit: You can overwrite a game in the submitted section.

And can't add a game to the database if the .zip name matches something.

I recall downloading and playing a game called "Virus of ZZT". (VIRUS.ZZT) But nowadays I just can't seem to find it anywhere.
