The DND game and the StarTrek game on PLATO were both around in 1977. IIRC, the PLATO system I worked with ran on a CDC 6600 that I think was physically in the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area. The University of Nebraska was linked by a dedicated leased line. There was one extremely obese guy I remember who could be found in the basement of Ferguson Hall playing DND at 3:00 am often, although I never saw this same person on the campus in the daylight hours, ever.
