About the only people that I know of who did WT-LORD IGMs, who you can still
get in contact with, are Janet Terry and Joseph Watson. One can't get Joseph's
programs from his wtlord software web-site any more, since it was shut down
sometime earlier this year. He can still be reached by email at jwatson (at)
suddenlink.net however. This info is direct quote from him from a recent Nov
2009 email message I got from him:
"My BBS is online .... same as always. bbs.farpointbbs.com or 66.76.56.123
I still support my programs but currently only release new stuff for my
personal BBS. JW"
Janet Terry stopped doing bbs programming well over 2 years ago. All of the
known wtlord igms that have been released as of 2 years ago, can be downloaded
from my Camelot FDN site at
http://camelot.filegate.net/wtlord/ .
Or from
http://www.nightfallgames.com/files/WTLord/.
I'm about the only person still working on igms for LORD. Pretty much everyone
else that I know of stopped doing LORD programs over 2 years ago. A lot of
people blame Preslar for that situation since he stopped encouraging people to
write Lord programs. A lot of that blame though also has to be
placed on Metropolis Gameport who provide absolutely no support whatsoever to
people who register the LORD games. They take the money and then do nothing
for you. They don't pay Michael Preslar much, if anything, so he
has little motivation to work on the LORD games. Donald
