ClubFloyd Transcript:
Cottage by Viggo Eriksson, Kimmo Eriksson, and Olle E Johansson
As played on ifMUD on July 21 & 28, 2019

The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction.

Below is a transcript of Cottage written by Viggo Eriksson, Kimmo Eriksson, and Olle E Johansson. This is an English translation of a famous, but old, Swedish game called Stuga, the earliest known Swedish IF game. Sadly, the game involves timed input, which Floyd cannot handle, so the ClubFloyd crew could not finish. You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting IFDB.


WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing this game, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played this game, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page.

Jacqueline says, "Oh cool"
DavidW says, "I have to warn people, Cottage is an old-school translation of a Swedish adventure."
Jacqueline asks, "So this is a port?"
Jacqueline says, "Don't warn."
Jacqueline says, "That's awesome."
Jacqueline asks, "Why do we need to enter the date, I wonder?"
Jacqueline asks, "Should we use their date, or update it?"
Knight_Otu arrives, ready to play with the toys. Knight_Otu says, "Oops."
DavidW says, "We should probably use today's date."
Guenni nods.

Floyd | Welcome to VIOL's cottage!!!!!
Floyd |
Floyd | Have you ventured inside before?
Jacqueline says, "QHO"
Jacqueline says, "er, WHOA"
wordsmith says, "Kilroy was here."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "no"
Floyd | Have you ventured inside before?
Floyd | > NO
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | Then some help and instructions are needed!
Floyd |
Floyd | Cottage is an ADVENTURE-like game. You will explore a house and its
Floyd | surroundings. The computer is your eyes and hands. Give the computer
Floyd | simple commands, for example: DROP PICTURE, GIVE JUICE BOTTLE, NORTH,
Floyd | UP, LEFT...
Floyd | Outside the cottage you move around with compass directions that can
Floyd | be abbreviated N, S, W, E, NW, NE, SE and SW. Inside the cottage you
Floyd | use the directions FORWARD (F), BACK (B), LEFT (L), RIGHT (R), UP (U)
Floyd | and DOWN (D).
Floyd | In some rooms you can get specific help (but it reduces your score) if
Floyd | you type HELP. INVENT lists all the things you're carrying, SCORE
Floyd | prints your current score and LOOK prints the full description of the
Floyd | room. Give the command QUIT when you're done.
Floyd | UNDO takes back the last command. It can be used several times in a
Floyd | row to go further back in time (if the Z-code interpreter supports
Floyd | it). ABOUT displays information about the origin of the game, and what
Floyd | the differences are between this version and the original. To access
Floyd | the hint menu, type HINT. Type INFO to get a list of the commands.
Floyd | Type ? (question mark) to repeat these instructions during the game.
Floyd |
Floyd | You're supposed to get as many points as possible. You get points by
Floyd | discovering new places and collecting valuables.
Floyd |
Floyd | GOOD LUCK!
Floyd |
Floyd | You're standing on a jetty somewhere in Småland. Behind your
Floyd | sun-warmed back people are water-skiing. A church bell (which you
Floyd | can't see) strikes twelve. You can see a house straight ahead.
Guenni says, "Considering it's different for all of us, I'd say leave the default."
Knight_Otu asks, "Is that a person looking over a fence?"
wordsmith says, "I think so."
DavidW says (to Guenni), "I decided to use mud date and time."
Guenni shrugs.
Jacqueline says (to DW), "Yeah, that was a decent move."
Jacqueline says, "Because we can all check that easily."
Jacqueline says, "(Just type 'time' and the mud will give you the current mud time)"
wordsmith says, "Old-school... 6-letter abbrev. like INVENT for inventory."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "info"
Floyd | can't see) strikes twelve. You can see a house straight ahead.
Floyd | > INFO
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | INFORMATION ABOUT SOME COMMANDS:
Floyd | Movement indoors:

Knight_Otu says, "Ave caesar."
DavidW says, "'the die is cast'"
wordsmith says, "When two or more words is too many to parse..."
Jacqueline says, "I don't ever recall outside cardinal directions and inside relative directions."
Guenni says, "Me neither. But I don't know to many older games."
Jacqueline asks, "So, there are more doors? Like the house is a maze?"
DavidW says, "I'm gonna be very confused."
Jacqueline asks, "Is someone mapping?"
wordsmith says, "Unconventional in the genre, but how many people think. Except my relatives in Kansas, who use cardinal directions indoors."
Jacqueline says (to ws), "I'm ... assuming you're kidding."
Guenni says, "O... k..."

Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the Studio.
Jacqueline says (to ws), "That is fascinating."
DavidW asks, "Left or right or back to the hall?"
Knight_Otu says, "If we had dice, we could throw them here I guess."
Guenni says, "I guess we'll find some dice somewhere we have to drop in here later."
DavidW says (to Knight), "agreed"
Guenni says (to knight), "Timing. :-)"
Knight_Otu says, "Another right? (disclaimer - I'm not mapping.)"
wordsmith says, "good one"
DavidW says, "I think if we started going right, we should keep going right."
Jacqueline says, "Okay"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "right"
Floyd | You are in the Studio.
Floyd | > RIGHT
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a big room called the ÅP room. Doors lead to the left and

Knight_Otu asks, "Do we have an ap for this room?"
Knight_Otu says, "(Sorry.)"
Jacqueline says, "snrk"
DavidW says, "I don't know what that word means."
Jacqueline says, "One sec. I'll look it up."
Jacqueline asks, "This is Swedish?"
Guenni says, "I'm guessing it's just a made up name, since the room hasn't even a description. But I could be wrong."
DavidW says, "yes"
Jacqueline says, "According to Google it means Steam Boiler"
Guenni says, "Ah."
DavidW says, "oh, boiler room in english, then."
Knight_Otu says, "Okay. Of course, since we can't examine scenery..."
DavidW says, "There's no back exit this time, which is weird."
Knight_Otu says, "Oh right. There isn't."
Guenni says, "There wasn't in the studio either."
Jacqueline frowns.
DavidW says, "The studio had a back exit."
Knight_Otu says, "The studio did have a backwards path."
DavidW says, "anyway, I think we should continue right."
Guenni says, "Hmm, my memory obviously declines with age. :-)"
Knight_Otu says (to David), "Sure."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "r"
Floyd | right but you can also go forward.
Floyd | > R
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the Boiler room, a narrow passage is sloping upward-forward
Floyd | and one leads to the left. To your right the Boiler room continues.
DavidW says, "huh."
Jacqueline says, "As Bivotar (or Juranda?) (I think?) once said, 'Right is right.' Which always pissed me off as a lefty."
Jacqueline says, "Sorry, Bivotar and Juranda are pretty obscure references."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "right"
Floyd | and one leads to the left. To your right the Boiler room continues.
Floyd | > RIGHT
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the Right boiler room.
Floyd | A boiler blows up, making a hole in the wall.
Floyd | Do you want to enter the hole ?
Knight_Otu says, "Not to mention the word sinister."
Jacqueline exclaims, "Enter the hole! Sure!"
Jacqueline asks, "What could possibly go wrong in the The Hole?"
Guenni says (to Floyd), "enter hole"
Floyd | Do you want to enter the hole ?
Floyd | > ENTER HOLE
Floyd |
Floyd | Ok.
Floyd | You are in the Boiler room, a narrow passage is sloping upward-forward
Floyd | and one leads to the left. To your right the Boiler room continues.
Knight_Otu says, "I think that was interpreted as no."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "right"
Floyd | and one leads to the left. To your right the Boiler room continues.
Floyd | > RIGHT
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the Right boiler room.

Floyd | Do you want to enter the hole ?
Floyd | > Y
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a cavern extending out of sight to your left and right.
Floyd | Behind you there's a hole blasted open.
Knight_Otu says, "Me too."
Guenni nods.
DavidW says, "So confusing."
Jacqueline exclaims, "Keep going right!"
Guenni asks, "Do we want to search the cave or do we look through the complete house first?"
Jacqueline says, "Yeah, I'm trying to visualize this in my mind."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "r"
Floyd | Behind you there's a hole blasted open.
Floyd | > R
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You just passed through a waterfall.
Floyd | You are at a waterfall in a forest.
Jacqueline exclaims, "!"
Jacqueline exclaims, "Ha!"
Knight_Otu says, "Out of cottage experience."
Jacqueline says, "Seriously."
Guenni exclaims, "Heh!"
DavidW says, "I guess we can do compass directions now."
Jacqueline blinks.
Knight_Otu nods.
Guenni says, "Probably."
DavidW says, "Or try to go back through the waterfall."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "n"
Floyd | You are at a waterfall in a forest.
Floyd | > N
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You are on the shore of an underground lake.
Jacqueline says, "I think it's funny how a cave is considered 'indoors'"
Jacqueline says, "Oh wait"
DavidW says, "We weren't given any exits at the waterfall."
wordsmith says, "Well, a cave does have 'rooms'..."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "search lake"
Floyd | You are on the shore of an underground lake.
Floyd | > SEARCH LAKE

Floyd | > SWIM
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | The water is still, you swim fast.
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a cemetery. You are standing by a tombstone on the edge of
Floyd | a grave. A path leads forward and backward.
Floyd | There is a spade here.
Jacqueline says, "!@"
Knight_Otu asks, "So, uh, was the forest underground too?"
Jacqueline says, "This is..."
Jacqueline says (to KO), "It's like Skyrim."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "take spade"
Floyd | There is a spade here.
Floyd | > TAKE SPADE
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | Ok.
Guenni says, "Hmm, looks like inform doesn't care to much what direction words you use."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "read tombstone"
Floyd | Ok.
Floyd | > READ TOMBSTONE
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | The tombstone is blank.
Knight_Otu says, "Can we read the... okay."
Jacqueline says, "There must be sunlight from above or we'd be in the dark. Trees have light."
Jacqueline asks, "Is this what the IFDB means by a crazy quilt game?"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "dig"
Floyd | The tombstone is blank.
Floyd | > DIG
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | The ground is too hard.
Jacqueline says, "(Or is that IFDB? I forget.)"
Knight_Otu asks, "Bioluminiscent mushroom trees?"
DavidW says, "I invented 'crazy quilt' for IFWiki."
Jacqueline says, "That would be freakin' awesome, KO"
DavidW says, "And this isn't crazy quilt yet."
Jacqueline says (to DW), "As the creator of crazy quilt - oh, okay."
DavidW says, "Like, it might be, but it's not clear yet how the geography fits together with just a linear slice."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "dig grave"
Floyd | The ground is too hard.

DavidW says, "maybe"
Knight_Otu asks, "The author?"
Guenni says, "May I say the repeating of upper lines is a bit annoying."
Jacqueline says, "Yeah. Sorry about that. Not sure why it's doing that."
DavidW says, "Maybe sleepmask is doing it."
DavidW says, "There's no status bar."
Jacqueline says, "True"
Knight_Otu says, "Which is weird on its own."
wordsmith asks, "Should we test save and restore?"
Guenni says, "I think it's game specific. Since sleepmask usually doesn't have that effect."
Jacqueline says, "But sleepmask is, I think(?) also ensuring the accents."
Jacqueline says, "But there aren't many of those."
Jacqueline says, "So we could restart and see."
Knight_Otu says, "Yeah, usually not using sleepmask has the effect we're seeing, I thought."
Guenni says, "Ok, it's worth a try."
DavidW says, "I'm okay with restarting if everyone else is."
Knight_Otu says, "Sure, let's try."
Jacqueline says, "It's not like we've learned anything deep and critical het."

Floyd |
Floyd | You're standing on a jetty somewhere in Småland. Behind your sun-warmed
Floyd | back people are water-skiing. A church bell (which you can't see)

DavidW asks, "Do the right path or try left stuff this time?"
Guenni says, "Ok, I was wrong. It's not tha games fault after all. :-)"

Guenni says (to Floyd), "r"
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the Studio. There are three doors here. They lead to the

Knight_Otu asks, "Maybe take a left now?"
DavidW asks (of Guenni), "Do you want to drive now?"

Guenni says (to david), "Yeah."
Knight_Otu says, "I guess."
DavidW says, "okay"

Guenni says (to Floyd), "give wreath to old man"
Floyd |

Floyd |
Floyd |
Guenni says (to Floyd), "get bottle"
Floyd |
Floyd | You have to say what kind of bottle you mean, e g TAKE JUICE BOTTLE.

Knight_Otu says, "I really don't understand the geography here."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "take water bottle"
Floyd |
Floyd | You take the water bottle from the old man.
Floyd | The old man gets up, mutters something about never having any peace,
Floyd | and leaves.
Floyd | You are in a dark room.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Guenni says, "Hmm, let's hope we don't need the necklace."
Guenni says (to Floyd), "l"

Floyd | You can see a small faun quarking a praktyl. The faun says:

Jacqueline says, "Ah. It's a brand."
DavidW says, "I don't understand what the 'l' command is doing. That's not the same as look."
Guenni says, "Hmmr, at least there's a way back. Even if the map is a bit confusing."
Knight_Otu says, "Left."

DavidW says, "I'm scared to imagine this cottage has nine floors to it."
Knight_Otu says, "Back."
Jacqueline says, "It's quite the cottage"
Guenni says, "I also think calling a building with 9 floors is a strange decision. :-)"

Knight_Otu asks, "With timed inputs?"

wordsmith says (to Floyd), "look"
Floyd | Be quiet, I'm waiting!
Guenni says, "Hmm, I thought it was refferring to the time input at the beginning."

Knight_Otu says, "It's been useful."

Jacqueline says, "Possibly."
DavidW says, "Guenni is rebooting."
Jacqueline says, "I can't say that I'm finding it riviting, but I'm glad we've tried it."
Jacqueline says, "Maybe if we just avoid wait commands..."
DavidW says, "Maybe"
Jacqueline says (to DW), "Yeah, I saw that."
wordsmith says, "I liked the business with the faun and the faun's shoe. That was charming."
Jacqueline says (to wordsmith), "Yeah, but you like to quark and practyl a faun as much as the next girl."

Jacqueline says, "I knew I was mixing that up."
wordsmith asks, "Shall I drive for a bit?"
Knight_Otu asks, "So do we return to the skyscraper cottage with the forest mountain lake caverns?"
Guenni says, "looks like it."
DavidW says (to wordsmith), "I don't mind."
wordsmith asks, "Guenni?"
Guenni says, ".. knight If you want too."
wordsmith says, "sure, that's would be fine."

Floyd | You are in a big labyrinth which is turny as well.

Knight_Otu says, "Well that was random."
DavidW says, "yeah, I don't understand the ZZZZ room at all yet."
ploppy asks, "turny?"
DavidW says, "Maybe the faun shoe would help there."
DavidW says (to ploppy), "Like twisty."
ploppy asks, "oh like twisty?"
ploppy says, "heh"
Jacqueline says, "heh"
DavidW says, "The game has its own version of a 'twisty little passages' but it translates to English weirdly."
ploppy says, "yeah, the context and history of the game is important"
ploppy says, "to understand"
DavidW says, "so, we're back in the maze again."
Knight_Otu says, "Yeah, I'm seeing if I can find a way to the room with holes."
DavidW says, "I don't think you can trust my map info for that."
DavidW says, "Try down then up."
Knight_Otu says, "Also, I kind of have to work backwards from my goal."
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "d"

DavidW says, "oh. We last saw him in the dark room."
Jacqueline says, "relatable content, there."

Floyd | What ??
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a room with holes everywhere. High up in the ceiling is a
Floyd | window. Someone's knocking on it!!!
Floyd | There is a ladder here.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Jacqueline says, "hrm"
DavidW says, "When I used the ladder in another room, I just went up while carrying the thing."
Jacqueline says, "Put ladder against wall is probably too complex"
ploppy asks, "u?"
DavidW says, "Don't drop it."
Jacqueline says, "huh"
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "get ladder"
Floyd |
Floyd | Ok.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "u"
Floyd |
Floyd | You are winding in a little passage.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Knight_Otu says, "Nope."
DavidW says, "I guess the ladder isn't useful there."
Jacqueline asks, "May I?"
ploppy says, "seems that way"
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "undo"
Floyd |
Floyd | Previous turn undone.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "look"
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a room with holes everywhere. High up in the ceiling is a

DavidW says (to Floyd), "knock on window"
Floyd |
Floyd | Nothing happens.

Floyd |

Knight_Otu says, "No examine."
ploppy asks, "open window?"
Jacqueline says, "Tried that."
Jacqueline says, "Doesn't open"
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "open"
Floyd |
Floyd | There is nothing here you can open!
Floyd | You are in a room with holes everywhere. High up in the ceiling is a
Floyd | window. Someone's knocking on it!!!
Floyd |
Floyd |
ploppy asks, "do we know who is knocking?"
Knight_Otu says, "And silly old me looked through the map for a way back, rather than undoing."
Jacqueline says (to KO), "heh"
Jacqueline says, "You could call me 'efficient,' but really I was just being lazy."
Jacqueline says, "Getting the ladder was a super good idea, but... yeah, not sure it's the solution"
ploppy asks, "are the holes exits? Is that what that word means?"
Knight_Otu says, "Maybe we need a throwable rock."
DavidW says (to ploppy), "I think so, yes"
DavidW says, "We have a deflated ball."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "throw ball"
Floyd |
Floyd | Unfortunately your throwing arm is out of joint.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Knight_Otu says, "I was imagining swiss-cheese-like walls, but exits is a possibility."
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "enter holes"
Floyd |
Floyd | I don't know what that means.
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a room with holes everywhere. High up in the ceiling is a
Floyd | window. Someone's knocking on it!!!

Jacqueline says (to KO), "Same"
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "climb holes"
Floyd |
Floyd | I don't know what that means.

Floyd | window. Someone's knocking on it!!!
Floyd |
Floyd |
DavidW says, "No climbing in this game."
Knight_Otu says, "So we see."
Knight_Otu says, "I hope the person knocking on the window isn't simply for atmosphere."
DavidW says, "Command handling is primitive. When playing privately, I had the rowboat next to a house and 'enter rowboat' made me enter the house instead."
Knight_Otu says, "Heh. It is an old game."
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "jump"
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in a passaging winding.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Knight_Otu asks, "So apparently jump is down?"
DavidW says, "I don't know ."
DavidW says, "I have no idea how jump works in this game."
DavidW asks, "But maybe?"
Knight_Otu says, "That is the room marked as down from RWH."
Knight_Otu asks, "(loop) means the path returns to the same room?"
DavidW says, "Yes, but even that can't be trusted."
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "jump"

DavidW says, "oh, there's a thing about the Passaging winding room that creates a picture in any of its destination rooms."
Knight_Otu says, "I... We *are* in the same room, but..."
DavidW says, "The picture is always either this kilroy thing or the priest."
Knight_Otu says, "But suddenly we get an exit list and extra detail."
Knight_Otu says, "And these image we can't get. Because it's not proper or something."
DavidW says, "I have no idea why the pictures get created. Or if there's just one picture that moves."
Knight_Otu says (to Floyd), "get picture"
Floyd |
Floyd | But you can't pinch one of the house's pictures!
Floyd |
Floyd |
Knight_Otu says, "Yet for other items, we have no such qualms."
DavidW says, "The pictures may be a puzzle I don't understand yet. Or just local colour."
Knight_Otu says, "Either way, at least in the labyrinth, jump appears to be down."
DavidW says, "okay."
Jacqueline says (to DW), "Yeah, I'm not sure if it's just fun art or part of the plot either"
Knight_Otu says, "So, it seems we can go to the well edge or the loft from here."
Knight_Otu asks, "Any preferences?"
DavidW says, "I think 'Edge of deep well' is part of maze, but I didn't map it out."
DavidW says, "well, in the Loft we can try out the phone, I guess."

ploppy asks, "do we know what the end goal of the game is?"
Jacqueline laughs at ploppy.
DavidW says (to ploppy), "Not really. Mostly explore and find treasures and gain points."
ploppy asks, "is it a collect and drop?"
Knight_Otu says, "I'm assuming it's a treasure hunt - find the treasures, bring them to a certain room."
DavidW says, "There is a collect and drop aspect, yes."
ploppy asks, "have we found the treasure drop room yet?"
DavidW says, "I have."
Jacqueline says, "To be fair, it is a game of its day."
Knight_Otu says, "CF itself hasn't."
Jacqueline says, "That was often the plot back in the day."
Knight_Otu says (to Jacq), "True."
DavidW says, "I don't know if I'm allowed to say which room is for dropping treasures, but it's very obvious once you're there."
Knight_Otu says, "Back then, computers were little more than potatoes."
Knight_Otu says, "But maybe less crash-prone than today."
Jacqueline says (to KO), "Well, I don't think that was the reason."
Jacqueline says, "There were some good games with wider plots back then."
Jacqueline says (to DW), "To be honest, I'm normally against hints, but I'm willing to do whatever is required to move more quickly through this particular title. heh"
Knight_Otu says, "It's true."
Jacqueline says, "I'm glad we're playing it, but more for experience reasons than joy."
Knight_Otu says, "(that there were more story-rich games back then.)"
Jacqueline says, "(Yes, I figured.)"
Jacqueline says, "But everyone wanted their own take on Adventure"
DavidW says, "I can take us to the drop room if I'm allowed to drive there."

Knight_Otu asks, "Okay. But we never got the picture, right?"
Jacqueline says, "Makes sense"
DavidW says, "correct"
DavidW says, "For some reason, the rowboat has to be on the south side or you won't be able to stand long enough on the southern shore to enter here."
Knight_Otu says, "I like how the cottage is a huge sprawling eldritch location, and a house is... one room."
Jacqueline says, "heh"
DavidW says, "I never actually tried dropping stuff here since I wasn't sure if I'd need it back."

Knight_Otu says, "I just wanted to see if it would give us a list of exits."
Knight_Otu says, "Sometimes it does."
DavidW says, "oh. Sometimes it does"
DavidW says, "The way the game handles doors is weird."
Knight_Otu says, "The responses and descriptions are occassionally handled differently, it seems."
wordsmith asks (of Jacqueline), "Is the plan to continue with Cottage next week?"
Jacqueline says, "Yes"
Jacqueline says, "Oh, um, that was a yes for the doors."
DavidW says, "There's a 'right next to it' pseudo-room if the door is closed, and when you enter the door, the door is gone forever or recloses."
Jacqueline says, "That's really up to the group, ws"
Jacqueline asks, "Are we slowing down/stopping for today?"
Knight_Otu says, "I'm torn on continuing. On the one hand, it seems we're getting frustrated by the game at several turns..."
DavidW says, "We may be slowing down, yes."
Jacqueline says, "Yeah, I suspect it's totally not winnable on Floyd."
DavidW says, "I should mention, for sake of completeness, there's an extension cable on the 6th floor, and that we've never tried to fill the bottle."
ploppy asks, "is the timing problem only on CF?"
Jacqueline says, "Yeah"
DavidW says, "I don't have the problem when I play at home on WinFrotz."
Knight_Otu says, "And we haven't found a place to dig, or the robber's hiding place, something to inflate the ball with..."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "blow ball"

Floyd | I don't know what that means.
Floyd |
Floyd | You are in the vestibule, a small room with a door behind you and a big

ploppy says, "I'd be willing to play around with it on my own this week, or I'd also be willing to move on, whatever the group thinks"
wordsmith says, "Not too much progress today, it seems."
DavidW says, "some."
Knight_Otu says, "Not just on ClubFloyd, probably, but most interpreters should be able to handle it."
DavidW says, "You were late, so you missed seeing my map link: [LINK]"
wordsmith says, "Thank you."
Jacqueline says, "Oh yeah, check out the maps"
ploppy asks, "do any of you know someone who has finished it?"
Jacqueline says, "DW may end up being the first."
Knight_Otu says, "We did get some scissors, a sledgehammer, used sesame, briefly saw a crowbar."
Jacqueline says, "(Kidding. But only a litle.)"
DavidW says, "no, but it's a famous game. It has its own Wikipedia page."
wordsmith exclaims, "Nice work, DW!"
DavidW says, "thanks"
Jacqueline says, "Oh right, forgot that it has its own Wikipedia page."
Knight_Otu asks, "Renga in Blue has a series on old games, don't they?"
DavidW says, "yeah"
DavidW says, "Ghogg might've reviewed it and played it."
ploppy says, "well I would be glad to help out if I can this coming week or I'd be just as glad to move on"
DavidW says, "I could try to find the Muppets for us."
Jacqueline says, "sure"
Knight_Otu says, "True, we did not find them."

Floyd | Someone says: This is THE MUPPET SHOW with tonight's guest artist:
Floyd | clubfloyd
Floyd | The curtain rises and you are on a stage with Kermit the frog. The
Floyd | puppet audience is applauding.
Floyd | Answer RUN or PERFORM :
DavidW says, "Here we are."
ploppy says, "wow...just...wow"
DavidW says, "We can die in this section. I found a way to survive but not gain anything from it."
Knight_Otu says, "And we thought Crag.... yeah, yeah, I said it before."
DavidW asks, "Do we RUN or PERFORM?"
Jacqueline blinks.
ploppy says, "performing seems more bold"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "perform"
Floyd |
Floyd | Kermit asks you if you want to sing or tell a story.

ploppy says, "tell"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "tell"
Floyd |
Floyd | You start to tell a funny story but after the first sentence you're

Floyd | Answer HELP or RUN :
ploppy says, "help"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "help"
Floyd |
Floyd | Fozzi takes you into his dressing-room and says :
Floyd |  - If you say a nine-digit number where no digit is above five then I,
Floyd | Fozzi the funny, shall help You with a story.
Floyd | Answer RUN or a nine-digit number :
Jacqueline says, "ha"
Jacqueline says, "This is so weird"
ploppy asks, "so, like 111111111?"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "111111111"
Floyd |
Floyd | Fozzi writes down a story on a note which he gives to you. You return
Floyd | to the stage and tell.
Floyd |
Floyd |  - A message reaches Boot Hill that Sven Olsson's quintet has
Floyd |   been released from the San Francisco home for the absent-minded and
Floyd | will be coming to lay
Floyd |   hands on the sheriff. The city is soon in the clutches of
Floyd |   a bank robbery and the people sit down to wait for
Floyd |   a problem with Malm?'s TV 2-transmitter.
Floyd |   Worried that the villains are going to harass the indians, the
Floyd |   saloon girls are getting slightly intoxicated. The villains arrive
Floyd |   but the danger is averted too late.
Floyd |
Floyd | The audience cheers but the old men on the balcony are only sneering.
Floyd | You follow Kermit to get a contract.
Floyd | Fozzi says: Enter an interest that you have :
wordsmith says, "weird, yet cool"
Jacqueline says, "'interactive fiction' if we're allowed two words."
Knight_Otu blinks.
DavidW says (to Floyd), "interactive fiction"
Floyd | Fozzi gives his thanks and leaves.
Floyd | Kermit wants to give you a contract, but then you'll have to drop
Floyd | something first. (Bear in mind that you won't be able to return here!!)
Floyd | Answer DROP <the thing you want to drop> or BAD :
DavidW asks, "The ball?"
ploppy says, "sure, I mean, we saved"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "drop ball"
Floyd | Ok.
Floyd |
Floyd | You receive a pink contract from Kermit. There is a door to your right.
Floyd | Answer FOLLOW (Fozzi) or RIGHT :
ploppy asks, "follow I guess?"
Jacqueline says, "sure"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "follow"
Floyd |
Floyd | Now Fozzi enters a door. There's also a door forward.
Floyd | Answer FOLLOW (Fozzi) or FORWARD :
ploppy says, "there is no logic to my choices"
ploppy says, "follow again"
wordsmith says, "might as well keep following..."
DavidW says (to Floyd), "follow"
Floyd |
Floyd | You are inside a torture-chamber. The door locked itself behind you!
Floyd | The walls are closing in. The only way out is blocked by a monster!
Floyd | Answer RUN (out) or STAY :
Knight_Otu says, "I'm hoping Fozzie isn't going to the little bear's... oh."
ploppy asks, "hey where did fozzi go?"
Jacqueline asks, "what?"
wordsmith says, "> RUN"
DavidW says (to Floyd), "run"
Floyd |
Floyd | You run straight into a monster devouring vegetables! He grabs you and
Floyd | throws you high into the air.
Floyd | You are in the loft.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Jacqueline exclaims, "FOZZI!"

Floyd |
Floyd | Unfortunately the contract is written in Kermit's illegible
Floyd | handwriting.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd |
wordsmith says, "heh"
ploppy says, "ok, so you sacrifice a possibly useful object for the contract"
DavidW says, "Well, that's completely new to me. I managed to survive but I didn't get any contract."
Knight_Otu says, "Maybe give the contract to the guard and he goes off? :p"
wordsmith asks, "I wonder if this is randomized, too?"
DavidW says (to ploopy), "That's the way early IF rolls."
wordsmith exclaims, "Where's a cucumber when you need one?!"
DavidW asks, "I think we need the guard to unlock the gate, but maybe?"
Knight_Otu says, "It was more of a jokey suggestion."
DavidW says, "well, we could also give it to the old man with the necklace."
Knight_Otu asks, "A third Statler/Waldorf?"
DavidW says, "He can be Cobb."
wordsmith says, "I need to bail soon, but I plan to be on next week."
DavidW says, "This may be a good place to stop regardless."
