Rescuing princesses since tea-time, if I can work out which button to press. #retrogaming #retrocomputing

Yes, that was kind of the point.
(The @ ing is because I'm replying from Mastodon, it does that by default)
@Wooly I pay for the bags, but only once.
@o0joshua0o @bedsnewsbot Chucking a sofa on the side of the road, that sort of thing.
@dpunked I've not played it, but I think it'll be this one: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/71/civilization
@Barbarian @dpunked I believe Civilization actually started as a boardgame, so that's more a boardgame to videogame conversion.
@chris @videodrome Still can't get it to work, even with 5.5 and adding to Trusted Sites. It installed the ActiveX component, then stopped here.
@floppy @Twig Oh, this is incredible. Playing now on a real Plus/4. #commodoreplus4 #lemmings
@videodrome Just updating to IE5.5 like it's 1999.
@Emperor I'd like to add:
Martin Lewis @MartinLewis (hasn't posted for ages)
Helen Czerski @helenczerski (posts frequently, please follow 🙂)
@133arc585 @brand I found that when I imported I had to manually add lots of missing books and then import again. I think the import might have improved since then - adding books definitely has, as it usually finds them to import now (when I joined it was a purely manual process)
@losttourist I don't think you can - just posts. That favourites view shows all posts you've favourited (upvoted). It's a good way of bookmarking until we get actual bookmarking.
@sarahdal @floppy @frozengriever Yes, I think it was for 200 years or something - long enough for it to get forgotten about! There was a guy in Orkney spent his life trying to get them back under Norwegian rule.
@Rainbright @bookstodon @Remillard Bookwyrm works fantastically as a GoodReads alternative! It just doesn't federate quite as well as it could (across different platforms), but that's no big deal. I can read, follow, etc from Mastodon no problem, Takahē misses some posts, and I've not tried from kbin yet (the instance I'm on is having federation issues).
@Remillard @bookstodon @Rainbright Hashtags on #Bookwyrm don't seem to work properly, unless that has been fixed. In theory though it ought to work as you say. Default hashtags for certain Bookwyrm events might be good too. I've not posted to Bookwyrm since following my account from kbin, so not sure how it works there.
@Knoll0114 If it's only just turned up then it was very slow! I think the servers are having a nightmare under the sudden increased load, but good to know it works!
@tom @HumanPenguin If it helps, I managed to subscribe from kbin (fedia.io), so federation is definitely working.
