I know I'm long winded, so in hopes that you hang around long enough
to read the whole post, I'll throw you a bone and give you a free game
right from the start. It's call Chasm; it's a VMLTA hack-n-slash
adventure/platformer game of some sort. You can redeem the key (which
you get in the DNND9 usual way, if you're eagle-eyed enough) on Steam.
There; you got your treat.D5IJQ Now keep reading! ;-)
 

Maybe we need a lottery?  I know that's a lot more work, Ant got most of
the games.  On the other hand it sounds his financials aren't great and
he'll probably appreciate them more than I.

I won? :O

I don't have as much time, I was out of town for 4 days so missed all
those, as well as this last one.

I got busy the last few days so I couldn't check this awesome newsgroups
often. :(

Real-life friends?!  But will they worship at your alter of verbosity
like we will?

Friends? What are those? ;)

But now we come to the real meat of this post, and not just my usual
end-of-year meanderings. Because I've come to make an ANNOUNCEMENT.
Because I'm here to inform you that I Am Done.

NOOOOOOO!!!!

BOOOOOO!!!! Maybe others will do the same. We all should do it for fun!

So that's it. I hope you all had a marvelous holiday season. I hope my
little efforts went a way to making it better. I hope you got at least
one game you liked. I hope The Number got bigger for all of you. I
hope it encouraged all you regulars to stick with Usenet and post
more. I hope new users stumbled across this newsgroup and said, "hey,
this place looks cool; I think I'll stick around." And I hope we all
find games enough in common that we can talk about them together for a
long, long time.

Really yes, I generally appreciate the reviews (if I can call them that)
here than anywhere else, and general freedom of usenet to wander off the
path organically.

Ditto.

I've done
this thing for ten years, ever since 2014. In that time, I've handed
out 337 keys. Here's the final tally. How many games in your library
have I contributed?

Quite a bit, though rms' giveaways perhaps surpassed yours in 2023 for
quality and perhaps quantity of the ones I got. ];}-

Oof, that's too many to go through let alone remember where I got.

If I get bored after this week I'll dig through usenet archives and see
if I can figure it out.

Sheesh. Who has time for that? ;)
