LINK FROM ππMARC 
HELLO
>helo`o
I was just// I just wanted to tell you that you should feel free to
submit suggestions, but/gs, etc. to us.  A new vesiion of ZORK will
be installed within the next few days which will be much improved
(the dungeon itself will be the same ,more or less)
>there is one suggestion
yes
>In connection with adventure, I have thought about making the game som!
ewhat user proggrammagble.
i.e. the user can give sequences of actions.  In advaxxx It seems
that the scoreing should give some weight to anticipating what
might happen so that if a user could make a program that could run for
many moves successfully, it should cost him fewer truns or some such
resource than if he did each move one at a time.
the sxxx this would be a major change.  a general idea isto
encourage the user to make structures of a kind whose precise effects
cannot be seen in advacnce by gexx the game maker.  There is a
file COREWA[E77,JMC] at SAIL that suggests a different game that
would have these qualities to a high degree.
ga
That would indeed be a major change, and would make a mpre interesting
game.  We will take a look at thi/at file later tonight.  BTW, mmoves
don't really cose /t anything in c/scoi/ring in the present game (the
information is m/for the user's amusement.)
>true, but in adventure, there has bbeen recent competitiion in winning!
 with as
few moves as possible or withougt killing any dwarfs.
ga
hm.. i suppose we could wi/eight the number of moves into the score.
>You got my msg about double exorcise?
yes. it is a known bug, which has been long fixed in unimplemented vers!
ions.
We have been waiting until all of the changes we have queued have been
done.  BTW, the file you mentioned doesn't seem to be there.
>funny.  I'll look later.  Perhaps I got the worong directory.
ga
I don't know much about file name conventions there.  Is COREWA[E77,JMC!
] sufficient
information for the FTP server?
>yes
ok. then it cal//clains that the file doesn't exist.
>ok I'↑W↑W ll logout, check, and sentd you a msg.
No hurry.  I'll see you later, then. BYe? >bye↑←N

You are in the living room.  There is a door to the east, a wooden door
with strange gothic lettering to the west, which appears to be nailed
shut, and what appears to be a closed trap-door at your feet.
There is a trophy case here.
>open door
The door reluctantly opens to reveal a rickety staircase descending
into darkness.
>d
It is now completely dark.  You will probably fall into a pit.

You are in a dark and damp Cellar with a narrow passageway leading
east and a crawlway to the south.  On the west is the bottom of a stee!
p
metal ramp which iq unclimbable.
The trap door crashes shut behind you, and you hear someone barring it.

ns
and deep scratches (perhaps made by an axe) mar the walls.
A nasty-looking troll, brandishing a bloody axe, blocks all passages
out of the room.

disappears along with his axe, and the way is clear.  The bloody knife
remains behind.

Oh ye who go about saying unto each:   "Hello sailor":
dost thou know the magnitude of thy sin before the gods?
Yea, verily, thou shalt be ground between two stones.
Shall the angry gods cast thy body into the whirlpool?
Surely, thy eye shall be put out with a sharp stick!
Even unto the ends of the earth shalt thou wander and
unto the land of the dead shalt thou be sent at last.
Surely thou shalt repent of thy cunning.
