According to this article it’s possible to play via e-mail… which of course means it’s possible to play it via a forum  8-)

I especially like this suggested game:

WW1 or WW2 campaign

Possibly set in 1914 in the west or east (corps level units), or a WW2 eastern front battle (division level units).  We could have teams of players, with a hierarchy, as only one set of orders would be submitted, thus minimising the umpire workload.  Teams could organise as they wished, but typically players might take roles, such as C in C, intelligence chief, operations chief etc.  They could communicate with each other all the time on plans, analysis etc. without disturbing the umpire’s deliberations.  They would not control the individual combat units directly, but rather act as the command staff of an army or army group.  The would specify attacks, divisions to be involved, date and objectives.  Combat could be resolved by the umpire using a commercial boardgame on the battle, or a PC game such as The Operational Art of War.

Absolutely.  A person that is given some liberties regarding how they spend their time at work will usually perform better in the long run than somebody that is forced to “work” for the duration.  Granted, this is the case for salaried professionals more so than for menial, minimum wage hourly jobs where the worker is much more replaceable.  A professional that you need to put significant resources into to make them an important, contributing member of the organization should be allowed some freedom in this regard.  If their job is high-stress, they will just get burned out quicker if the stress isn’t relived in some manner.

@dezrtfish:

I wonder how long I could pull that one off, I wouldn’t mind being glued to my bed for a day or two…

With the right company?  :evil:

Glue… handcuffs… whatever.  Who needs school?  With the right teacher I’m sure there’s plenty that can be learned attached to one’s bedrails. :-o

62% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

bit funny to me.

I was born in VA but left before I learned to talk.  Florida and CA for my elementary years.  VA and CA for high school.

When I wander down south I find myself using the local lingo in about 72 hours.  Otherwise I tend more toward a midwest dialect.

I’ve discovered that it also depends on the browser you’re using. I really don’t like the font that IE tends to use but Netscape has a nice legible times new roman type font.

exactly, cover everything with infantry to season…
