    I've been helping beta test the new 16bit version of BBS Tournament Wordle. This should be out to the public soon but in the meantime feel free to pop over to my retro Spitfire BBS and give it a go: http://x-bit.org/ftelnet/32bit_bbs.html

    For win32, win64, Linux, Pi sysops.. The game has most of you covered as well. --- SBBSecho 3.14-Win32
