====================================================================== Power's Edge Announce: New Universe Starts Saturday! Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2004 13:49:54 +0000 Announcement from the Moderator to All Leaders: A new universe, Wilderness Justice, is now open for new players! This universe is a successor to the old Web of Intrigue and Rival Alliances universes, with modified rules. It features a high level of diplomacy, using our immediate-message-by-email system. Play starts this Saturday! For more details see http://www.powersedge.net/?Page=universes and click on the WJ-Rules link. On a related note: We have signed up so many new players in recent weeks that all of our universes briefly filled up a few days ago. However, the server is not stressing out at all, so we boosted the maximum size of all the open universes. We now have room for another 200 new Leaders! We are making it a top priority to improve the user-friendliness of the system in the hope that more of the new Leaders will figure out how to play and begin to enjoy Power's Edge. The two top priorities are an immediate nation-creation system, so that new Leaders can submit moves as soon as they sign up, better instructions in the emails sent to new Leaders, and some tutorial advice included with the first few newspapers. The Leader's Guide is also being updated with a complete table of contents. Other suggestions are welcome, though our resources are (as usual) very limited. -- Power's Edge, http://www.powersedge.net/ P.S. If you are no longer playing, please open the newspaper that you received with your turn email yesterday, and use the Resign button inside the newspaper to resign. After your resignation goes through (on the next update), you will no longer receive these messages.
