    From Tim Whitson@1:340/500 to All on Sunday, November 08, 2020 18:37:34
    Has anyone been able to register Ambroshia in the last several months? I've emailed them twice and have gotten no replies.

    I think the author died. But I wonder if Deuce can reverse engineer the Win32 version.

    Deuce last conversed with the Ambroshia author in March of this year. Was fine and alive at that time.

    The incommunicado leads to weird rumors. I think I read something weird on the author's abandoned project message board.
    Heck, people wouldnt mind giving 15 bucks for codes for the game.

    I sent an email a couple of days ago offering to take over registrations and costs to run the webpage. I told them I'd send them $10 out of every $15 registration just to keep it alive. I don't program but there are people out there that do. Still crickets.

    That is pretty awesome. I have a registered key but I wouldn't mind getting BBSLINK setup with one. I'd pay the fee. I love the game and would like to play other people.

    Thanks for letting me know.

    I thank the author for doing that, although I am still happy to tip authors with a donation.
