After Llamaserver implemented the functionality where people could create new games, the number of games have multiplied. I wouldn't be surprised if this is the reason we've hit the limit :(

Re: llamaserver and e-mail problems

It's new day already, so it would send some more now. And llamaserver not refreshing + weird actions when trying to to anything with for example postponing suggests more serious problem.

We were concerned about that. I created a MakeGame link on my server but never put it into use.

On a direct-connect server like mine the load would by much greater. We were hoping that a PbEM server could handle it better. But the idea that having it TOO easy to make a game would lead to a glut of same games that no one joins was a worry. Are there even threads here pitching most of the games made?

I've never seen a problem with supply out stripping demand. There always seems to be more people willing to play, then there are games, even with Llamabeast putting up the new "start a server" command page.

I know that on my own server Ive questioned whether or not I should offer so many games. They rarely fill up and many of them end up with one or two players waiting for weeks for other people to join. Too many games only increases that situation. Rules of supply and demand.

I've only noticed that for the games that have really weird settings, or for people who start them and don't understand how to advertise their games properly. I always have a status meter in the title that shows how many spots are open and how many spots are left.

I've been looking to join a game for the past few weeks and have turned down every one because of mods or weird house rules. I'll probably just start another.
