Full disclosure, I wrote this.

Just felt like it'd be my contribution to the BBS community.

Cheers!

Wow, this looks amazing. I wish I had the programming background to
actually utilize it; I'd love to deep dive into the Tele-Arena files
and finally figure out how experience is calculated/awarded, but
unfortunately it's all beyond my comprehension.

Thanks for helping keep BBS dreams alive!

Thank you! Definitely a labor of love.

The Tele-Arena source code is available in some of the MajorBBS
packages ([http://major.butt.care](http://major.butt.care)). While it
doesn't contain -ALL- the code (registration routine and what not are
still referenced by a static library), it does contain most of how the
calculation for players are done.
