Sounds good. Can we nominate you as the organizer of such of game? Someone needs to get this ball rolling.

The constant game server idea seems nice, but don't you have to constantly check to see if the current turn has completed? This is what lead me to (thinking about) making an app that emails everyone when a new turn was ready in a constant server gametype.

One question I have about multiplayer PBEM games. How do you turn a player controlled nation to AI controlled? This is needed to keep the game rolling when a player aborts his nations (which ocurrs far too often). Does the game controller need to know the PWs of all players?
