This server runs the past-popular decks world, usually with no flags. Shots are often set at 1,3, or 5 depending on my mood, but occasionally run at 10. For the next few months, it is on a university connection and can handle many players at once. As far as "terms and conditions," that too...

The first versioning system that I know of was AT&T's SCCS, which came out in 1975

preferred development platform? *falls out of chair*

There are a few reasons for this:
(1) The entry bar that Chestal spoke of
(2) the STL is optimized per-platform - something we cannot do
(3) the STL provides a lot more functionality than AList/BzfString did - things like the simplicity of converting internal strings to unicode.
(4) To be happy

I suggest you make these changes to the latest CVS. AList has all been replaced with std::vector, so it should make things easier.
