Re: [s-d] Ding dong the witch is dead.

In the time since the game stopped progressing, Real Life (tm) has  
consumed more and more of my time, so I'm not sure I could keep  
playing if we started again.

I do still have complete dumps of all the game data. These include  
the SQL tables, containing all versions of all rules, proposals, and  
CFJ/CFIs from before we switched to the wiki, and an enormous tar  
file containing the complete wiki, the complete older version of the  
wiki, all the relevant scripts, and a couple of unrelated files.

I could probably extract the current ruleset from this mess, if it  
would help.


In order to get going again, the following things need to happen:
1. Somebody needs to volunteer to be Administrator.
2. Somebody needs to get us some web space (Joel, is b.nomic.net  
still available?)
3. The Administrator needs to install a wiki package (MediaWiki would  
be good) in said web space.
4. The players need to set up all the relevant pages for the nomic.

So, does anyone want to be Admin?

"This gubblick contains many nonsklarkish English flutzpahs, but the  
overall pluggandisp can be glorked from context"
