Greetings!

I just thought I'd drop y'all a note to let you know that Simultaneous
Risk is up and running on gamerz.net in beta.  We have created a mailing
list to discuss the pros/cons of the various design decisions I've made.

To join the discussion, send a message to esquire@gamerz.net with a
message BODY of

subscribe risk-users

If you'd like to try the risk server, you need to be a signup with my
PBeM Server.  To join, send a message to pbmserv@gamerz.net with a
SUBJECT line of

Subject: signup USERID PASSWORD

(choose an appropriate USERID and PASSWORD, it will determine your
email address from the mail headers.)

This will create a pbmserv account for you.  Once that is done, you
can send a message to pbmserv@gamerz.net with a SUBJECT line of

Subject: risk challenge USERID1 USERID2 [ ... USERID6 ]

where USERIDx is a valid pbmserv userid (e.g., I'm rrognlie)  You will
be subscribed to pbmserv-users@gamerz.net which is where you can issue
invitations to other players to have them challenge you, or to let you
know that they might be up for an X player games of Simultaneour Risk
(it supports up to 6 players).

Be warned, there is little/no documentation yet, but the play is
interesting.

To see what we've come up with so far, send a message to pbmserv@gamerz.net
with a SUBJECT of

Subject: risk show 101 102 103

boards 101,102,103 are three games that are currently in progress.
