Hi folks,

tommorow is the official start of the contest. We have allready some ideas how some parts of the game could be working out and I think that this is a good thing. Of course, a lot of the aspects are not dicussed but till the end of October, things shoud be carved in stone. I mean the general direction and the feature set.
