Lots of games look for drop files.  2 things go on here.  1  Mystic logs onto the Game Server... then 2 the game server runs all the doors, Mystic becomes more passive while GameSRV becomes the work horse, it deals with all the drop files.

Logon to my BBS.... though I use Synchronet now as a game server, it  works the same way.... Mystic logs into Synchronet and then Synchronet works its magic on the doors.
