NorbytheRobot Posted January 19, 2002 Share Posted January 19, 2002 Anybody out there who is on the Stella mailing list getting anything through? I have resent a message twice and gotten no response. And the volume on the list is way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Slocum Posted January 19, 2002 Share Posted January 19, 2002 It's slow, but my last message went through fine about a week ago. I've had problems with messages going through before, and I found the solution in the MESSAGES section here: Stella List info -Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted January 19, 2002 Share Posted January 19, 2002 Traffic does seem to be pretty slow, but I am still getting messages. However, it does appear that people are having problems, as Billy Eno looks like he had to send his latest Warring Worms message twice for it to show up. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorbytheRobot Posted January 20, 2002 Author Share Posted January 20, 2002 Appears the problem was probably my fault. According to the info page that was politely pointed out to me the problem was I had multiple emails and my outgoing mail has a different email than what I was subscribed as. I re-subsubscribed at the correct email. Hopefully problem solved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted January 21, 2002 Share Posted January 21, 2002 Actually, I'm in the process of taking over the admin chores from Glenn, who's overly busy at the moment. Sadly, the queue apparently got too big recently, and the Biglist admin (not Glenn or I) had to dump the whole thing. I'd been looking at it previous (couldn't modify the queue however), and I *KNOW* there were valid messages there; just couldn't do anything about it. So, it's possible that if you tried to send something and it didn't get through, it might also be for that reason, and it wouldn't hurt to resend.

I think, you should post that important information to the list too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm... WHAT?!? Is this going to be permanent or just for the moment? [stella] without Glenn would be like a VCS without CPU! Will he remain a contributing member at least? And what about Death Derby?

slapdash Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 Okay, it's been posted to the list too. I'm officially Stella administrator now. Glenn will still be working on Death Derby and hanging on the list as much as he can. Part of why he wanted me to take over was so he could work on DD. On the other hand, this may very well be permanent. It's hard to say... I mean, Glenn has a kid now, while I'm a (perpetually) single guy. Who do you think has more free time to do admin chores?

slapdash Posted January 23, 2002 Share Posted January 23, 2002 Videogaming is a harsh mistress... My first official day of admin was rife with old addresses in need of deleting. Today's been much quieter so far. Thanks for your confidence Manuel. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonlightKnight Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 Well, this is pretty cool! i didn't know that the new Stella admin lived that close! I used to live in Wheeling and I still have family and friends down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 I'm actually a Wisconsin boy, but I moved down here almost five years ago for a job (and on my second one here now). In fact, that job was IN Wheeling. Ever been to Fiddlers? :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonlightKnight Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 (quote)(QB)Ever been to Fiddlers? :-) (/quote)(/QB) Sounds familiar. Where is it aprox. and I'll know. Ever been to Sauer's Bake Shop by the tracks in Wheeling? My wife works there Tues-Sat mornings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 Fiddler's is on the corner of Wolf and Palatine/Willow, or just about. Don't know Sauer's offhand... What else is nearby? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonlightKnight Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 Awesome! I used to live right near the airport just down the street from Wolf & Palatine! Market Square Resturant is in the same Plaza as Sauer's. There's also a Blockbuster and a Baskin Robbins there. It's just before you hit the railroad tracks in Wheeling while heading east on Dundee Rd. Like right before, or in other words, you hit the tracks you missed it.

MoonlightKnight Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 No seriously though, glad to see you on Stella@Biglist.com, Junie. Hopefully, Andrew Davie will help us illiterates so we have use for some of your services. I have an idea for a game, but without the vocabulary in assembly, it will never be written But should a good teacher (who willing to start from scratch with me) want to teach, I'm a fast learner And I would definately talk to you when I was finished with the programming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either my message didn't go through or I didn't do it right. I use Outlook Express as my e-mail software, and I simply hit Reply-- Perhaps I need to click on Reply to all Did you receive the message? If not I'll try it again. Hopefully if Andrew Davie does walk you thru the programming he will keep the information and make a tutorial out of it, or someone learning it will-- That way other people wanting to get into programming for the Atari 2600 has a way to learn it. Plus with a actual tutorial made, it can be updated and re-worked to make it easier for new 6502 programmers.

slapdash Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 I THINK I know where you mean about Sauer's; don't get up that way much anymore though. It's Elmhurst and Dundee, right? Hmm, should check out that Blockbuster for N64 BB exclusives... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bakery and the Blockbuster are in the shopping center behind it. If you cross the train tracks, you just misssed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an idea for a game, but without the vocabulary in assembly, it will never be written. Just to make one thing clear: Neither the Stella Mailing List nor Andrew's tutorials are meant to teach you 650x assembler. That is the basic knowledge that you have to learn yourself and there are plenty resources available that will help you there. Only when you have got at least some assembler knowledge, you will be able to follow both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
