Rob,

What year was the version of the game that *you're* playing, released?

The date on the main executable is Sept. 20, 1995. It's version 2, wide beta 8.

I'm pretty sure that TradeWars 2002, not TradeWars 2.

Does your door game or documentation say "2002"? If yes, that's not the game we're discussing.
