Encountering Log In problems? OCoN!? | Friday, December 29, 2000

Please be aware that we are currently working to resolve this problem, but until then we ask that you give us your patience. Thank you.

ProBall season 2 Defender | Friday, December 29, 2000

Due to popular demand Proball season 2 will start. Currently league is accepting signups here.
Proball is miniature version of SSCX Powerball which is 4on4 matches unlike 8on8 for normal Powerball. Smaller player requirement helps Non-Powerball players to feel the waters of
season play without the hassles of stringent player requirement and highly competitive league where newer squads has difficulty keeping up.

For players who have been overwhelmed by Powerball, next season's plans should ease the pain of rookie squad season considerably. Powerball will split into two division to group squads in even playing field. And also, the added division proves popularity of Powerball is increasing. New Powerball season is expected to start late February.
EGL Server Change OCoN!? | Friday, December 29, 2000

From Staene over at EG website...

Due to circumstances beyond our control, Extreme Games League has moved to a new server (meaning you will have to RE-ADD it to your server list!) we are now called SSCC Extreme Games League.

Here's how you readd it to your server list:



Open SubSpace

Click the "Find Servers" button

Select "sscentral.vie.co.uk" or "sscentral.ds98.com" as your directory server

Click "Download List"

Select SSCC Extreme Games League from the menu on the left, and click the Add -> button

Interactive SS Story OCoN!? | Friday, December 29, 2000

Hey guys, whats up man GET TO POSTIN MAN, where are you guys! Hehe anyways hope you guys had a wonderfull holiday, and are looking forward to the NEW YEAR! I just got this email from ThaKiller, an EG player and he asked me to inform this to all of the SS community =)

This is an interactive SubSpace story, the first chapter is given and you ALWAYS have 2 choices about what to do next after each chapter. When you arrive at a point where nobody submitted a chapter before you can write your own chapter and thus continue this INTERACTIVE story on your own!

This is pretty much a test run which will last until end of January, I really hope many players submit chapters to the storyline. At the end of this test I will post the most active thread (with the most chapters) AND the most creative thread on a seperated website....

I am also searching for somebody who can write the first chapter NEW. My english is very basic as you can see and I am sure anybody can imagine something which makes more players feel "involved" in the story than my current first chapter.

I appreciate every chapter added!

Due to the holidays there will not be an AOW event this Friday. But starting the 5th of Janurary AOW will be going through some major changes. I will be adding a staff to AOW, the games will be more planned and thought out and we will even have a website. Please all be on the lookout for that.
USD Annhilation News Rude Awakening | Wednesday, December 27, 2000

Got this from Gemini Dream Sysop of USD:

First off, I would like to wish you all a Happy Holiday Season and all my best Wishes go out to you and your families.
At this time , I would like to thank all the staff in USD Annihilation for all the hard work they have done over the last few years.
We have had alot of changes since I took over as sysop and we have had good and bad times. But we have survived the test of time and
we are about to embark on the next step to growth.

Over the past while I have see a decline in usage of USD Annihilation and have been lost as to how to re-build the zone. Then I decided
to call an old friend and old USD sysop ....MikeyDee. After extencive telephone conversations across North America, we have come to
some decisions.


1. USD Annihilation is going to have two sysops

Mikeydee and Gemini Dream as partners .

2. USD Annihilation is going to move to the old servers in california ( MikeyDee's ) for more stability.

3. The staff will stay the same and we will weed out the people that dont play anymore and take them
off staff. No new staff are being added !!!

4. We will be leaving the SSC billing server and setting up our own and all CanLink and SSnet zones will be on it also. This will
probably be a bigger server network than SSC !!!

5. We will be setting up our own web page and a web page for all hosted zones

6. There will be sub arenas in usd for the settings we have used for the past and the main arena will be the original USD arena
with Jackpot and KOTH added.

And lastly and for-most, I would like to thank all the players in USD Annihilation.....without you, there would be no need
for a SubSpace zone called USD Annihilation ...Thank You !!!

If anyone has any questions about this move please feel free to contact myself at mikpel@sympatico.ca
News Flash:For DSB Xalos | Tuesday, December 26, 2000

K first of all I would like to say I'm sorry about all those who read the "hate massi" report. It was a report to show power which was gonna be removed :)

If you haven't signed up for league YOU BETTER HURRY! Go to www.deathstarbattle.com/league/ to sign up. Do not make multiple entrys and if you have a squad tell your cap to invite you.

The southern wall is still not fixed. What does this tell you about loops and others words? Anyways I can't complain cause keep in mind all servers are player run and loops is doing a EXCELLENT job keeping this running so DON'T COMPLAIN!

DSB Robocop Problems. Xalos | Thursday, December 21, 2000

DSB made a new addition a little while ago called robocops. These cops monitored the arenas and made everyone legal automatically. Well after the map change and wipe they were removed. Rumors had it that OP's were not doing enough so they decided to remove them. Some even heard that they were never meant to be there. With all these rumors in mind I asked Zvuv! about it and he said "They were purposly put there :) and there are not gone just down for the moment." So for all DSBers that were worried about illegals again be relieved because loops says robocops might be up sometime soon probabbly today! =)

-Xalos

P.S. New rule addition- Making a name that sounds like Robocop- # will get you banned. This rule is similar to that of imitating OP's.

United League progresses... TopGun97 | Thursday, December 21, 2000

Another big post on the United League Website.
They are showing to the public how far they are at this moment developing the new league format aka structure of the pyramids. They have finished with the playoff format for next season and are now working on the regular season. They will hopefully discover every little bug that could cause a problem during the season.
Also did the staff make an important announcement concerning the squadnames and players aliases:

The Staff has gotten together, and decided that we are going to request from all squads, that the alias' and Squad name they choose be appropriate and not sexist and or racial in any way. With this in mind, we must request that the "squadcaptains" inform all of their squad mates of this, and have them change there alias' (if it's sexual or racial) before the season begins. Failure to do so may result in your squads removal from this league. This would be a unfortunate event, and something we do not wish to do, but will if needed.

The United League Staff


So there you have it. United League wants subspace to be a "game" fun for all.

Also a lot of new staff members have been hired. You can see who does what on the United League Moderator page.

More news to be announced soon...But till then the United League Staff wishes everybody a Merry Christmas and a happy new SubSpace year!!!

subgame1.34.8 BoKi | Thursday, December 21, 2000

News from "Mine GO BOOM" over at www.shanky.com/server, (new subgame8 is out):

When the next billing recycle (aka scorereset) happens, squadowners will get a new kick-ass command thats been suggested many times before. ?squadlist shows all people on your squad. Only a squad owner can use this command. Very good combo with ?squadkick :)

Also, some other filler news since this deals with servers (somewhat): ?listban will have a new max limit of how far back it could look (was 100, but has been known to lag subgame-billing connection, new limit so far unknown, but probably 50 or 25).

Another useless tidbit, specs watching a player will see that player's team's decoys on radar (and their name color) correctly as if they were on that freq. No more specing someone and seeing blue decoys fly out of them.

DSB X-mas style but with some bugs. Xalos | Wednesday, December 20, 2000

Recently after the wipe on wednesday the DSB staff decided to get into the holiday spirit. They added a new map which is filled with snow and christmas hats. Most players liked it but few relized that the southern wall blocking you from flying over www.deathstarbattle.com is now passable. Loops(the boss) admits it was an error on the DSB staff but does not know who to blame, either way it will be fixed. The only problem with the map in Flagship's words "This map makes my instinct to kill turn into one to hug the other guy."

World War 3 Scof | Wednesday, December 20, 2000

In the christmas spirit..and with most people having the week off and lots of time to play subspace..I've come up with an idea. I will be running an event that will start on tuesday of next week called World War 3. It's an event that a squad, a single person or a group of people can participate in. There is 3 prizes: 1 for first, second and third place. The prizes, I promise are very awesome. What this will consist of is a huge jackpot, awesome "mini map" made just for the event, random prizing every 5 minutes and other little goodies. The "prizing" will be the supplies for your ships..because after fighting off a bunch of invaders from the other team or teams an extra repel or portal could save the day. The goal of this event is to gather the most points and best rec. Why? Because the goal in any war is to kill as many of the enemy as possible while losing the fewest men..and the points will help you to be able to afford to buy items to defend your base. And, this event isn't just a one night thing. There will be another World War each week afterwards with more awesome prizes each time. This promises to be one of the biggest, most in depth events of all time! So don't miss out..gather your squad, your friends..or even just come by yourself and challenge the power of the world at SSN 1stStrike!

Powerball > General Info 2dragons | Tuesday, December 19, 2000

Main public is now back to the same old PowerBall of three weeks ago, except there are 25% less repels, there are very rare bursts (that are not full power), and scoring is win by 3.

Everything else is the same as usual (including repels - which are back to normal strength.)

Also, the last round of PBCup 2kE2 will be held next Friday, the 22nd.
Is your lag a problem? Questioning Silence | Tuesday, December 19, 2000

Suggested by DuckDuck to lower your lag, click here to download a program called CCTask to change the priority of subspace. To do this you must

1) Start subspace and minimize it by pressing Alt+Tab
2) Open CCTask and select subspace.bin
3) Change priority to Real

Doing so will increase the smoothness of your game.

Thanks for the help DuckDuck (:
My last updates for 17th Parallel Questioning Silence | Tuesday, December 19, 2000

Here are a few updates before I transfer my attention away from the 17th Parallel towards SSCX SCF West. I would like to continue posting for 17th, but I do not get much updates from them.

Fujin Frost and RifleMan have created a map called "Flagship" which is a CTF-style game which has rules such as
1) 5 players per team
2) players start at each side of the field, none start in the middle.
3) unlimited lives/unrestricted ships
4) game ends when one team has captured all the flags, no time or hold limit, just instant win.

The 17th Parallel website is ready to go online, but the server is experiencing problems, so it won`t be up as soon as expected.

The record of 37 players in the zone at once was broken on a Wednesday, I am afraid I do not know the new record.

Players from the US and parts of Europe have been kicked out of 17th
Parallel lately because of an unstable router not far away from the
server, a complaint has been sent in to the router administrators about 9 months ago.

Stealth and cloak has been removed from the ?go javwar and 17thelim arena, so all ships are allowed to be played.

And last but certainly not least, players really love Lev elim.

Another New Subspace Site On Horizon hedcase1 | Monday, December 18, 2000

With the recent surges in the population lately, it is a given that there would be new Subspace sites and eager players anxious to help contribute to keeping Subspace alive.

That being said, an old veteran, BlackHoleSun has undertaken several new projects to help contribute to the longevity of Subspace. Included in his list are a FLASH only site Subspace news site and a FLASH conversion of Subspace (yes that means you can play Subspace in your browser...but most likely not against other players :).

Also, in the next few weeks, expect to see this site upgraded with some flash objects and a whole mirror site totally built with flash as well.

However, he needs a little help. If you have any images, movie clips, subspace art, anything related, please email him it at: lee@papadocs.com. He needs a few things to help build the Flash version and with the Flash site.
New Feature! Download Central! hedcase1 | Monday, December 18, 2000

Yes folks, that's right. Formely located at http://subspace.has.it, Downloads Central has nearly everything you have ever needed in terms of Subspace files and utilities. The creator of the site, BoKi has also joined the SS.NET Crew. BoKi and another new addition to the staff, Rowen7, have been working hard on building this site.

I got this from 1stStrike a couple of hours ago:

"This weekend I've brain stormed up a nifty event. It's called 1stHockey (map made by Cray Z Virus) and it'll be in the ?go events arena as usual. The map isn't filled with huge bases, but just the opposite. There are 2 goals which are easy to get access to..but here's where the interesting part will come in. I'll give you a sample. The levi is going to be the goalie. Each team will be allowed 1 goalie. It will be able to move very fast and have great manuverability but it will have strictly defense things like a portal, mines, and a weak repel in case of a mass barage of bombs :P I will be working on everything throughout the week and I hope to see you all in SSN 1stStrike on saturday night at 10 pm EST."

TWL Crome | Monday, December 18, 2000

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages. The Trench Wars League is finally over. The reigning champions, Elusive, played an awesome match against Siege. With all predictions leading to Siege's victory Elusive, today, was the underdog. Siege came out strong but ofcourse, as all of the matches with Siege and Elusive, it becme tied down in the middle. In the last match-up Elusive came up strong towards the end to gain the win. This time, though, Siege pulled hard. Siege came out the dust with their guns up and a title around their belt. Was a good match between both squads. Elusive after the match dissolved. They left a mark on TW and will be remembered. Siege came out of the rivalry winning 3 out of the 5 matches. Good Game to all.

This also marked my retirement as a leader. I am not leaving being a leader forever, but I am sure going to take a long break. Banzi is the new leader of Siege and will do a fantastic job, with a great squad. More news on TW is found at trenchwars.com, also check out the forum to hear Epinephrine's(Elusive Leader)speech.

Warzone League Deicide | Saturday, December 16, 2000

Posted by Rob at Warzone League Website

"The new WZL is coming soon - and with it alot of additions to the seasons of last. The news at present looks like this:
1) NEW STAFF REQUIRED. In the past WZL has run on a skeleton crew. We are now looking for alot more of you "WZers" to help the league run smoothly making it more enjoyable for everyone. The positions are as follows:

i) 3 "Match Co-ordinators" are required (SMOD access).

The job of the Match Co-ordinator is to ensure the general smooth running of each WZL game. Their purpose is the following:

* Know rules inside+out
* Settle in-game disputes
* Set-up, Announce games at game time
* Allocate refs to freqs and advise on any questions

The purpose of recruiting 3 (obviously only 1 per match is needed) is to make sure there are enough around to cover all games.

ii) 9 Refs Required (MOD access).

Job Spec:

* Know rules inside+out
* Sit on assigned team freq
* Answer questions from assigned team
* Assign players in event of lagout/substitution
* Check players on assigned team against roster

iii) 1 Security Officer (SMOD access)

This person (who won't be known to the public) is responsible for creating a database on all WZL players (yeah thats alot of using *info). The purpose of this is to ensure there is no double-squadding. This person will be highly trusted and anyone applying for the position must be of that nature.

NOTE: A link will shortly appear on the menu bar on the left to apply for these positions. The exisiting ref application is no longer active and should not be used.

Also, exisiting STAFF for WZ are MORE THAN WELCOME to apply for these positions. Please apply in the same manner as everyone else, but adding a note that you are currently a mod/smod.

2) MAP! New Map to be confirmed.

3) NEW ROSTER SYSTEM. Maximum 20 players (this is not negotiable). 7 Day ineligability applys.

4) RULES. These are subject to change i'm having a look at them over christmas. New will be posted when the new rules are up.

5) TEAM SIGNUP. I am concious alot of you have been using the link on the left. This, like the ref application is no longer in effect. Please wait for news for the new link to sign your squads up.

6) SETTINGS. Alot of people have wondered about the settings. I would PREFER SVS, simply cause thats what i was "brought up on". I know alot of people feel this way. However, I am concious over the last couple years the settings in the main WZ arena have veered away from this. I am therefore going to start a post on the LEAGUE BBS (not the main one!) to get some opinions. PLEASE post there which settings you prefer.

7) WHEN DOES IT START!? Sunday 7th January.

Watch this space for when the links are up to sign your squad up or apply for a staff position. Any questions, as usual drop me a mail.

- Rob"

SFSS Portal Rude Awakening | Tuesday, December 12, 2000

Got this from Pleather Panter:
I am a SYSOP in a new zone called SFSS Portal and am representing the project in this message. The project was started with aspirations of giving the regular player a chance to get his zone online. The zone consists of a main arena where directions lead people to various subzones (submitted by players). These players don't have sysop powers so their control is limited. The purpose is for everyone to have a chance getting their zone up. If a subzone gets a steady traffic, it gives the owner an incentive to find a real host/server for it. SFSS Portal also gives the owners of servers and hosts to look at zones for candidates to host. Because this project has only recently becomean actuall zone, there are currently two subzones available. This we want to change. Our webhome is sfss.org or you can email me at brian@ogaming.com or Awestrike (SYSOP) at awestrike@sfss.org Thanks for your time. If you have questions or comments please email one of us.

At www.SFSS.org there are links to get to a bb for Portal, a zone description, and zone news.

Haven't posted in quite awhile Questioning Silence | Monday, December 11, 2000

I haven't posted anything in a while, it's been a slow time for me in finding news. I still am not getting much information from the 17th parallel staff, I do not even play in that zone much anymore. I have asked Rude Awakening and we agreed that I could turn towards news from SSCX SFT West. I am now a moderator in SCF West and will be assisting Rude in his events. By the way, these events take place on Friday 9:30PM EST (AOW) and Saturday 3:00PM EST (SNS2).

I would also like to say that I am trying to get my web server up and running and plan on hosting Squad Sites and possibly my own Subspace page, I doubt it though. If you want your squad site hosted, email me at PepsiLoverSteve@hotmail.com and I will let you know all the details.

More Eg Stuff =) OCoN!? | Thursday, December 7, 2000

Hey guys, OCoN here =)

Here is the latest enws from EG over the last week, sorry it is so late, was having some connection problems, sorry for taking up SOO much space for this post, but it is my job to inform the SS Community about EG happenings. All of this has come from the Eg Website

Evaugh steps down...

Hi all,

I've been thinking about this a long time. Lately I'm very busy with my real life, I am in university, work 12 hours away on top of that, and govern a sports club on top of THAT. The few hours that I DO play SubSpace I often play for Zeta in AM League, and sometimes I attend some elims in Extreme Games.

It would be unfair for me to stay sysop of Extreme Games. I simply am not able to do enough for the zone to grant me the privilege, others are working their asses off and I think they should be given a chance.

Although I REALLY like being sysop of Extreme Games, in spite of the many many issues that it brought along, I decided to step down as sysop. I will still use my experience to help out whenever I can, and I will stay part of the staff. I don't want to miss out on that cozy bunch that is the EG staff - guys, I'm very proud of you. You have done a GREAT job lately and sometimes I am astonished how much effort and devotion goes into things.

-Evaugh


Here is the second thing, in which i would also like to congradulate the following people of superb work!

It is my pleasure to announce the following changes in the staff:



zeus - Promoted to: co-sysop

Brother Justice - Promoted to: head smod

zombie28 - Promoted to: head smod

- Staene


The last thing is EG HITS 309 PEOPLE, THIS IS A NEW RECORD! Click here to view a screenshot!

There is a few more little things but i simply dont want to take up to much space on one single post so to view it click here to check it out, thanks!
New Subspace Site??? hedcase1 | Thursday, December 7, 2000

In about 30 minutes, a brand new Subspace site, SubspaceArena will be officially opening its doors at 4:30PM EST. From what I have seen and heard, they look to be serious and it should be worth a good look at. So be sure to go on over there and book mark what is surely to be a new staple to the subspace community: SubspaceArena.Com
One of the top addicting games! Possum | Wednesday, December 6, 2000

Special Thanks to Ender^Wiggin for finding this information out :)
AOW Blurb Rude Awakening | Wednesday, December 6, 2000

EG News - Interview with Pointman hedcase1 | Wednesday, December 6, 2000

The famed vowel, einexile, has posted a really indepth interview with the Sysop of Extreme Games. It's a really interesting interview. To check it out, head on over to the minefield.

Also, I again apologize, I was supposed to post this yesterday as well, but I was super busy :/
CanLink 1stStrike News hedcase1 | Wednesday, December 6, 2000

Well I was supposed to post this yesterday for 1stStrike, but I was very busy and it slipped my mind, anyway here's some information on what he had to say about his zone:

Even though it appears that many zones were shutdown on CanLink Gemini Dream didn't shut mine down...and he had a good reason for it to. But thats not the point...I just want to keep my zone going as it was before and I hope you will all still come to the event we have planned for this saturday at 10 pm EST. It's not an AOW event but i have decided to do something interesting. Each saturday night at 10 pm EST we will be holding a new event with either modified settings of the main arena ones or totally different ones. After the event is over we will grant prizes to winners and list them in the news.txt and give them the right to say that they kicked everyone elses asses. This saturdays event is what I call 'Omega Flagging'. Now you would expect a ton of flags but it is the exact opposite...there is 1 flag with only 2 people per team. Get the flag and your ship will only be able to move at a snails pace and turning...well almost impossible. But the flag will enhance your guns and make it so that your weapons take very little energy compared to everyone elses. You will need to turret your team mate and rely on him to drive for you while you have to defend the both of you. Jackpots will be incredibly high and this promises to be an awesome event. I hope to see you all there in the ?go events arena on saturday night and remember....you can't judge a book by its cover. An event or zone may not sound good but if you come in and try it out you never know..you may have found a new favorite zone.

I recommend to head on over there to check out his zone. It's an old zone that is becoming more and more popular since he has brought it back. It has very original settings and a dedicated sysop.
Your original score will be available later Runtime_ERROR | Tuesday, December 5, 2000

I think we all have seen this say:

    This Zone is currently not keeping track of scores. Your original score will be available later. However, you are free to play in the zone until we resolve this problem



Thats what is popping up on almost all the SSC Zones, as its billing server comes to a sudden stop. According to the sources, the Billing server is down due to routing problems in good ole' New York.

Hopefully it will pop up just as fast as it went down.

Major SWZ Update HeartBreakKid | Tuesday, December 5, 2000

Tis I, Tis me, Tis the Heart Break Kid. Got some great news for you Star Warzone fans. Getting tired of those 10000 jackpot games with only 10 people? Or maybe flagging for hours with 40+ people in SWZ and the jackpot only gets up to about 200,000 points? Well, look no further. Your SWZ is changing for the better. I have yoinked this from the news.txt file from SWZ so here is what Tailchaser, sysop of Star Warzone had to say.

12-05-00 New point scoring system starting next reset! - TC

Thats right. Our scoring system is a little outdated, and is being tested today to get ready for tomorrow (Wed the 6th).

No longer will the jackpots suck ass when there are less than 20 ppl in the zone! Final jackpot scores will be roughly the same when there are 10 players or
when there are 60 players.

Starting on the next reset (Wed the 6th), average jackpots will be around 500K. If long games go on they will prolly get up to 1 Mil :)

Also, the new Star Warzone web page is almost complete, just working on a few new things for the page. I was hoping to have it done for the new scoring
system, but it looks like its going to be a few more days.


So get ready for some huge jackpot games as well as a new Star Warzone site. Tell your squaddies, tell your friends, even tell your enemies to bring themself to Star Warzone for some real, high-impact, Star-Wars themed, flagging games.
United League: Dead or Alive? TopGun97 | Tuesday, December 5, 2000

Dead or Alive? Is that the question?

No! United League is not dead. Even better..UL is more alive then ever.
Then why no news for such long time?
Answer: The Staff is working on a new format.

Next season UL will have 2 pyramids. It will be a 2 way movement pyramid system.
Best to see it as a Professional Pyramid and an Amateur Pyramid. With this format UL will have 2 champions and lots of fun tournaments in between. It will be more competitive for each squad. Battles from the beginning to the end with exciting playoffs. Battle for your spot, rank, status and even bragging right! Allstar match between the 2 pyramids. You name it. It will be there next season.
And for the squadrons that read this that want to try league play. Sign up now and you will have matches suited to your skills. For signing up for next season you can send an email to: Portal_DM

United League will be more "United".
Check out the website: www.subspace.net/united for more information how to sign up etc.

AOW Rocked Rude Awakening | Saturday, December 2, 2000

Ok this probably was the best AOW ever behind the one back in Witch Doom several months ago. The event started off shaky with only 12 people showing up. Turret wars went off slowly and it took the people a little while to catch that there was turreting going on. But as the turret wars event go farther in more people started showing up and the event was up to 21 people. Of course that didn't last to long but an average of 15 people was in the zone. Turret wars was won by Freq 0 with barely any competition. For the flagging/powerball game Freq 1818 won. Remember a special AOW event will be held tommorrow night in CanLink 1st Strike at 10pm EST in ?go events. In that event will consist of a special teamkilling game.

AOW Tonight Rude Awakening | Friday, December 1, 2000

Muahahaahahaha! I am in an extremely good mood tonight. Maybe because it's Friday. Well anyways since it is Friday, you know what that means. AOW is in SSCX SCF West at 9:30pm EST Tonight. We will have the turret wars followed by the special flagging event. For the turret there will be two equal teams and you can divide you team into turrets. As many turrets as you want with as many people. The goal is to kill as many people as you can in that turret before the 25 mins is up. Whoever racks up the most kills wins that event. For the flagging event there will be two seperate but equal teams again. The goal of the two teams is to be the team to win three flagging games first. BUT you has to have scored two powerball goals also to win. More will be explained when event comes around.
Minefield Rude Awakening | Friday, December 1, 2000

Here is the last post posted on e from the minefield:
Today was the last day of the third year in the life of the Minefield. December 1st is the page's birthday. I am tired of it. I've thought very seriously about ending the page tonight. I will not. Instead, the page will be changing dramatically beginning tomorrow. In time it might look nothing like it has in the past. This is as it should be. The roles it once filled are now filled by others, and there is much out there to do that is presently being done by no one.

At the same time, I'm planning for this in many ways to be a return to what the page was about back when it began. With luck this will be more fun for everyone concerned, and generate a more consistent output without causing me or others quite so many headaches.

My thanks to all of you who have kept coming back here through the years, especially those among you who didn't give up when the page reached the point of near total inactivity. The loyalty is much appreciated and is the reason I continue on. It is the reason Subspace continues on, and what keeps this game fun in its old age.

Cross your fingers, cause here goes nothing . . .


As you all know Einexile has been around this game for as long as anyone can remember and has been a big part of it too. A part of that has always been The Minefield. I am very pleased to see e not let this part of Subspace history die and very shortly you will see a very dramatic change in the way the Minefield is runned.
