Tradewars.org) reported yesterday that in addition to Trade Wars making headlines at SlashDot, that it has also made news at Daily Radar.The release of Trade Wars: Dark Millenium is almost sure to help get the word out to former (and new) Trade Wars players that the original text game that they loved to play so long ago is still alive and thriving!

After being posted earlier today on slashdot, Tradewars: Dark Millenium has also made headlines over at Daily Radar. I’d also like to point out that the Tradewars: DM website will next be updated this Friday. Realm says that they’ll be adding a new FAQ, Screenshots, and discussion groups. No doubt today’s actions will help spread the word about the Original and upcoming versions of Tradewars.

A lot of people have been asking about the 4th Annual Trade Wars Awards recently…The 4th Annual Awards will be hosted by the Home Sector web site in the near future. A few of us were throwing ideas around at the end of 2000 and earlier this year about it and we hope to have it up shortly. As far as I know Wookie and myself will be directly involved; I’m unsure about others at this time.

There will be plenty of notice and time for nominations before the voting process begins. I don’t have an exact timeline for this project right now, but we would like to get it up ASAP. I will post more on this later as things progress.

Gypsy has posted a rather extensive response to Kitty Moon’s editorial concerning Aitvo’s interview from Sunday.

Necromancer’s Hard Drive just opened last Wednesday (February 14th). Here is some information I received from Andrew Bubb, the server administrator:“There are currently two games running, node size is set very high right now, I’m still waiting to see what my system can handle. The first game is 20K slightly modified, with a new planet design. Unlimited turns and 5 hour time limit. It’s somewhat of a super-sized game. A style that I’ve come across, and have enjoyed in the past few months of playing IP based TW.

The second game is a MBBS game of 5000 sectors based on what I remember were pretty much standard settings locally. 1000 turns, fairly convoluted universe, no time limit, standard starting point for figs, creds, etc. Advanced alien/ferrengi. Starts out 120 days ahead.

Both games were banged on 2/14/2001″

We were supposed to rebang some new stuff yesterday, but with my Internet connection troubles I wasn’t able to log on and work on them.We will bang those on Wednesday, be sure to check ’em out!

Kitty Moon interviewed Aitvo over the weekend. You can view the interview here. Very well done and interesting reading. :)If you didn’t already know, Aitvo is part of the Home Sector/Stardock BBS staff as well. I’m working on putting a staff page up on the site in the near future.
