This weekend will be a slow one for updates. I will be out of town and in Pennsylvania for the remainder of the weekend. I will be back on Monday with a full weekend update (that is, if anything happens <G>). See you then!
TWGS Version 1.01.41 Released!
by Fuseblown on 2001-02-03 | Categories: TradeWars.ws, TradeWars News, TWGS Software
That's right! Few minor TWGS changes have been made in this one. Global admin changes and an attempt to fix problems with the log file. For the actual game (TWv3)...a mail file fix has been made this time around and also changes to the timing of cloak failures! [**Click here**](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://eisonline.classictw.com/) to get the official update from EIS.
Can't Reach StarDock BBS?
by Fuseblown on 2001-02-02 | Categories: TradeWars.ws, TWGS Servers
EleqTrizi'T was away for a few days and the IP addresses got switched on him when he was unable to do anything about it. Here is his ICQ message: *"I apologize to everyone. I was out of town in Vegas since Sunday when the IP changed. "
Time Limit Bug
by Fuseblown on 2001-02-02 | Categories: TradeWars.ws, TradeWars News, TWGS Servers
The time limit bug seems to have hit again.
Someone CBY'd before extern (which occurs at midnight EST) with 5 minutes of game play time left in the day...he came back 10 minutes after extern was done running and his daily time limit had NOT reset. He still had 5 minutes or less left to play for all of today. The time should have reset after extern.
Thought this was fixed??
Anyway, John Pritchett will be notified (we don't have caps but I can explain it just as good as caps can show), I just wanted to let everyone know who ran/played a daily time-limited game...this could very well be a concern that arises if the problem is still around for the USO (since it is a time-limited game).
The Deep South To Upgrade
by Fuseblown on 2001-02-02 | Categories: TradeWars.ws, TradeWars News, TWGS Servers
When I logged on to play my League turns tonight I saw that Stonewall posted a message on the main menu of [**The Deep South TWGS**](telnet://thedeepsouth.yi.org) that he was purchasing a RAM upgrade with the donations that he has received. Way to go Stonewall! Now that's what donating is all about, helping out the admins that put these servers up for us to play free‑of‑charge (well, 95% of time).
If you play on a server and would like to donate to them, check out the [**Donation List**](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://www.tradewars.ws/donations.htm) here at TRADEWARS.WS and see if the appropriate server is listed there.
If you run a TWGS system (or even web site, or both..), send me the proper information needed (as found on the [**Donation List**](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://www.tradewars.ws/donations.htm) page) and I will put you up there with the others. It's the least I can do to help out.
Two Weeks Until USO 2001 Begins
by Fuseblown on 2001-02-01 | Categories: TradeWars.ws, TradeWars News
There are currently 16 teams signed up for the United States Open 2001 at the present time. If you haven't already signed up, [**do so now**](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://tradewars.fament.com/guardian/uso%2701.htm)! If you do not have a team, post a message in one of the many forums out there (there is a link at the bottom of the right-hand column to sign up for *tradewars_2002* eGroup--or Yahoo!Group, which ever you prefer to call it). There are still a few players who have a couple of spots to fill! Time is running out! [](mailto:fuseblown@tradewars.ws)
Look Out Florida, It's Aitvo!

Aitvo, our beloved administrator of Intergate BBS, is now en route to his new home in Florida. He says he'll be back in about a week. Good luck with the move Andrew!
Mana Knight Does It Again

This guy always manages to crack people up and this time he did it just by reposting some of his past articles from the year 2000. Go check out Mana's "[**10 Most Humorous Articles of 2000**](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://www.tradewars.org/articles/10best2000.shtml)." Bring back the "Word of the Day" Mana!!
Timberwolf Posts Personal Site on Web

Click here to view it. To me, this is always good. I like reading things about the people I play Trade Wars with. Since we're all from different walks of life (used car salesmen, IT professionals, state representatives in Congress, etc.), it's always interesting to read things about players that you would have never expected about them. If you haven't already noticed, I posted a **[personal web site of my own](https://web.archive.org/web/20010000000000*/https://www.tradewars.ws/fuseblown/)** when I put up the new redesign of TRADEWARS.WS.
