A new article from PC Magazine states: "TradeWars 2002 is a space trading game based on a classic gaming formula: buy low and sell high. Mix in ship to ship combat and a horde of Star Trek references, and you have yourself a potently addictive strategy game. TW2002 originated as a [BBS door game](https://web.archive.org/web/20100000000000*/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBS_door_game) designed to run on dial-up [Bulletin Board Systems](https://web.archive.org/web/20100000000000*/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_board_system). It has since escaped its BBS shackles and made its way onto the Internet at large thanks to the [TradeWars Game Server](https://eisonline.classictw.com/). You can play TW2002 on dozens of free servers today. The author recommends the ICE9 server for starters, which can be reached via telnet at [ice9-tw.com port 2002](telnet://ice9-tw.com:2002)."

Make a look-alike bash prompt for Linux by adding this line of text to the end of your /home/username/.bashrc file... ``` PS1="\n\[\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\][\[\e[33;1m\]\T\[\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\]]:[\[\e[36;1m\]Megatron\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\]] (\[\e[33;1m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\[\e[35m\])? : \[\e[37;1m\]" ``` Save, logout and then log back in.  Tada.  Your prompt now looks like this... Here is what the prompt contains...  It's actually useful.  You're welcome.

I dont want to be playing the HHT at Christmas this year.So I sought out Advice from a few players and have come up with a solution. For Whatever reason the Game's TWA keeps aging So to Clarify the game will open with game age of 30 days. 1. The game will have an End Date 12/10/09 23:59:59 Server Time 2. In the Event the End Date is reached the following point system will be in used to determine a Winner. 100 points for every Captured planet that is level 5 or above that your corp owns. 15 points for every sector with at least 1 corp fig. 100 points for a port with at least 1 product upgraded to the max(fuel,org,equip) Buy or Sell. 50 points for every ship that has the Game start date as the Manufactured Date.That you own at the end of the game. No Buyouts In the Case of some Conflict ie double exturn or game data corruption The Game Moderators Decision is Final. (Game Moderator = ElderProphet ) also to be more clear There Is No Rules against Information Sharing. Mega Corping is defined by the Sharing of Hard Assetts ie.Figs.Credits,Citadels,Sectors. YES Mega Corping IS against the rules.

I've moved The Stardock to hosting outside of my own house for the first time ever. This shouldn't mean much to anyone but if you have a problem with TWGS Search, this might be why. TWGS Search should still be updating and running fine, but we won't know 100% for awhile. If you have problems, IM me (ICQ:7971550, AIM: EleqTriziT) and I'll take a look. Thanks.
