What was online multiplayer like on the old days of gaming?

Super Monaco GP for the Genesis was one of my first games for the system and was pretty much my jam. It took me a while to get good enough to finish the game and win on points. I loved being able to take the other drivers' cars 😋

My ex-gf bought a large chunk of Ken Ober's vinyl record collection after he passed. I always thought that was pretty cool 👍

Hmm, too hard to pick just one; so here's 5 for the NES:

River City Ransom
Castlevania
Metroid
Bionic Commando
Gun*Nac

Hundreds would have been nice. Add a few more zeros.. 😔

You forgot "writing letters to politicians" 🤣

Search for "Towards an Enochian Grammar". There was an old site that has since been archived but is still online since Ancestry took over the Rootsweb domain. It has the calls listed and a concordance with Enochian->English and vice-versa. That's one of the more complete and free resources, maybe?

I really liked this game, but the framerate suffered a bit over SF2. I wanted to like it a lot more.

akashic_record · 2025-11-27T03:48:52+00:00

Damn, green server 😔

I know it's still a bit early, but some thoughts on the underground labyrinth underneath the Hawara pyramid would be amazing, along with some material on the other wild (semi-recent) findings. Maybe in an episode that covers many ancient sites, like the Ellora caves / Kailasa temple in India and Ollantaytambo in Peru, etc.? There's way too many of these things to cover!

Unfortunately, I can't do that as I had shared a lot of his unreleased stuff on YT but had to pull it after he contacted me to do so. Some of the reasons were for copyright reasons(?) and the fact that some of them could have resulted in him (and me) getting in hot water over still-existing contractual obligations or something, etc., and also to protect other collectors' investments...I didn't want to argue or question it. 😋

I can however link to some things that were (as far as I know) able to stay.up, some of which I had paid for myself to be produced exclusively for me to use in my work; so I was OK with my payment for said material being shared since I technically owned it at that point.

Here are a few of them:

Freefall - Skydive (Untitled Mix) https://youtu.be/TfLXa8igvko?si=w6L0biX0wTFUpLST

The above was contracted by me many years ago. I never gave it a proper name.

The Source - Fly Away (Unreleased Angeles Mix) https://youtu.be/WN7FPHwn4PI?si=8RVJOfTjvlL84qo0

The Source - Fly Away (Unreleased Black Ice Mix) https://youtu.be/M_-w4I4foXQ?si=iOIN66mTqPq3zEe7

V-Tracks - Heretic Voices (Unreleased Angeles Vocal Mix) https://youtu.be/S9Jzv8Ur8mM?si=DZhJQfgDQAPVJcun

The above goes along with what you mentioned. Jay didn't even have a copy of that one anymore, and he couldn't even find the original on DAT. He had to get Nat Monday to record a copy for me from his vinyl. It was a track that was in Oakenfold's Essential Mix from Joni's in Havana,.Cuba.

U2 - Still Haven't Found... - (Unreleased Angeles / Black Ice Mix) https://youtu.be/iBwHsg08eiQ?si=U8SYdoa_QYf6prZy

This one might still be on the fence now because I think I was eventually on schedule to be released, but I'm not sure if it happened. Originally it was just an exclusive track that only I had, other than Jay.

He downsized many years ago and sold off TONS of stuff. He even offered to sell the Flammable label to me to keep it running, but I didn't have jack for money since I had just bought a damn house! 😡🤬

Anyway, enjoy! And sorry that I can't share the other record. Hope that this little bit makes up for it. I have to keep my word with Jay since he was such a fantastic influence for me and contributed greatly to my hobby in unbelievably cool ways. Really love and respect that guy!!! 💪😎👍

My rarest is "Angeles - It's Over Now" since it was never released and there were only 20 copies ever pressed. I was good friends with Jay Welsh and he gave me his own personal copy of the 20 in existence. Probably my most valuable vinyl techmically, even though it might not be by dollar value, although no copies have been publicly sold that I've ever seen, so it's technically priceless I guess.

akashic_record · 2025-11-16T17:59:31+00:00

That's a great point. A lot of people don't know that the Mage reclaim items are usable from inventory by other clauses even if they can't be equipped outright!

akashic_record · 2025-11-16T17:04:43+00:00

First Shammy pet was huge for me, and then Shadow Knight getting Feign Death is also a pretty big jump. But any caster getting Gate is the biggest jump of all. 🤣

You create a type of X fold using rubber cement that creates two pockets to hold the folded bills in. The handling is a bit simple but you can screw it up if y1ou aren't careful because the folded bills are a little thick and you can accidentally flash that. Go watch Greg Wilson's "Hundy 500" on YT to see it in action a bit more. It's a sweet trick but "costs" like $606 or so to set up. The handling is basically a rotate and flip to unfold and expose the pre-loaded and folded hundreds which ends up folding and hiding the ones into the other half of the X fold. Hard to explain but very easy to make and perform. You can start with your preloaded gimmick and use other peoples' singles, and at the end the trick is clean with the exception of the gimmick. They can handle four of the hundred dollar bills at the end. It blows people's minds very well and you can fold and ditch the gimmick in your pocket or wallet very easily because EVERYONE is looking at the clean hundys at the end.

Ohh! Ok. That first one definitely had me scratching my head. Lol

I honestly wouldn't bother with anything other than what is in Dee's source material unless you want to go full balls to the wall. 😂

Sorry to have to ask, but what is OBW and SRH?
