LaPimp
The Adult Game with an Attitude
CAUTION: This is an ADULTS game and contains explicit language and sexual subjects. Be careful who you give access to on this program.
LaPimp is an adult oriented game with some very interesting things to do. Basically, the game evolves around the user being a pimp and trying to make the most money as possible. He/she can obtain his girls and then increase their attributes by sending them to school. They make money for the user and he can then invest his/her money as they see fit. There are many other things to do in the program, such as gamble at Blackjack, a Number Guessing game, a private and public message base, a sabotage menu, where users can fight other users, and do bad stuff to other users stuff. There is a graffiti wall where users can write messages to others to tease. There is also a bank with a loan department, police to pay off, thugs to purchase to protect your girls. Online help is available for the user and many more options

Installation
Installation is fairly simple. Just create a folder anywhere you want the program to reside. You can call it anything you want, but I suggest LaPimp. Unzip the contents of the archive to that folder using a 32 bit ZIP program. Copy any WCX files over to your Wildcat folder and add the item to your menu. Under the parameter section of WcMenu, be sure and add the location of the LaPimp program. Include the full path with drive location. Be sure and mark the correct access in this part of the program. I do not suggest letting people under 18 of age into this program!
NOTE: If using this program over multiple machines, you should specify the actual computer name and the drive name followed by the folder name(s).
That is all there is to it. You should then log on in local mode and run the program. This will create the additional files and folders required by the program. At his point you should enter the stock part of the program (X from menu) to have the stocks created. This is not a requirement, but will make it look a little better for the users.
Additional optional installation steps are to edit the file called EMAIL.DAT. Currently this file contains the phrase
Larry.Anderson@Juno.com, which is my email address. If users press A to send suggestions and or bugs, this will automatically send it over the Internet to me. If you do not have net access, you can change it to my regular name or to your name.
You can also create a file with a text editor called WHOS.DAT. In this file would be a third party WHO IS ONLINE program to run. The first line should contain the name of the WCX file to run and the second line should contain either a parameter required by the program or a blank line.
You may also create a file called CHAT.DAT that would contain the same type of information for the CHAT WITH OTHER USERS function.
NOTE: If the user does not normally have access to the chat room or to the Who is on line program, they will not be able to use it from here either.
Technical Information
Quite a few folders and files are created upon execution of the program and as new users are entered into the game. Here is a list of the structure of the program.
This example assumes that the default folder you installed LaPimp to is called LaPimp.

Additional files can be created depending on some situations, but the program will clean up after itself in a pretty good fashion.
MAIN MENU
This part will explain item by item what each menu item does. You should NOT let your users see this, as it will give away a lot of the secrets of the game. I suggest that you, as SysOp do not play the game as a competitive force, as if you do well, users will think that you cheated. You do have the ability to do that, so just play, but don't win!
This allows the user to send mail to me or to the SysOp telling of bugs or suggesting improvements to the game. By default, when shipped, this contains my e-mail address and if you have net access, mail will be sent to me and I can then reply from my Juno account. However, if you do not want to implement this part, just put your name or another name into the file called EMAIL.DAT located in the LaPimp folder.
This is where the users can buy condoms. They are bought in boxes of 10 and the price ranges from 50 to 99 bucks a box. The price is set in the morning when the first user enters the program and stays that rate till the next day when it is set again. This information is store in the file called CONDOM.PRICE located in the LaPimp folder.
This runs the Chat between Nodes program built into Wildcat. It puts you right into the chat Room and if you exit the chat room, you will be right back into the game. The program checks to see if the user has access to the chat room first and if not, informs them of this.You can optionally create a file called CHAT.DAT and put it in the LaPimp folder and my program will run a third party chat room program. This file should contain two lines, the first being the name of the chat room program to run (WITHOUT THE .WCX) and the second line should be the parameter required by the chat program. If there is no parameter required, then you should add a blank line, so that the DAT file contains two lines.
This function here visits the doctor, where you can have your health repaired, and your whores health fixed. This costs money to use this function, but is an important part of the game. If your girls are sick, they will not get much business. The doctor does not perform any abortions, and cannot resurrect the dead. The doctor can also perform doctor assisted suicide for free.
This is a safe place to keep your money. You can basically deposit money and withdraw money from your account. This information is displayed at all places that require you to spend money. There is also a loan department that will allow the users to make a loan from the bank. Interest is set at 20 percent, so if you borrow $1,000, you will have to pay back $1,200. There is not deadline when this is to be paid, but when you have money owed, half of your daily earnings from your girls goes towards paying the debt off. This is AFTER your girls are paid off their percentage. You cannot borrow additional money until your loan is paid off. The amount you can borrow is dependant on how strong you are. You can view your strength with the V function of the main menu. See V for more details. You can borrow up to 20 percent of you total strength.
This is where you hire your girls to work for you. When a new player starts the game, they are allowed to have three girls. Each whore house level they build will increase this total to ten times the whore house level. You are allowed to hire ten girls a day and only allowed to pick from ten girls. Some of these whores are really 'raw' looking. But they can all be increased in value by sending them off to school.
There is a file called WHORES.DAT that contains the whores names, you can edit this if you wish. Just delete the WHORES.IDX file after altering it and a new IDX file will be created. Every 1st day of each month, this file is redone automatically.
This function if used to hire a thug to lower the chance of a girl being robbed. The better thug you hire, the less chance of being robbed. There are 25 levels of thugs in the game and you can edit the names of the thugs by changing the contents of the THUGS.DAT file. Each girl can have each own thug or no thug at all. You can change thugs at anytime.
This function is also used to change a girls percentage. Her percentage is the amount of money that the girl gets from doing her work. You originally set this amount when the girl is hired. Valid rates are from 0-100. Each girl has a hidden value that she is trying to reach, if she reaches this value, she will quit this line of work and you will be whore less. Of course, the more you pay a girl, the quicker she will reach her goal. However, the less you pay her, the less tricks she will do for you and also, you increase the chances of her ripping you off. If you pay one too much, she could get lazy and do less tricks also.
This is the online help file for the users. I suggest you tell the users to read this, it contains some useful information on how to play the game along with some tips. You cannot modify this text.
This just lists all the players in the game.
This is the lottery game. When first starting the game, the lottery is set at $1,000,000 and is increased by $10 whenever a ticket is bought. Tickets only cost $1 each, but increase the lottery jackpot by $10 for each ticket sold. There is a drawing during the morning maintenance and all winners will be informed when they enter the game. Matching 3 pays 5 bucks while matching 4 will pay a percentage of the jackpot. Matching all 5 will pay the whole thing to the winner and cause it to be reset. When you purchase a ticket, it is good for all week. You can have as many tickets as you want, and all tickets are thrown away on Sunday. I wish all lotteries acted this way!
This menu should be called the sabotage menu as you do not really kill anyone from here. You can however make their life miserable.
You can challenge another user. This is rather a unique option that allows a user to issue a challenge to another user. They can bet any amount of money that they have available to bet. The only limitation is that they cannot be 8 times greater in overall strength than the person that they are challenging. Odds are then set according to each others strength. Strength is based on several factors, including money, whores, whore value and many other attributes are figured into the complex scoring system. If for instance, a user was challenging another user with a 'score' of 2000. If their score was 8000, then the challenger would be favored 4-1. That means if the challenger wins, they would win 1000 dollars, but risk losing 4000 dollars. Interesting enough, the odds stay at 4 to 1, even if the actual odds change when the challenge is accepted.
Bribe a whore to come work for you. This is an interesting option, it gives the user the ability to get some of the competitions girls. You have to bribe her to do this and the amount required is determined by the girls GOAL and also by her thug protection. If a girl accepts the bribe, you assume her statistics and also her thug level. Her goal is also increased by whatever you bribed her with, thus getting her closer to retiring. This should be used with caution, as you could spend more getting this girl than what she would make you. But you also cause this other player to lose a whore and points off their overall score.
Sabotage player is fun. For a small fee, you hire Rodney Scumbag to poke holes in your enemy's condoms. This can, but not always, cause the condom to fail and the girl get pregnant. For a small fee, you can have Rodney check your condoms for holes to prevent this. If Rodney finds any defective condoms, he will be able to tell you who hired him to do that. Make sure you have enough money for this option, or you may find a few holes in your condoms.
Spy other whores lets you examine other peoples whores to find one you may want to steal. This costs money, but can be well worth the investment.
Accept challenges allows you to accept challenges from other users, if you have any waiting for you.
Spy on your whores is an interesting item. This option let's you spend money on a spy to go check out your own whores in action. This is basically a tool to allow you to see if your girls are ripping you off. This is not a 100 percent method, as if the girl is smart, the spy will not catch her. If she is ripping you off, this is a sign you are not paying her enough.
The games in here as of this writing is first, the Lousy Number guessing game, this is one of those number guessing games whereas the user tries to guess a number from 1-100 in a certain amount of guesses. 5 guesses in this game, and for some extra money, the guy will give you an extra guess. Watch it, this guy is a crook.
The other game is a Black jack game that can be a lot of fun to play. You can make some money at it also.
The message menu has a public message area and a private area. Messages can be of up to 20 lines and each have a subject. When you enter the game, you will be told of any new messages to you and also the general status of your message inbox. There is also a spell checker to check your spelling. This is a stand alone message base and is not used in conjunction with the Wildcat system.
The next day option is used to make money from your girls. Unless the girl is in school, this is where she can prove her worth. She gets seven (7) days per actual day. If you would like to increase this, see the advanced options further in this file. I do suggest that you keep it set at 7 for the best playability. When you pick next day, there are two options that are given, Itemized or summary. Itemized lists each girl and each trick one by one and then pauses for ten seconds or until a key is hit. Summary just displays how that girl did during that round. Do not use summary if you are spying on one of your girls. Towards the end of the actual day, (your 5th, 6th and 7th next day), your girls will have more tricks, due to it being the weekend.
Other things can happen during this time, your girl could have a leaky condom and get pregnant, she could reach her goal or one of her attributes could get raised from experience.
You can list the action by two methods, one is Summary and the other is an Itemized list. The summary is nice when you get a quite a few whores and want to quickly go through the day. The itemized list is REQUIRED if you are spying on one of your girls.
This option will list the other users online on the system. By default, it uses the built in Wildcat who is online command. IF you have a third party program, like my LaWho, you can have it run that by creating a file called WHOS.DAT with two lines in it. The first being the name of the WCX file to run and the second being the parameter needed by the program. If no parameter is needed, then make sure you just have a blank line as the second line. If the user does not have access to the who is online command, they will not be given it though my program.
This option is used to pay the police off so your girls do not get busted as often. Basically the program will check the average per girl and if it is over $333 then the girl will be protected from being busted. No completely, but pretty close to it. The lower the amount paid, the less protection and the more she will get busted. As you add more girls, you will have to add more to the police payoff. If you add to your whore house, the police payoff is reset to zero. If you try to rip the cops off, you will not be able to pay for the payoff till the next day.
This returns you to the BBS. It writes to the log that you have exited the program. Your user statistics are saved once more, but they are also saved after everything that changes them, to keep people from dropping carrier as soon as something bad happens.
If you have a whore that is not producing for you, or one that is dishonest, you may want to release her. Or you may see one that you want to steal, but have to many girls. So this option releases the girl allowing you to add one more.
This is the famous Whore School. This is where you can make your whore a better whore, which will allow her to make more money for you. You MUST select this option before you press the N key for next day. You can send all your girls to school, but each girl can only raise one attribute per day. She also is unavailable to perform tricks that day if she goes off to school. The cost is based on her current level. It costs more money to go to level 9 then it does to go to level 4. She can also lost weight, which also helps her make more money.
This displays the log of what happened today. This is a very detailed list of events that happened though out the day pimp day. Smart users will use this as a tool to help see who is doing dirty deeds and what is happening. This file is deleted and restarted when the maintenance is ran in the morning.
Upgrading the whore house allows you to have more whores. When you have no whore house, you are allowed three whores. When you get the first whore house, you will be then allowed 10 whores to work for you. Level 2 allows 20, level 3 allows 30, etc. You are allowed up to 20 levels of whore house, which would allow 200 whores. I would think that most contests would be over by that time. If you let the contest run too long, then you get a super pimp that no one can catch up to. When you upgrade the whore house, the police payoff is reset to zero.
This created the top 20 list for viewing. A top 20 list for pimps and for whores is created when this option is selected. This is the same list that is created when the game is over and reset. This also is what creates the top pimp and the top whore that is seen when the user enters the game. Note that due to how long it can take to figure out the top whore when there are several hundred whores in the game, these functions are only done when the user selects it from a menu. I do plan on adding an event driven separate program that could do this at different times of the day, if people request this option. Pimps are rated on many different things, including, number of whores, value of whores, money in bank and many other attributes. This is a very complex formula that will not be revealed and will more and likely be modified in future releases. Also the formula for the whores is just as complex and rates her on many things, with some things being more important than others.
This will bring up a screen that looks like so:
A)
B) List all whores thugs
C) List all whores percent
D) List all whores goal reached
E) Search for a whore by name
F) List all info about whores
G)
Get Thug is Off
First option is to list all of your whores. This is just to get their names for easy reference. The second, lists all your whores and what thug level they have. The third of course lists the whores and what percent you are paying them. The next selection lists the percentage of the goal reached by the girls. This is a good place to judge when a girl is about to climax her visit in the world of whoring. Item E will allow you to search for a whore by a portion of her name, and F will list all the whores. If the GET THUG is off, then only information about the girls will be displayed. If it is on, they you will get a chance to change the whores thug or her percent. When using the F key, you can press E to exit at anytime while displaying all the girls.
The stock market is a quick way to make some money, or possibly lose some. There are 20 stocks available and each one can rise or lower in price everyday. Just as in the real stock market, you should by low and sell high. Of course, you can buy some of the higher priced stocks, they have less chance to drop rapidly as the lower price ones will. All stock can drop or raise by 1, 2 or by as much as 20 percent of their value. You can sell at anytime for a loss or a profit. The program remembers what you paid for the stock and how many shares you have. You can examine it at anytime. The program also shows the value for each stock, based on the last 10 days. The figures in red mean the stock has dropped in price, while in green means the price has been rising. Note that stock that has been dropping are usually the best buys, as they are due to rise soon. Avoid the real low priced stock, as they will have a hard time rising.
This is the graffiti wall that the users can add whatever they want to it. Anything goes, no spell checking is done, no vulgar language is checked and like I say, anything goes. Users will find this a useful tool in provoking other users, leaving love messages or just acting crazy. It is sort of like a bulletin board where notes are posted. They can be in color and even shows a color chart showing how to add color. There can be 19 lines in the wall, when a 20th is added, he oldest one (the bottom one) will be deleted.
The program can be run forever without having to do anything. It will take care of itself, as maintenance is performed automatically. There is a contest option, which I strongly advise you to use. You set the contest for a certain number of days and when that day is reached, the game will be over. The high scores are saved to a folder called SCORES, that can be accessed from the program. All the users are then deleted, new whores are created and basically, the game is reset. However, you will be required to reset the contest, if you do not, then the new contest will start using the length of the last one. Cool, eh?
The SysOp menu should be self explanatory, this is used in case you see some user that has figured out a way to cheat, or if you want to just play around with some values. Note, that the SysOp menu is only available to users that have either their name or their security level in the SYSOP.DAT file. Also, the program MUST be registered to use most of the functions in the SysOp menu.
The strange event is just that, a strange event. You can modify this file, the STRANGE.DAT file, and it will randomly pick one for the user. Only one can be displayed per entry into the program and it will happen at various times. Some events will cause good or bad stuff to happen. Most are just funny things, well, by my standards.
Every Wednesday, when the maintenance is ran, the IDX file for the whores will be deleted, which will cause the whores to be regenerated.
There is a file called LaPimp1.BBS that will be copied over to your disp folder under your Wildcat folder that will show the menu. You can change the screen colors, etc from this file after it is copied over. It will be copied over the first time the program is executed.

I would like to think Bruce for his help and suggestions in the development of the program along with Pix from PixNix.bbs and his users for their support and suggestions for this program. A special thanks to all the users of Pix's system that tried the game while it was being developed and had to put up with the restarts. Also thanks goes to Cindy Ryan in her beta testing the high level of the games, where not too many people have reached.
