It is kind of sad to see how many webpages vanished.
This includes old games. Many vanished. Some made a
cameo, coming back, but it is often no longer the
same. Case in point: The Reincarnation (TR), as a follow-up
to the old Mari Archmage (AM) game. It was great in the
late 1990s. Mari went bankrupt, TR came about and improved
on many things, but also made a few things worse. Player
population declined, then they had that genius "idea" to
add bots. That was when I retired. I can not want to be
bothered to "interact" with code.
