Aw c'mon Herb, there aren't any multi-player rogue games
cuz there aren't enough cycles in the world to support
one???? Seriously, ya almost had me crying.

We have quite a good multi-user trek game running on our
IBM3081 here at BU, yeah, use is discouraged when there are
300 logins on the system but off-hours...hey, a cycle unused
is a cycle lost forever.

Besides, what about all those standalone UNIX boxes? Or do you
have a way of saving the unused cycles on those and using them
later?

A multi-user rogue would make an excellent, very challenging,
applied network project for an upper-class undergraduate.
(But don't give Herb a copy)
