Just wanted to say hello – just made an account.
Some relevant bits about me: the first game I ever bought was Zork, which I played on my IIc. I played most all of the infocom games, even well after they started adding graphics (want some rye? course you do!). Then a long hiatus from IF, dropping back in in 2001 or so. I’ve been voting in the ifcomps since soon after that. Last year I finally messed around with creating a game using inform. I think I’m going to get a little more serious about that now. I’m finding all the discussion about parser vs. non IF fascinating, and I sure wish I’d been chatting with you guys for the last 20 years.
Thanks for having me.
