Formatting issues with Nuklear LORD using SyncTerm?

When I log into lord.nuklear.org, I get a lot of missing characters,
as though the formatting is screwed up.  This only seems to happen
with that site.  Has anyone else seen this issue?  I've tried
adjusting the baud rate, using 9600, 19200, or the default... nothing
works.

I don't see it at the login screen, and it hung up on me when I tried
creating a new account, so I can't get any further.

So I got my account details in the email, and I went far enough into
LORD to read the instructions and the story with no apparent drops.

Where exactly are you seeing the issue?

Every time I play the game, it appears.  In just about any area.  Here
are some [examples](http://imgur.com/a/EQvTr).  LORD doesn't do this
on other boards with SyncTerm, so it may be their server.  Also, here
are some of the configuration settings for Nuklear LORD and Wildcat
BBS (which works).

Edit:  If I telnet directly through the Terminal on OS X, it seems to
work fine.  I'm using a specially configured Terminal with ANSI escape
codes.

Does LORD support ANSI music?  I would be inclined to change that
setting to "ESC [ | only", or at least "BANSI Style".

I did, no luck.  I copied all the settings from Wildcat Castle BBS
over to Nuklear LORD.
