IIRC, Kim has said that BBBS does not support doors, but I have gotten a few to
work. Sadly I do not think I was able to get any of the doors you list above to 
work.  You should still try though, you might get lucky <g>

Most of the doors I =did= get to work are doors written specifically for BBBS 
(and there are not that many).  Here is the list of doors that run/or not, here 
with some notes :)

1) Worm        ----This was written for BBBS - works
2) BZRobots    ----This was written for BBBS - works
3) Star101     ----This was written for BBBS - works
4) MasterMind  ----This was written for BBBS - works 5) Van Race    ----This 
was written for BBBS - works
6) TimePort (Down currently) --- I had this running once, then some library 
changed :(  It may work on the version of Linux you run, I don't know. 7) 
TicTacToe (with SysOp) --- I don't think I ever got the ticktactoe games to 
work
8) TicTacToe v2 (with SysOp) --same as above 9) TicTacToe v3 (with SysOp) 
--sane as above 10) Gamble to add to your TimeBank! --This was written for BBBS 
11) HangMan  -------I modified this one, and it works for BBBS 12) Pimp Wars  
---- This one actually works as written for BBBS and it is not a door written 
for bbbs <grin>
13) Legion ---was working then died probably because of Library changes 14) BZ 
Draw! -------written for BBBS - works 15) Weather Door ---- I wrote this one, 
it works. 16) Magic Oracle ---- Sean Dennis wrote this one, and it works with 
BBBS.

If you can't find the doors written for BBBS anywhere, let me know, I should 
have the original zip files here -somewhere- <grin> - also the same with the 
version of Pimp Wars I'm running... I should have the original zip here 
someplace if you can't find it.

More later, I have to take care of something else right now...

Take care,
Janis
