Re: Dedicated Servers?
OK new thought on dedicted servers which Id like to put here. I see alot of back and forth traffic concerning email addresses for the games.
If we do create (eventually) a web-based manager for Doms games then one of the options on signup could be "Do you need an email address for the game?". If they answer yes then an address could by created automatically. It would work fine exactly the same as any other mailbox with POP pickup, or maybe forwarded to a real email address. Able to receive and send. Hmmm some sort of proection from being abuseable as anonymous email boxes are.
Still it would be fun to be able to create a "MrGreenJeans Chancellor of Pangaea" Pan-G22@ for game 22 in order to play. This way the game players would have a way to do diplomac without the long-term affects of using their real names and addresses. It would be interesting to play without the honor-bound-paladin expectations of playing as Gandalf.
