Please don't insult me - I never said, nor do I want to play my ruleset to avoid learning others. I wish more people on forums were like Kirby.

Nevertheless, wms doesn't have to fulfill easy visions that aren't his, so I'll have to keep looking.

My apologies, I misunderstood this quote as "I don't need to play on a server where I have to figure out which rulesets it uses". I see now what you actually meant.

In that case though, even less reason not to play turn based games on OGS.

Of course, but since this is the internet, we will say when your opinions are wrong.

KGS and IGS may have larger user bases than OGS, but everyone on OGS is looking to play turn-based games, whereas very few people are looking to do that on KGS. So, for what you want, OGS probably has a lot more users than KGS does (I can't speak for IGS).

I'm glad to hear that OGS is so popular, but I'm considering DGS too.

BTW, hijacked?

No, you're wrong! :-p

And by "we", I suppose you mean the collective public which disagrees with me, right?

Not to mention, on dedicated turn-based servers most active users are playing many games simultaneously. This is why when you look at a server like dragon ( I personally haven't played on OGS, but I would imagine it is similar), it will have >1000 games updated in the last few hours, as opposed to KGS which has ~500 games running at any given time. If you have 200 users logging in at a given time to update their 10 games (honestly both these numbers might be low, just going for ballpark estimation), it means quite a large number of opportunities to find games....

Very true...
But to understand this, a person needs a willingness to compromise and the ability to look outside some self-imposed box.

Just sayin'...

So, I guess wms has abandoned this thread.

I've abandoned all threads. I was on vacation for the past two weeks with very little chances for internet access.

Now I don't even remember what this thread was about. The topic ("resuming games") doesn't seem to apply to the last few messages, which seem to be discussing pbem-style games.

Oh, okay. sorry.
