!!!!!!!!!!!
;D
!!!!!!!!!!!

That says all that needs to be said from me I think :) (though of course I will say more)

Can we have a certamen engine again, I think having something like that up and running would certainly add to the appeal. Happy to help out in whatever way I can with this. SM is still my favourite game ever and I've always been hoping for its return!

I'm willing to help on any developmental/GM angle we need.

I agree Gustav which is why I posted the what the hell is this comment.  But apparently they don't want others knowing what is so we can let them play by themselves.

I would just like to say that this does not represent my opinions in any way. I was merely asking for information, not getting mad that people were "holding back information".

Tom

Chill, everyone. We've only been "relaunched" for a few hours, so any information not forthcoming is not being held back, it simply hasn't had time to appear, yet.


Morningstar

Gustav, check out all the links Tom has posted in this thread. It should be more than enough to whet your appetite. :)

I do have quite a lot of old email RPs (from lots of people) as well... Still haven't found all the ones from when I first started, but have most from SM2...

Does anyone know of a good way to forward/route these types of things into an archive of some sort without manually adding each message? I've got everything from the reboot labeled and filtered in Gmail, which helps me but probably nobody else.

One could create a Google Group, then have everyone send the messages to its public email address...

I have a group set up like this for the old D-list (but only since maybe 2008 or something).  Hm, maybe I should post that for the people who were asking for an archive...

Count me in.  I'll happily help with whatever moderation/GM duties are needed.

=) I'm sure Jago will have some fun.

I am of course willing to GM...

Yeah, but does this help me get the stuff from my own account up quickly and publicly for others? I haven't looked at a Google Group in years.

It should, I think.  Just do a mass forward and it should work.

There are cleaner options may be are available depending on what client you have them stored in.  I suggested this one because it's pretty much universal, so far as I know.

Gmail doesn't allow for mass forwards.  I abhor Outlook. Might have to look into Thunderbird or some other IMAP.

Tom

don't be too hung up on the old stuff. SM3 will be different. :-)


Morningstar

Got it. So not worth pulling anything in from the failed relaunch?
