Slynky, a committee of one-- yourself-- would suit me just fine. A committee of 5 makes me think about mountains and mole hills.

Better not visit the Play By Committee game, then!
We've got at least 15-20 active participants for a one-player game.

Thanks for the kind comment but...

While I think I am objective, sometimes I don't see all the points of view. Geo and I, for example, have traded opinions in this area on varioius occasions...and he usually makes very good points. So, I thought it would be a good idea to invite more viewpoints than just my own.

The Ratings system is managed by me but the members have a vested interest as well. I want every member to feel the Rating system is fair and honest.

Considering this, "government committees ( ), and mountains/molehills, perhaps we will be fine with myself, Geo, Asmala, and Gryphin.

Thanks for you input, GrandpaKim .

The website will be going through a few cosmetic changes this weekend. Adding another page and changing the nav buttons.

So, updates for the site will be done when I get the site "re-arranged".

Thanks for your patience.

Site updated:

1 game completed

Site changes:

Cosmetic changes;
Page added (more to follow);
Button navigation modified (Before, I didn't include a button for the page you were on. This led, at least for me, to "confusion" on where a particular button would be from page to page. I've put the same buttons on every page in the same place now. Makes it easier for people who click the same buttons when they navigate)

There is now a PBW (donations) page on the site. Geo and I were talking about how there just wasn't enough time to keep it updated at the PBW site so I offered a solution and he accepted. The main concern was to give proper thanks in a "public" way to those who have donated. Currently, there aren't any names listed but I am beginning "Phase II" of the "donation update". I will be emailing all the people who have donated and verify their PBW nickname (ID) and whether or not they would like that name listed on the site (or be listed as anonymous). This will take some time so please be patient. (and if you get an email, it isn't spam )
