category (48K JSW, JSW128 or JSW64) is it?
2. Igor Makovsky's Fire Quest quickie
I have not added Fire Quest to my List of MM/JSW Games, because in
Message 6048, Igor wrote, "Please do not spread this game even in
Andrew Broad's site."
So I haven't even mentioned Fire Quest in Future JSW64 Games - is
that what you intend, Igor?
It seems a shame for Fire Quest to remain a 'club-secret' forever,
since it's obviously more than just a quick doodle with JSWED, and
thus deserves a place in JSW-history IMO, even if only as a Titbit.
