多人BBS门游戏:LORE和红龙传奇
Seth Able Robinson (1989)
1989年,Seth Able Robinson发布了《红龙传奇》,BBS门游戏,标题屏幕上的像素化红龙统一了数千个本地拨号社区。你会以2400波特连接——那种尖叫和握手——并获得你的每日回合。但与单人游戏不同,你的行动在整个服务器上产生涟漪。杀死龙?每个人都受益。获得等级?整个社区的力量分配发生变化。 游戏明确激励强者下降帮助弱者:伙伴关系的婚姻奖励,指导奖励,经济相互依存编织到机制中。同时,系统管理员自费维护硬件和电话线,以便陌生人可以一起玩。 第42卦是益——下面的雷,上面的风,每个力量放大另一个。LORD工作是因为它被架构为相互增益:强者下降以加强弱者,慷慨行动通过网络传播,红龙守护着从牺牲诞生的友谊。
Historical Context
- Period
- 周朝
- Oracle Bone Etymology
- 风(☴)坐在上面,雷(☳)坐在下面——柔和渗透在激发运动之上。
- Traditional Use
- 经典文本描述增益为上面的强者下降以加强下面的弱者——不是强制重新分配,而是像风和雷相互放大一样的自然流动。

Practical Guidance
你正在经历实际增长。不是渴望的那种,不是演示文稿中的曲棍球棒投影——现在正在发生的能力的真实扩张。系统在工作,资源可用,势头存在。
这可能意味着:你有一个窗口。每个经历过真正功能团队的开发者都知道这种感觉——功能交付,错误被修复,沟通流畅。很容易认为它会永远持续。不会的。团队改变,需求转移,资源被重新分配。
行动不是囤积增长或防御性地保护它。行动是在这个窗口期间构建一些东西。那些BBS系统管理员没有为以后保存他们的资源——他们扩展了门游戏选择,升级了硬件,添加了更多电话线。他们使用增长来产生进一步的增长,当它可用时。
代码中的相同原则:当你有势头,当架构稳固,团队一致——那是你解决雄心勃勃的重构,实现复杂功能,偿还你一直携带的技术债务的时候。不是鲁莽地,而是果断地。
经典文本对危险是正确的:这种状态是暂时的。它是一个窗口。好好利用它,否则看着它关闭。
