I was thinking of using this http://realpolitik.sourceforge.net/JavaDip/index.html to keep the map uptodate. Although Java doesn't work at work so I'm not entirely sure it's absolutely useful but hey ho. The alternative is using xfig to update a map like this and then export it as a gif. http://thegestalt.org/simon/void-dip-g00-2003-10-16.gif Persoanlly I think it looks like ass and I'd prefer a much more normal looking map and to change the colour of an entire territory. There's a powerpoint there that I might be able to edit when I have a powerpointable computer. Anyway ... If people are interested I can randomly assign countries to everybody and then we can start playing. I often play the first round open just to get people in to the swing of things and then moved to close negotiations. I'd suggest that we give each round a day (although we could make it half a day and of course, ebing humans, we're flexible). People mail their moves to me and then when they're all in I write a mail explining the resolutions and asking where people wish to move to. On a related note currently the list is set to munge the replyto address. I can turn that off and then turn it on again individually for the people who want it (behold the awesome power of Siesta).
