Nethack server online
December 30th, 2007
fun, games, softwareI normally play Nethack on nethack.alt.org (NAO) as ‘zem‘. I’ve been playing Nethack since 1990, and all 5 of my ascensions have been on NAO–once a year since 2003.
I think my recent ascension this month inspired some friends of mine to play again, and on NAO for the larger community experience–more “bones” files, ability to watch games, an IRC bot that announces every game’s ending. It’s been fun, but one friend lamented that the NAO high score list–which has 2000 entries on it, 20 times more than the default–is so packed that it basically requires an ascension to get on it.
So I installed nethack and the dgamelaunch software, and now pwanson.com has a ‘public’ nethack server. Just telnet pwanson.com port 4242 and hack away!
