Usenet is still going strong (well, it's still going) and we're always happy to welcome new commenters. However, you are probably better off using a dedicated Usenet provider rather than relying on GoogleGroups. The most frequently recommended is Eternal-September.org, largely because it is a free service. You'll need a proper NNTP client (Microplanet Gravity is free http://mpgravity.sourceforge.net/ ) for best results. Comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic doesn't see much traffic these days; computer game conversations have mostly consolidated around Comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action so you're welcome to join us there. However, if it is just Constructor you are interested in, you may be out of luck; it was a quickly forgotten game even when it was new and your "necropost" was the first mention I've seen of it in decades ;-)
