Back in the late 1970s I spent most of my time in High School playing and/or writing computer games. Recently an acquaintance pointed me toward the source code of Swords, a game that I played back then. For the curious, that source code is here, along with a description of the game. Anyway, I wanted to play this game again, so I ported the code to be able to run in a web browser. Now you too can play below (or click the "Read More" link if you're viewing this on the front page). Enjoy!
This site had problems that made it display wildly incorrectly when viewed using HTTPS rather than HTTP. When I started out way back in the dark ages, my web host did not support HTTPS, at least not with the $4/month plan that I was on. Apparently they do now, which is good because pretty much every site uses HTTPS these days, but my Nucleus CMS installation was not properly set up for it, so the display was wildly off.
I've put in a quick fix but am contemplating completely redoing everything.

Facebook is full of this kind of quiz, so I thought I'd try making my own. (It may not work properly in some older Microsoft browsers.)
"I am the nominee, whether you like it or not."
The rules boil down to: This is my home on the Internet. You are a guest here. You're expected to behave with the kind of reasonable manners that you would observe while visiting somebody else's house.
