true story:
I opened up `sail` on here the other day
and instantly realized I had made a mistake
I was in way over my head right from the beginning
but was also instantly in love with it
still have no idea how to play
but I've skimmed the man page a couple times
it's also kind of a hard thing to google
i'll have to try it again some time soon

Just giving this thread a bump for the new bbj peoples. The post refers to
games installed on tilde.team, but as bbj is shared between several tildes you
may be connecting from elsewhere. Bug your admin if you want more games!
