Default Re: MP Game - Humans High Gems Low Magic

Well 10,000 times $50 is a nice chunk of change. Granted thats gross and not net. But spending
.4% of gross sales on a server for the game doesn't seem unreasnable.

Regardless, Gandalf has already mentioned that it is within the realms of possibility once all the bugs have been worked out of the actual server code.

Its not like what we have available to us right now is unworkable. You can create shortcuts for each game as Gandalf mentioned, create your own tools to keep an eye on the games, all sorts of solutions.

But nobody that has used Esbens server can say that it doesn't make creating, keeping track of, and playing multiplayer games easier.

With the exception that some option are not available as of yet.

Have one giant server that the whole community can use would be an awesome addition. You could even add a point or common rating system that would not be possible with scattered and personal servers.

I doubt we would fill up 200 game slots with the current user base. Until recently there were several slots open on Esbens server left unfilled.
