*sigh*
pull date from ftherland file, add 32 hours
display countdown
math of epoch time sucks

pull list of .2h files
compare to .trn files to make list of .2h that are later than their .trn
display .2h that are later than turn and list missing .2h as still need to do turn

rewrite .procmailrc to not only unpack all .2h into the game dir but also to check each time if thats the last one so we can automate hosting, then add "or 32 hours"

Basic info is fine, whatever you do extra is gravy. But yes, we are learning alot this first game, players in the next game will have the advantage of all (or most) of these issues having been worked out. It will also increase the functionality of your server for PBEM games, and perhaps make it a viable alternate for such games. Not to mention the added bonus of direct connect functionality.

A single comprehensive status link/page perhaps with links to other pages would give us a front end similar to Llama's front end. In time you may be able to incorporate game altering functions and all of that as well. The possibilities are endless.
