Re: Important notice for PBW Users.

Server is now in transit from New York to Ohio via US Postal Service.

Re: Play by Web now supports Play by E-mail (PBEM) & other features

Fuerte has recently added some support to allow PBEM helper and PBW to work together.

Onus is now on me to add support to PBW to support the enhanced PBEM helper.

Thanks,

Re: Changes from 1.35 to current load...

Yay!

Fixes 2,3 of 1.37 should really help Play by Web. Can't wait to get it published so everyone can be on the latest Version.

Re: Play by Web is now open

Your imagination is getting carried away. This is a highly multithreaded, multiprocess server. Hence, several instances of the same SE4 can be running at once. Therefore, to do it in the simple...
