Thanks for your ideas! I appreciate it!

I kind of feel like a weirdo for not chatting a lot, I guess?

I think cheddar on top of apple pie is a pretty common thing, but American cheese sounds off.

I don't know. Windows 7 was widely considered to be the nadir.

Gosh! This takes me back! What a great game!

I bought the various flavors of Gameboy just to play the slew of those games.

Always welcome! I share my thoughts freely to help! This is a fascinating set of questions, and I can't wait to see what people are sharing.

I also think an interesting question is about how they are formed. The flavor of a forced settlement (prisoner transport) versus an opportunistic settlement (rich resources) is going to influence a lot of the behavioral patterns of the people.

I tend to play a lot of the old text-tile games that I cut my teeth on back starting with Angband. Any of those variants are enjoyable, but I pretty much stick to Zangband (Angband adding in the work of Zelazny) and frogcomposband (It's a mouthfull, but FUN).

I think you hit on one of the key points. Every other time this same pattern has played out, each of those sites becomes a shadow of what they once were, but the continue because (to be blunt) running Internet sites is CHEAP.
