Got a few new things on the BBS...

* Ambroshia: Test of Time v4.5 - REGISTERED
* Esterian Conquest v1.50 - REGISTERED
* Leviathan's Reef - REGISTERED
* Lots of other custom mods: news, weather, and sixel-enabled image
galleries

Special shout out and big thanks to The Fool's Quarter BBS for making
this latest version of Esterian Conquest available and registerable!

Port 23, naturally.

Could not connect with the BBS this morning or most of yesterday.
Fool's Quarter BBS isn't connecting either - sysop thinks Windows
update may be culprit

Odd. My board is definitely up and accepting calls. Had about a dozen
calls yesterday and 3 so far today. I don't run the same version OS
that Fool's Quartier does, so Windows update seems doubtful.

PM me your outward facing IP address and I'll make sure it wasn't
inadvertently blacklisted. Also try to connect to other BBSes besides
mine and Fool's to rule out a possible issues with outbound telnet on
your end.

Finally, please send correspondence via email instead of this reddit
post, since I'm less likely to see it here and respond timely. I can
be reached at codefenix(at)conchaos(dot)synchro(dot)net.

I just learned that the ftelnet proxies were apparently down for a
portion of yesterday and today. So if you were accessing the BBS via
the webpage, that's why you weren't able to connect. Lots of BBSes
with ftelnet terminals on their websites use the same proxies, so
that's why Fool's was similarly impacted. Likely many others.

In any case, looks like ftelnet is back up.

Check out SyncTERM if you want a dedicated telnet program for BBSes,
and you won't have this problem. :)
