Hi Paulette.
"spoiler space" means that what follows is a possible spoiler for the game,
so people who haven't completed it on their own shouldn't read on.
putting a letter on each space is a convention that a lot of sighted gamers
use, since when reading visually, it means the screen won't scroll down and
show them a spoiler unless they go down manually, though myself I must admit
I find it a little annoying with a screen reader, since if I don't want to
read a spoiler, simply having the words spoilers below or something to that
effect is enough to let me know to stop reading, and if I do! want to read
past the spoiler warning, it's much quicker just to here Supernova say
"spoiler space" or "spoilers below" than the full letter by letter breakdown
when they're on separate lines.
That's why if i personally was going to write a spoiler I'd just say
"spoilage ahoy" or something like that, ---- but to each their own.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Hi Charles,
I don't understand your last post. Why did you put each letter for the
words, spoiler and space, on a separate line? And what do they mean? I use
backtracking, too. It works well.

Subject: [Audyssey] Stuck in the cave
Hi Dark, or anyone who can help,
I am playing the cave adventure game with a cheat sheet. I died and got
lost
so many times when I used to play the game on Compuserv, that I want to
play
and win now, even though I am using a walk through. Well, my walk through
says that when I find the gold nugget I can use the magic word, plugh, to
get back into the building. I did that and nothing happened. So, I am a
former damsel in distress. Somebody help me, please! Thanks.
Paulette
