The AtariLink Directory - Last updated 31 Dec 1994
This file is not maintained by, overseen by, endorsed, or otherwise
associated with Atari Corp. or any of its subsidiaries. It's a
listing of Atari users maintained by myself only. I also didn't
even write this warning or the Jag logo, they're from R. Jung's
Jaguar FAQ. =)
BTW, since this IS the AtariLink Directory, I'm open to including
the ST if enough people tell me they're interested. Keep in
mind that I know -nothing- about the system, though. All I
know is that Midi Maze is a great multiplayer game... Any other
ST games link up like this?
Info first, description later. =)

BTW, the names comprising the "box" are simply titles that I'm
pretty sure are going to use the network and/or modem, but I
could be wrong, you know.

"What is the AtariLink Directory?"
One of the greatest features of Atari's line of products is their
link-ability. The Lynx allows up to 8 players to compete
against each other simultaneously. The Jaguar has the ability
for players to compete via networked game or over the modem.
The AtariLink Directory is a way for anyone with e-mail access
to hook up and play. For networked games all you need to do is
look for someone on the list who lives in an area near you (or an
area you'll be visiting) and drop them an e-mail message to set up
a time and place to get together and Link up! Modem games are even
easier as they're only a phone call away. You don't have to
give out any personal information, just your e-mail address and
what area you live in. Mail you get about Linking up can be
handled in any way you want, including ignoring it if you're
in a bad mood. =)
TO ADD OR UPDATE YOUR ENTRY:
Just send e-mail to btribble@ocf.berkeley.edu and include your
e-mail address, name, and area that you live in. From now on
I'm only handling the "short" listing of people as the "long"
listing was starting to be difficult to manipulate. I'd be
happy to include a one-line message under your name, though.
Users of outside services that can access Internet mail such
as CompuServe, America Online, GEnie, etc. are welcome to join.
For friends who want to join but don't have an e-mail address,
include your e-mail address for referrals.
The latest version of the directory can be viewed by fingering
"btribble.link@ocf.berkeley.edu". A copy of a recent version
of the list is also at Andy Eddy's (vidgames@netcom.com - an
extremely nice guy, BTW) FTP site at ftp.netcom.com in
pub/vi/vidgames/faqs. If you are looking for a FAQ chances are
it's there. Also, here's the plug for his magazine - read
Gamepro! =)
MISC:
Some things I'm wondering about are:
Does one need the Atari voice modem to play modem games, or can you
use a regular computer modem as a substitute? I have a USR 14.4
Sportster external, so that's mainly why I'm asking here... =)
Can one play modem games over the Internet, allowing savings of
long-distance phone bills?
The main problem with this is that the Jaguar has no terminal
program (so far =) and I don't know what connecting through a
PC, unscrewing your cable, and attaching it to your Jag would
do. There's a lot of if's here, and actually I doubt this would
work, but it's neat idea...
