    Hey

    I'm enjoying playing each day, and found the best honeypot for CASH. Yes,
    it's garycrunk himself LOL. Been stealing your money and upgrading my
    systems each day hehehe.

    I can burn through my turns pretty quickly, which is a good thing, as I
    often have a short attention span lol.

    One question though, the weapons powerlevel always seems to be 50, is
    that right? Or should it go down when I attack etc?

    I noticed you attacked me back last night lol, lucky I spent all the
    money i stole from you before i logged off :D:D:D

    Oh another question, how come I have to enter my real name every time I
    play? Just curious :)

    I know.. It's Ok... It's like Lays Potato Chip... Go ahead, We will make more.

    When you are attacking, the 50 you are seeing is YOUR Weapons Power Levels. The only way to increase those powers is in the Hackers Emporium.

    I would recommend getting lots of money (Attack Cash and Credit Cards), Pawn them, then go to Hackers Emporium and Increase power of your Firewall
    Breacher, then when you attack others, kill their Firewall first, then your wide open to get their goodies. Increase the power level of your other tools will make the attacks more effective.

    Oh another question, how come I have to enter my real name every time I play? Just curious :)

    I had it written that way, but I've since changed it. I was using DORINFO as the dropfile, but it only provides Alias/Handle: i.e. garycrunk. I have the program datafile store handle AND Full Name. I've since changed it over to
    use DOOR.SYS which provides both Alias/Handle: i.e. garycrunk AND User
    Name: i.e. Gary Crunk. So the program has access to that info in the Drop File...

    My Startrek game only requires Alias/Handle so I will stay with DORINFO on
    that "For Now"... I will probably change that...

    Ah of course, thanks :)

    Ok, thanks for the tips :D

    Just so you know, I went to play this morning and it had my real name in
    place, but was working like I was a new player, even though my old player
    is still there. I'm thinking it might have to do with changing the drop
    file?

    Also, I may have found a bug, but if you just hit enter on the region
    choosing screen, it allows you to place your base in Region 0, when you
    do that it just goes back to the select a region screen, so not sure if
    it's really a problem
