New Archive Proposal

So there I was, with about 2 free minutes of time so I went over to the
wolfpack web site and clicked on the live wolfpack web cam. Geoff was
sound asleep in a chair. Markus was playing solitair on his computer and
I saw only the front end of a sheep as it bounced back and forth and
from off camera I could hear somebody moaning in a foriegn language.

Anyway, since these guys are not really doing anything <grin> I have an
idea for the web site. We could have deities of current games mail in
decent announcements from the games they are running. Then somehow, these
can get posted to the web site in a new archive area.

Now new potential players can have some reading entertainment and get some
flavor of the lighter side of the game.

How this would get implamented, I don't know. I'm just the idea guy.

Seems simple enough....Would you hvae to mail it though? Maybe there
could be a form on the site, fill in the appropriate info, and then its
posted. Voila!

Being the tech geek that I am, something PHP/MySQLish would do
wonderfully (offers services, whether programming, or a MySQL server).

"WELL KNOWN" PORT SUCH AS DEJA NEWS FOR DIRECT POST OF ALL ANNOUCE ON
