    You're making a mistake with that decision, sir. As the SysOp of PiBBS, I am almost required to to say that.

    Also, I'm also hoping you get to do this!

    Give Mystic Guy/Avon a few days to get back from his 'vacation' before you start, okay? (^_^)

    I'm of the general opinion that you should rename to PIMMs... can I have that with some Ginger Ale?

    I have a BBS on a Pi and use BBSLink.net and Door Party (http://wiki.throwbackbbs.com/doku.php) for doors. They're hosted elsewhere but still appear as a menu item on your own BBS, so you get the benefit of being able to play the game with others while not having to emulate a dos environment on the Pi. This method also allows the doors to be available over SSH which is a problem I ran into when running on Windows.

    I'm running on a Pi 4 which boots from a 250GB "PiDrive" which is a USB connected spinning hard drive.

    And, you get a larger gaming community. No point in running multi-player
    games if you don't have multiple players.

    One of the things I haven't done with my BBS in over 30 years of running it
    is set up one of those league-based multi-BBS games. I should try one to see how hard it is to set up.

    Yup, exactly this. When I first came back to the scene I wanted to run all of my own doors, but like you said, with no one else to play with it kind of defeated the purpose. Now that I'm on BBSLink & Door Party I have all the benefits of an interbbs league without all the extra configuration.
