oh it's backed up via btsync to three different machines in the cluster on a continual basis. if the machine got hit by a bomb we would lose at most ~10 seconds of gameplay

i forgot what its called but the hotkey is t and you fight a dude
only level up if your clearing the forest without taking damage though so your equipment is good enough for the next level

oh btw i made that telnet test more useful if you dont think you can get out on port 219 at all or whatever and needed to test since we were confused about that yesterday, i just daemonized this and its not interactive, it just spits back text if you are good

telnet yospos.net 219

that's separate from the BBS, on my server, just a quick sanity check - go start > run > cmd then type the above or in terminal.app whatever.

just for those who like yesteday couldnt figure out if network issues or what were preventing connecting successfully

i'm running fine in SyncTERM, but i just tested what you mentioned about Sniep in Terminal, and i got:

Trying (ip address)...
Connected to yospos.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection Successful - PORT 219 IS OPEN
Connection closed by foreign host.

yeah lol, that is all it does. it isn't for anyone except for ppl who are having trouble connecting to determine if they can get out on the port at all, or if its something with the bbs, or if their syncterm is goofed or whatever. (see back to the chatter on mid page 4)

not that its important, but i half assed it before so i just wanted to clean it up / finish it haha

in the BBS there is a "scores" option and you can pick lord 1 to see the game status, but it doesnt explicitly show that
