MajorBBS Game? reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -0-v-0- · 2021-12-07 23:09 There was this one game where you would enter some kind of saloon and chat and then you could challenge people to duels with pistols and shotguns. Anyone remember what this was? Can't recall if it was a game or an addon to a chat module. I \*think\* it was on MajorBBS... Edit: It was "Brawl" or the GunFighter addon! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- anras2 · 2021-12-07 23:27 Never heard of that one, but the chat nature of it, and the fact that it's MajorBBS (although you're not sure it was that BBS software, but let's assume that for the time being), makes me think of Tele-Arena or Tele-Mage - the latter of which was a favorite of mine but hardly anyone remembers it. So I wonder if it begins with the same prefix. If it has a western/saloon/shootout theme then maybe Tele-Saloon, Tele- Shootout, Tele-Gunfight or something similar? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- soobardo · 2021-12-08 00:14 There was a Far-west game for MajorBBS called 'Mother Lode!' by ISV Blaze Tech (saw that on a Majornews ad). I never play/found it. "Tele- Mage" was teleconference game with Wizards shooting and blocking themselves through timed combos. Could play solo against AI. That one by ISV Infocomm. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- soobardo · 2021-12-08 00:19 Oh found the teleconference addon "GunFighter" (aka Brawl). You had commands like DRAW, SHOOT, HOLSTER. This one was by Infinetwork ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -0-v-0- · 2021-12-08 00:29 Ah, yeah, that's it. Brawl! Thanks! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Equal_Palpitation_26 · 2021-12-08 01:00 God, bbs games were the best! Tradewars!!! Lotrd!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- liquidporkchops · 2021-12-08 03:57 Tradewars was my favorite, especially with Tradewars Helper. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- iblizzard · 2021-12-08 12:56 I had completely forgotten about this until this post! I remember writing macros to grab COLT45 and shoot. What a huge wave of nostalgia! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- kbuzz99 · 2021-12-12 01:25 No one did chat like MajorBBS did. They were so far ahead. Much of the rest of the system was lacking but teleconference was amazing. The teleconference games were second to none as well. TBBS’ UltraChat module was amazing but it came out too close to the end of the BBS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- xSlash5x · 2021-12-16 06:37 Ahhhhh Brawl. I lived for the game in the teleconference chat BBS world. View inventory. Grab shotgun. Load. Aim (insert name) while aiming, type view inventory to see your aim. Would rank from poor to crack shot. On crackshot, shoot dbl. would then shoot both rounds of shotgun. Usually would 1 shot an opponent with crackshot. Grab chair. Throw. Grab gattlingun. Load. (Would take forever to load that gun). Then on macro aim (insert name) shoot. Then repeat fast. Haha. Awwwww good times. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dougvondoom · 2022-09-05 14:43 Dewd was just reminiscing about this saloon chat game. It was awesome! I used to play it on Stargate BBS out of Merrillville, IN. Another Mudd I loved playing on a BBS was trying to escape an asylum. Good times. Good times.
