Wofan

Wofan is a play-by-mail game that was designed and moderated by Larry G. Hall, and published by The Gamemaster in 1980.

Gameplay

Wofan was a mutli-player, human-moderated play-by-mail game.[1]

Reception

David Bolduc reviewed Wofan in The Space Gamer No. 40.[1] Bolduc commented that "As a whole, I like Wofan and enjoy playing it, but it still seems somewhat disorganized, and does not presently offer the complexity of play possible in The Tribes of Crane. Hopefully Larry Hall can get the problems sorted out over the next few months. Until then, Wofan is still potentially a very good game."[1]

gollark: ```File Formats csv — CSV File Reading and Writing configparser — Configuration file parser netrc — netrc file processing xdrlib — Encode and decode XDR data plistlib — Generate and parse Mac OS X .plist files```More random stuff which probably nobody ever needs.
gollark: ```Data Compression and Archiving zlib — Compression compatible with gzip gzip — Support for gzip files```(not whole section)
gollark: Two different things for globby pattern matching, stupid amounts of different things for paths.
gollark: ```File and Directory Access pathlib — Object-oriented filesystem paths os.path — Common pathname manipulations fileinput — Iterate over lines from multiple input streams stat — Interpreting stat() results filecmp — File and Directory Comparisons tempfile — Generate temporary files and directories glob — Unix style pathname pattern expansion fnmatch — Unix filename pattern matching linecache — Random access to text lines shutil — High-level file operations macpath — Mac OS 9 path manipulation functions```The standard library being weird.
gollark: We have `let`/`const` now.
