I will need more information on your problem, so please contact me with as
much details
as possible, at ktidmore{at}bellsouth.net or gtidmore{at}hiwaay.net using Email. I don't
monitor Fidonet mail more than two times a month in general.

Pawn Shop was thoroughly tested by several bbs sysops, none of which ever reported
a problem like you describe.  Gem Trader was tested in the same manner.  I will be
working on Gem Trader in January 2005.  Are you saying that the problem is
when you simply go into the igm, do NOTHING, then immediately exit?  

Should someone have trouble with Barak's House, they are supposed to
contact Bryan Turner, who is a member of the Lord echo, and of Ruth
Argust's DoorGames echo.  And anyone having trouble with Marty's
Mercantile, can get assistance from
its author, Marty Blankenship, in both of those echoes or via email.

There is NO support for IGMs in either the Lord for Linux beta or the Lord
for Windows
beta.  I can NOT provide *ANY* support for my igms when they are run under Linux
since I don't use that operating system.  But I'll do the best I can to help you with
the problems you referred to.  At least one of my beta tester friends use Linux, so
perhaps they can check into the problem for me.

Michael Preslar has not released any news updates in several months regarding DOS
Lord, Lord for Linux, or Lord for Windows.  He also appears to have stopped paying
attention to the Lord or DoorGames echo for the past year.  If you need
support for LORD, you will have to get it from him directly.

The Linux version for LORD has NOT been released.  It is still in beta development,
and there is no download source for it.  The same situation applies to Lord
For Windows's beta.  Again, if you want help with Lord, talk to Preslar
personally.
