Call to arms
Hi,
this will be a quick thread.
1. WE NEED NEW GMs !! I have ONE newbie wanting to try so far, more are needed to get things running more smoothly again. Also I call in on all GMs to open new waitlists NOW. Thats an order, soldier.
2. Anyone knows anything about Piggy ? If not Id like the GMC to get discussing his games now. The clock for KaoBase elimination is also ticking.
3. WOK6: I was 'busy' those last weeks (some would say different things), in fact I needed a break from coding for a while.... let me just say I consider WOK6 to be 65% finished, and maybe Ill get to give it a bit more time soon. The WOK5 bugs seem to be crushed at last. WOK6 playtesting could happen.... very soon.
4. I still have a few jobs to fill. Im mainly looking for some illustrators, and some guys with PHP/Perl skills to help me out on a few things.
5. Did you join one of our $$ programs downlines yet ?

Re: Call to arms
New GMs? I've been thinking of that. It sounds fun to look at WOK from the inside. But I'm not ready yet. Maybe around christmas or january. Then I will have five months at home looking after my newborn. Hopefully I will have some spare time when she is not crying...gm_al wrote: 1. WE NEED NEW GMs !!

And PHP is part of what I do for work, so I might be able to help there too. What are you looking for?

Yea, I kinda feel the same way Mullog. I think that I would have the time but the drive I'm not sure of. The last thing that I want to do is be a half-ars GM that doesnt run turns and dissappears of the face of the earth.
Finals are in 2 weeks then we start a new quarter. After I get settled in for the 2nd quarter(as I'm gonna have a major kick in the junk) I may give it a try. I have more credits next quarter; why did I sign up for SpanishII? And after todays impressive showing in Statics, I know I have to give school a little more time.
Whatever happened to piggy anyways?

WOK4 was done in old QBasic Dont ask.
WOK5 is a VB6 application, WOK6 will also be.
I would only share source code if this was a serious attempt of porting it to linux - of course an AUTO-GM on the Kaomaris server would be a dream !! But dont underestimate the task.
Interestingly, VB6 can load up the QBasic code of WOK4 too - it would even be possible to re-new WOK4 under VB6.... if only I had some time for this.
So at last I see a few of you coming out of the dark and offering some coding help. Thats good news I guess !
Im still very open to any PHP/Perl coding and WOK Manager porting suggestions and help, plz post here or mail me.

I can feel a Basic-to-C converter being used at some point in the near future, after I've learnt some more C...
Maybe if I rewrote it as a shell script? (that's a linux .bat )
Auto-GM is still a way away yet, but I think I can see how it may be possible, possibly not on the server yet though.
Of course, the alternative is to run the manager under an emulator, but I just feel that that'd be cheating.
