Heh, you guys are far too paranoid. Netrek won't fail because some jackass is looking for information to make your lives difficult. Concentrate on building the playe rbase, improving the game and generally figuring out how to get more people involved, not on how to prevent people from finding out more information about the game. -----Original Message----- From: netrek-dev-bounces at us.netrek.org [mailto:netrek-dev-bounces at us.netrek.org] On Behalf Of Zach Sent: Monday, June 18, 2007 12:06 AM To: Netrek Development Mailing List Subject: Re: [netrek-dev] Emergency: yes (was "Call for feedback") On 6/18/07, James Cameron <quozl at us.netrek.org> wrote: > > To be more effective in making the game, or a subcommunity in the game, > fail.

Maybe the archives can be made secret. Depends how you define value: loc, paid advertizing efforts, time spent coaching newbies, participation in clue games, word of mouth advertizing, time spent chatting about netrek issues in IRC, # of words related to netrek send to netrek-dev, content generated for the wiki, hosting community services, etc. Zach _______________________________________________ netrek-dev mailing list netrek-dev at us.netrek.org http://mailman.us.netrek.org/mailman/listinfo/netrek-dev
