OK, I've decided to take the plunge. I will be running a game of VGA
Planets, starting as soon as I get players to fill all the slots. The game
will be run with the initial starting distance on medium.

I have not registered the game yet, so tech will be limited to level 6 at
the start. I'm going to be sending in my $10 tomorrow, so this will change
as soon as I get the registered version.

The game will use passwords -- call me paranoid if you like.

You may choose a name for your race if you like.

I will be playing as the Cyborgs. I give my word of honor that I will not
cheat, but you are going to have to trust me. If you don't like the idea of
the host being a player, don't join this game.

Turnaround time for turns will be one week maximum. If I receive all the
turns before the time limit, I will run them through and start the next
turn. If the one week limit proves to be to long or short, I may change it.

To sign up, mail me at dpn2@po.cwru.edu. Give a list of the races you want
to be, in order of preference. First come, first serve. Include the password
you want to use.

If there is a large amount of interest in playing, I may consider starting
other games.

For those of you who have not heard of VGA Planets, it is a
shareware strategy PBeM for MS-DOS. It uses a graphical front end to
simplify turn creation. The game may be FTPd from ftp.ucsc.edu.
