  2. This one is the first adventure. thank you for posting the disk image with all of the adventures on it.
  3. This was a fun trip down memory lane. Pirate adventure finally solved. I have four of these adventures on cassette. Will try “strange odyssey” next. Depending on if I can get it to load. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Hi mizapf, I think with your dedication to playing all of these adventures, you surely should participate. I think if you repeat your adventuring during the month of March, it should count towards this contest.
  5. That sounds great. I will select the winner based on points scored across the various Scott Adams adventures during the month of March. So play whatever of these adventures you like. It is really cold and snowy here in Colorado today. Perfect day for adventuring.
  6. Already stuck. Happy Friday everyone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. be sure to listen to this classic while playing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Chisholm_Trail#
  10. Well, come along boys and listen to my tale I'll tell you all my troubles on the ol' Chisholm Trail Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. I started up the trail October twenty-third Started up the trail with the U-2 herd Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. On a ten dollar horse and a forty dollar saddle Started out punchin' them long horn cattle Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. With my seat in the saddle and my hand on the horn I'm the best dang cowboy that was ever born Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. It's cloudy in the west and lookin' like rain And my danged old slicker's in the wagon again Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. The wind began to blow and the rain began to fall And it looked like we were gonna lose 'em all Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. No chaps, no slickers and it's pouring rain I swear I'll never night herd again Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. I cripple on my horse and I don't know how Roping these long horn U-2 cows Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. Well, I went to the boss to draw my roll And the boss had me fugured nine dollars in the hole Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. Well, me and the boss we had a little spat So I hit him in the face with my ten gallon hat Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. The boss said to me, ''Well, I'll fire you Not only you but the whole darn crew.'' Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. I'll sell my horse, I'll sell my saddle And you can drive all your long horn cattle Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea. Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea
  11. This was one of the games I had as a kid. I often got it confused with Tombstone City. Neither one of them really got my interest back then. Probably because Parsec, Munch Man, and Tunnels of Doom were so awesome. And Football. Now that we get to focus on it for the game of the month, I'm finding it quite fun. I like how the enemies change with each day, kinda like in Munch Man. I now know what a "day" is, and how to actually move from one day to the next. I didn't figure that out until this week. I want to give the enemies names.. like "backwards shooting crossbow guys" and "infinite ladders"...you'll see as you unlock them. Good luck everyone. Now that we have survived Valentines Day, we can get back to some retrocomputing awesomeness.

  18. It turns out there must be a limit on the number of files in a directory. Once i created a few more folders and put less files in each directory, i could find perfect push in the TI menus.
  19. Interesting game. Not used to playing in emulation! 1799 level 2 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
