IIRC, Kim has said that BBBS does not support doors, but I have gotten a few to
work. Sadly I do not think I was able to get any of the doors you list
above to work.  You should still try though, you might get lucky 

Most of the doors I =did= get to work are doors written specifically for
BBBS (and there are not that many).  Here is the list of doors that run/or
not, here with some notes :)

1) Worm        ----This was written for BBBS - works
2) BZRobots    ----This was written for BBBS - works
3) Star101     ----This was written for BBBS - works
4) MasterMind  ----This was written for BBBS - works 5) Van Race   
----This was written for BBBS - works
6) TimePort (Down currently) --- I had this running once, then some library
changed :(  It may work on the version of Linux you run, I don't know. 7)
TicTacToe (with SysOp) --- I don't think I ever got the ticktactoe games to
work
8) TicTacToe v2 (with SysOp) --same as above 9) TicTacToe v3 (with SysOp)
--sane as above 10) Gamble to add to your TimeBank! --This was written for
BBBS 11) HangMan  -------I modified this one, and it works for BBBS 12)
Pimp Wars  ---- This one actually works as written for BBBS and it is not a
door written for bbbs 
13) Legion ---was working then died probably because of Library changes 14)
BZ Draw! -------written for BBBS - works 15) Weather Door ---- I wrote this
one, it works. 16) Magic Oracle ---- Sean Dennis wrote this one, and it
works with BBBS.

If you can't find the doors written for BBBS anywhere, let me know, I
should have the original zip files here -somewhere-  - also the
same with the version of Pimp Wars I'm running... I should have the
original zip here someplace if you can't find it.

More later, I have to take care of something else right now...

Take care,
Janis
