Play by Web is now open

[LazarusLong42]

Woo!!

As part of the team that built PBW, it's great to see us finally open to the public. Those of you playing in the mega-elimination tourney probably already know how nice it is.

But don't take my word for it; go see for yourself!

Also: many, many kudos to Admiral for having the vision to create this--and the ability to program it.

I'd like to add that Admiral and Lazarus are quite quick to reply to bug reports and feature requests, as well.

Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft

Yes please check this out it is something I think is of great value to our community.

Thanks to everyone who worked hard on this, it's very cool...

Do you know when support for mods will be ready? I would really like to play as a Pirate in a universe of humans . All I gotta do is figure out how to get a good "capture ships" combat strategy.

The order of implementation for the remaining long-term to-do items is currently open. I'll be conducting a survey of the Users.

Here is a priority list for you:

1) Support for PBEM helper.
2) Forced turn generation on work days (Mon-Fri) only. Maybe it has this already?

PBEM

[Admiral]

Forced turn only on weekdays is not (yet) directly supported, but the game owner can go in on Friday and move the automatic turn generator ahead three days to Monday.
