A new game of Galactic Bloodshed is starting at spot.colorado.edu.
	To sign up send your e-mail address and your preferred password
	to crawford@spot.colorado.edu. You will then be confirmed and
	your personal race preferences questioned.

For those underprivilaged few who have never played (or perhaps
	never heard!! ) of Galactic Bloodshed, here is a quick overview.

Galactic Bloodshed is a multi-user game run in much the same
	way as tinytalk or MUDS. Up to 30+ people may be playing at
	one time. To play you must have a Unix-based account and
	have the client (see below).

Each player takes control of a race of beings, most of them
	quite different. The game starts with each player controlling
	one sector on one planet, with the minimum number of beings
	required to reproduce. The final objective of the game is
	to have complete control over x number of planets. Of course
	your opponents will be trying to do this also. :)

The best way to get an idea for this game is to simply try it
	out! If you have a Galactic Bloodshed client running that
	you have access to simply port to spot.colorado.edu 2010 and
	login as either guest or guest1. Experiment with commands.
	Most helpful will probably be 'help'.

If you do not have a client but would like one, mail to:

crawford@spot.colorado.edu
	Subject: client

In other words, make client the only word in your subject line.
	This will trigger a feature of my account which will mail
	you the gbII ( written by ekoffler@du.edu ) client, in shar
	format. To un "shar" it simply save it as a file, strip off
	the mail header, and type sh <filename>. PLEASE NOTE that
	the words "Client" or "CLIENT" will not trigger this! Once the
	program is unsharred simply type 'make' in the directory
	with all the client code. If you for some reason have problems
	with this feel free to mail me and ask for help.

If you also wish the docs, as written by writer Garrett van
	Cleef, mail in a similar manner to:

crawford@spot.colorado.edu
	Subject: docs

This will mail you the documentation for Galactic Bloodshed,
	but as I said the best way to learn GB is just to wade in and
	get wet. :)

The game will be starting hopefully Saturday the 23rd, ay
	noon, MST. Please sign up! You will not regret you did!

In case you are worrying about the time it takes to play
	the game, a game can be played with only a few minutes
	dedication per day. Your race will live on even if you
	dont EVER log in, and will in fact multiply and be fruitful,
	but dont expect to win this way. :)

Hurry! When I run out of space thaz it, though I can put
	you on a waiting list.
