I have about 300 games in my collection that have not (to my knowledge)
been posted to Asimov or anywhere else yet. Over the next few days I
will be posting them to Asimov.
Since I don't know when the next time Asimov is going to move the stuff
from Incoming to Unsorted is, if someone wants to get copies of any or
all of these, I am fine with e-mailing them to you or posting them
elsewhere.
The file games are spread out over disks that have a lot of other games
that are already on Asimov, but I will try to consolidate them down to
a few disks.
Below is the full list of what I will be updating. No doubt some of
them will have transfer errors and some are originals that may not
transfer at all, but most should work.
Among them are a host of long-missing games and a number of unusual
ones many have never heard of (Dr. Ruth's Computer Game of Good Sex;
Cheeziest Adventure of a Lifetime (an "adventure" written by hackers
that no one who wasn't around at the time is likely to find funny), two
Infocomics (I loved those), one of the plethora of titles from Paul's
Electic Computer (possibly the worst software ever made for the Apple
II) and a host of new Take 1 Movies).
Here is the list (games preceded by a question mark are ones that I
think are already on Asimov, but am not sure):

Awesome work -- how did you manage to copy Police Quest?
This is awesome news. I would be very happy to have these emailed to me or have
the ability to get them before they end up in the incoming folder of asimov.
Thanks for your effort.

I can't find it right now, but I saw somewhere in the web a site full of
hundreds of Apple II games (for emulators)...

Interested, I am chomping at the bit!
I have an Asimov mirror online and I have sent multiple mails to the
Asimov "admin" offering my help to "clean up" the incoming and other
folders.
Anyways, I can supply you with access to my server to upload the files
which I then will make available online. I can then even upload them to
Asimov for you to save you the hassle if you want.
Let me know.

Greg
That's fine with me. I posted them to Asimov but I have the feeling it
will be months before they move them out of the Incoming folder.
Let me know how to proceed.
Address please? Thanx!

When you look at his e-mail address you'll know.
I am waiting too...
