Announcement of PBM ftp site in Holland From: frits@cp.tn.tudelft.nl (Frits Kuijlman) Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1993 08:56:21 +0000 Well folks, I decided that is was time for Yet Another Ftp Site. The contents of this ftp site will mainly consist of info about pbm and pbem games. I will try to put as much interesting info here as possible. This site is not intended as an archive of news from rec.games.pbm. However, I will be archiving the bigger files like the PBM list and Greg Lindahl's PBEM Fanzine. At the moment many of the regions I created are almost empty, but one can always hope for more. The address is : ftp.cp.tn.tudelft.nl Directory : /pub/pbm Please send submission to : pbm-info@cp.tn.tudelft.nl As you all can guess I created this archive for purely selfish reasons. I intend to play in the first Legends game I can get into, so I can use all the information I can get :-) Below follows the 0README file I put in. I hope this is of any use, Frits Welcome to the PBM Info ftp region. This directory contains any info I can get on PBM and PBEM games. For the time being it will probably mostly information from rec.games.pbm. Current setup : . General stuff that doesn't need its own directory confirmed Confirmed information ftp.erg.sri.com Mirror of that site(I hope mirror works :-)) legends Anything I can get on Legends olympia Information on Rich Skrenta's Olympia I (not II!) pbem.fanzine Backissues of Greg Lindahl's PBEM Fanzine unconfirmed Unconfirmed information Now, before you start downloading everything just read the following. This ftp site is run on a computer that is normally used for other things than answering ftp requests. (Like reading news and playing nethack :-)) So please don't jump in and blindly download everything. Just browse around and take the things that interest you. This especially goes for the Olympia region. Please read the 0README there also. That directory is HUGE! A final note, if anybody has some info he wants to share with the rest of the world (and me!) please mail it to : pbm-info@cp.tn.tudelft.nl. For simple announcements it might be better if you post them to rec.games.pbm, but things like game documentation are welcome here. (I still have several megabytes to spare). Enjoy!
