The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
Bomns is by far the greatest game to ever grace the face of the earth. It has a HUGE cult following (largely based in Asheville, NC) because of its immense fun factor and its unique ability to increase your sex appeal and significantly lengthen your life. Originally conceived by Charles Lindsay, it has taken many forms since the first "Bomns".
