   Hi.

I'm not a fan of forums however if you go to www.audiogames.net, signup should be straight forward enough and you should be able to browse the forum boards. Good luck, Ibrahim.

Hello,
Just received the notice from freelists.  How can I advertise it
there? Will my braillenote allow me to advertise it? Is it
compatible with it?

Hi.

I've just joined and will be making my first intro post to the

You might want to advertise the list on the audiogames.net
forums.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Its about
z-games and I thought you all should know about it

These games are zcode games.  And it's not just blind people that
play these,
you you should eandpect people that aren't blind to join as well.
Zblorb is
also a zcode kind of game, so you'll see discussion about those
too.  These
games can be played on windows, mac I believe, iOS, and other
platforms, so
expect that too.  Good luck with that.

Hello,
There is a new mailing list out there.  Its on freelists.  Its
called z-games and its only for text adventure or in other words
z games.  The subscription address is
z-games-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and the post address is
z-games@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
As of now I have 0 people subscribed to it.  Note: if the list
fails to work I will close it down.  When I mean close it down,
I
mean if noone subscribes to it and it doesn't worth it I will.
But will give it like 3 months before it, though.  Hope to see
you there! :
To post to the list: send your email to
erasingblindness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
There are three methods
you can use to subscribe to the list.  Please only use method
three if you
have tried method one
and method two and they both did not work.

METHOD ONE.

Send an email to erasingblindness-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with
'subscribe'
in the Subject field
and an empty message body and then follow the instructions in
the
confirmation email.  If you
do not get a confirmation email in your inbox within five
minutes of
sending your subscribe
email to erasingblindness-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx then look for
the
confirmation email in other
folders such as your spam folder or junk folder.  Different
email providers
call that folder
different names, but it is the same thing.

METHOD TWO.

Visit the list page at
//www.freelists.org/list/erasingblindness.  On
that page, fill in your email
address and pick subscribe from the list of options.

METHOD THREE.

Email me, the list owner, at blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and tell
me that
you would like to be
subscribed to the erasing blindness list and tell me what email
address
you want subscribed.
Then I will do your subscription for you.  Please specify which
email
address you would like to
be subscribed to the list with.  Do not send an email and ask me
to
subscribe you without saying

Some
people have more then
one email address and I will not know if the email address you
used to
email me with is the one
you want to be subscribed to the list with or not unless you
tell me.

The email address you are subscribed to the list with is the
email address
that all the messages
from everyone else on the list will go to.  It is also the email
address
you will need to use to send
messages to the list.  To post to the list, send your message
from the
email address you are
subscribed to the list to with to the email address
erasingblindness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Also, if you
have digest mode on
and you find a message in the digest you want to reply to,
please change
the subject to
something more specific then the subject of the digest email,
for example-
re: erasingblindness
Digest V1 #6.  Cut the other messages out of your reply and just
leave in
the message you are
replying to so that you do not end up forwarding the whole
digest to the
list.  That way, list
members who have digest mode off do not need to read through
list emails
twice.  I do not want
any members of this list bossing or attacking any of the other
list
members.  If anyone feels like
they have been bossed around or attacked by anyone else on this

LIST DESCRIPTION.

Are you blind or visually impaired and tired of being on a bunch of different mailing lists because each list will only let you talk about one topic? Well those days are over. This list is for blind and visually impaired people to talk about their disabilities and ways to overcome them and for people who can see to talk about blindness and visual impairments as well as what causes them and how to prevent them or lessen their effect on blind or visually impaired people as well as their friends, families and coworkers. We can talk about adaptive technology( hardware and software) from Humanware, Freedom Scientific, Hims, Apple and other companies. As well as that, we can talk about which websites are and are not accessible to blind and visually impaired people who use screen readers or note takers to go on the internet. All kinds of accessible games can also be talked about. We can also talk about the basics like orientation and mobility and braille. It is ok to talk about anything to do with blindness. The topics listed here do not have to be the only things we talk about. They are just some examples. If you are blind or visually impaired and want to learn how to make your life easier and more fun or you are a person who can see and you want to learn about blindness and visual impairments as well as what causes them and how to prevent them or lessen their effect on blind or visually impaired people as well as their friends, families and coworkers, then please join this list. This list is in English. Also check out the Erasing Blindness Blog that goes with this list at www.blindnesseraserblog.wordpress.com. If you have any questions or comments about
the Erasing Blindness Mailing List and or Blog, please feel free to email
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx. Thank you. End of list description.

GENERAL GUIDELINES

Please keep the subject lines up to date with what is being talked about in the message bodies. If you have a question you want to ask or you want to say something and it does not fit in with any of the current threads, then please start a new thread. Also, if you have digest mode on and you find a message in the digest you want to reply to, please change the subject to something more specific then the subject of the digest email, for example- re: erasingblindness Digest V1 #6. Cut the other messages out of your reply and just leave in the message you are replying to so that you do not end up forwarding the whole digest to the list. That way, list members who have digest mode off do not need to read through list emails twice. I do not want any members of this list bossing or attacking any of the other list members. If anyone feels like they have been bossed around or attacked by anyone else on this list, please email
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and tell me about it so we can try to sort it out.

ABOUT ATTACHMENTS

If you have an article, document, game file, short audio file or anything else you would like to share, please do so. You can email any file type as long as it is not a virus. Total message size is limited to 5 MB. This includes your attachment as well as what you write in your email. Please note that people who have digest mode off will receive attachments sent to the list, but people who have digest mode on will not receive these attachments. For people who have digest mode on, if there is an attachment that was sent to the list and you want it, please email blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and I will send you the attachment. I will never turn digest mode on for myself on this list. For people who post attachments to this list, please say in the body of the message that your message has an attachment in it or put has attachment as part of the subject line. That way, people who have digest mode on will know that there was an attachment posted to the list. Attachments are also archived and only attachments known to carry viruses are filtered from them. Thank you. To post to the list: send your email to erasingblindness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx. There are three methods you can use to subscribe to the list. Please only use method three if you have tried method one and method two and they both did not work.

METHOD ONE.

Send an email to erasingblindness-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the Subject field and an empty message body and then follow the instructions in the confirmation email. If you do not get a confirmation email in your inbox within five minutes of sending your subscribe email to erasingblindness-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx then look for the confirmation email in other folders such as your spam folder or junk folder. Different email providers call that folder different names, but it is the same thing.

METHOD TWO.

Visit the list page at //www.freelists.org/list/erasingblindness. On that page, fill in your email address and pick subscribe from the list of options.

METHOD THREE.

Email me, the list owner, at blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and tell me that you would like to be subscribed to the erasing blindness list and tell me what email address you want subscribed. Then I will do your subscription for you. Please specify which email address you would like to be subscribed to the list with. Do not send an email and ask me to subscribe you without saying which email address you want to be subscribed to the list with. Some people have more then one email address and I will not know if the email address you used to email me with is the one you want to be subscribed to the list with or not unless you tell me.

The email address you are subscribed to the list with is the email address that all the messages from everyone else on the list will go to. It is also the email address you will need to use to send messages to the list. To post to the list, send your message from the email address you are subscribed to the list to with to the email address erasingblindness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

If the email address you used to send your message to the list to is not subscribed, then it will not go to the list. It will just come to me.
