In 2016-2017 I opened telnet (23) and a special authless sshd on 22 that both went directly into Crowther & Woods' Adventure "You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building. Around you is a forest. A small stream..." etc. and logged all keystrokes. To keep everything quaint and throttled I limited simultaneous connections to 1 and paced output to the 30 cps of a Bell 103 modem. After glancing through logs every day and performing a more comprehensive analysis after a year, of ~100k connections NOT ONE HUMAN was spotted playing the game. It's bots and worms all the way down.
