I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

is this about rewinding/fast forwarding the tape, or about when it somehow unravelled its self and you had to wind the tape back into the cassette?

Nope, Commadore 64 was my first computer.

Insert tape, press enter&play, go for tea, come back and get really fucked off that it had messed up half way though, rewind tape, press enter & play, wait, have to goto bed, pissed off again.

Dont remember much playing of the games, more waiting for the basatrd thing!

Did you ever manually rewind them, or wind them back in when they got screwed up in the tape player?

It was the other way around, snap the tab off to protect, stick tape over to re-enable writing.

I thought it was using the pencil to rewind the tape, but someone in another thread said that wasn't the connection... So I voted no...

But if that is the connection then yes.
