I think the changes JP has made are great and I hope he keeps up the good work. Thanks JP.

I hate to disagree with you BD but I have heard of lame crap in TW but until someone can explain why these changes are being made and for whos benefit they are making these changes- I think this is on the lame side of tw.

Well, let's see exactly what has been changed.

1) Minor changes to the appearance of the TWGS login screen.
2) Time limit and penaltys changed. (It was worthless in the state it was in because of bugs)
3) Planet list sorted by sector number instead of planet number. (Makes it a lot easier to keep track of planets I think)
4) Mail data files no longer grow so large that they corrupt the game and bog down the server. (Pretty good change wouldn't you agree?)
5) A few changes in the TWGS log in sequence that might help keep nodes from locking up.
6) A few options were changed from global to local game options. (A lot easier to have different style games with this change.)
7) You can bang a game without taking the server offline now. (I've been wanting this for ages.)

There might be a few more less noticeable changes that JP can elaborate on, but none of these changes are going drastically change style of play or break any script that minor fixes can't take care of. So tell me why this is lame?

I think Ohio is still in the USA? lol

yeah, but it still sux here...

Booger I am originally from Coshocton... lol yea you will have to look it up on the map it is pretty small

But I know the area D is from and it is even smaller

heh. I suppose I better learn the difference between AM and PM. laff At least Ohio doesn't have all those rattlesnakes, cottonmouths, scorpions, and multiple types of poisonous spiders.

we have fiddlebacks and copperheads(which are closely related to rattlers). plus we have the police. more dangerous than any animal... and jail around here is over capacity to the point of sleeping on the floor.

sadly i know where coshocton is...

Ohio does have great deer hunting and one day i will make it up there
to slay one of those big brutes.

especially southeastern ohio. a few counties have a 3 deer limit in shotgun season. no long gun hunting tho, bows and shotguns only. and we have some active rangers, ive had dudes get busted for poaching...

Guernsey & Muskingum Counties (these counties are number 1 in deer kills quite often.) I live and own property right on the border of these 2 counties.
