Wow, I just read this whole thing. My plan is to install it soon and then come back here immediately and complain about something j/k

Now, to the reason I'm posting:
Someone made a suggestion about "pay to play"; but they were thinking arcade style .50 per play, etc. While that would probably rack up the cash, it really wouldn't give too many reason to play these old school games when they're available for free elsewhere, despite them possibly being loyal. My suggestion: they might be willing to pay a subscription fee much easier. Since John said he'll be incorporating usergroup permissions into the games, you can use that along with vb3's integrated subscription system to give users access to games for certain periods of time. Makes it simple for them (probably cheaper too), but you'll most likely get a better response as well. Just my 2c.

Can someone start a separate thread and just write descriptions for these games for people who aren't familiar with them?

I saw both John and futureal mention something about BBS games (futureal said he would try to incorporate them in a java-based way), but you both seem to be familiar with them - can either of you PM me a site or two that might have these? I'm a huge fan of some of those back in the day and am looking for a few that I've lost along the way.

One other thing - do these games all come with playing instructions?

Thanks to anyone who can help answer my questions.
