Thoughts on me hosting a Web-Based Game

[Malice]

Hey all.

Most of you know I dabble in a little hosting just out of the love of it.

Would any of you play a web based game if I put one up on my site?
I did one awhile back, and a few people played.

I was looking at putting one of the following games up:
NetRisk
Screenshots
Risk is a great game. Although this has graphics...Could cost me more not sure.

This is ALL text...

There are more, but I was curious, if I put up some sort of web based-turn based game of war, or galactic empire building, would any of you play?

I used to love RISK, but I just don't have time for yet another online diversion. Nice idea, though.

The wonderful part of these games, is that they are played over a period of DAYS...a few minutes a day...taht is all

 

[Dew k. Mosi]

Is this like what you did before?

 

[Malice]

somewhat...that was a few years ago and there are new games out there that I just noticed..may do it anyways..just curious was all.

I like this. I would participate.

 

[Green Lantern]

I'd be down for it

 

[Holly Goodhead]

Quit stealing our thunder.

Something like NetRisk would be cool.

I also like games like Civilization, so an empire building game would be okay too.

I only have net access M-F during work hours though, and I wouldn't want to hold up a game on the weekend. If that wouldn't be a problem, I'd love to participate.

 

[Malice]

Well each game would be different...

Matt started a thread like this at 11:18am.

 

[StorminNorman]

I would be intrested.

I used to play Runescape for hours on end for months on end, then got bored and came here. I think I burned myself out on long games that take a while to play. If you had a quick card game, or majhong, or tetris or somn, I would be there.

 

[The Last Meatbag]

Yeah, I'd try it out, as long as it's free dammit

 

[Tsunulia]

Free and friendly to dial up. Then I'm there.

 

[Malice]

trying to install them both, getting some errors

 

[JewishHobbit]

Well, until my internet is turned back on, I'm only online when at my mom's house every few days, but if I'm able, I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. Send me a link or something if you get it up and I'll see if I have time to stop by. I personally love Risk, so that'd be the draw for me.

I'm currently playing this one... http://ogame.org/

If it's something similar to this... I'm in...

 

[Malice]

Anyone willing to play a game of RISK?
I create a game here....as a temp measure until I get it running on my site...
http://phprisk.org/netrisk/index.php?page=gamebrowser

 

[Malice]

I create one call SHH Risk and Newbies Wanted!

 

[JewishHobbit]

Dang, if I had time I would, but I'm at my mom's right now and will be leaving soon. Maybe another time, man.

 

[imdaly]

The second one sounds cool, but I'm not so sure I'd be willing to try the first one...sounds too RISKy...



...too RISKy....



...cause...y'know...the game's call "RISK"....


...IT'S A PUN!...


....




Anyway, now that I've got that out of my system. I'd love to participate on, yes, RISK. How does this work though? Is it 1-on-1 with game saves to allow it to span over a few days?

 

[Malice]

very punny

 

[Childlike Wild]

I'll join, but does it matter which room I join? I know basically what Risk is... but I've never played before.
