I agree that a track record is important, but there are free games out
there that have long track records.  I doubt there is one that has the 9
year track record that Sol III does, but there are free games that have 2
+ years on them.

I did not start out to have the biggest site, but it is sort of a side
effect of having been working on the game for so many years.  There are
tons of articles and information that still need to get added, since most
gamers are what I call InfoJunkies.  I know, since I am one myself.

I believe in content over form.  Always have.
