    Hi there,
    :
    I have started frequenting this forum only recently, having played only one PBM game. So I apologize beforehand if my post has been hashed before


    I was looking for a post/faq/thread that lists all active (and completed ) PBMs. Is there one? And if not, are there plans to have one done?

    What I would ideally like to see is a stickified post at the top of the forum that lists all active PBMs and where they are in the game.

    For example (using fictional player and PBM names):

    Active PBM : English Glory
    England/VI 2.01/Early/Hard/GA mode started by Master Khan
    Alfred I (1088-1110) by Master Khan
    John II (1111-1135) by soloman
    Alfred II (1135-?) currently in play by dr. evil

    next players on list are: braveheart, iceman, maverick. New players welcome.

    Active PBM : Spanish Conquest
    Spain/MTW 1.1/Early/Normal/Conquest mode started by game_addict
    Alfonso VI (1088-1100) by jinan
    Alfonso VII(1101-1130) by zoro
    Sancho I (1130-1170) by soloman (writeup pending)
    Garc I (1171-?) currently in play by game_addict

    next on list are: (This is a first come, first serve PBM).
    .
    .
    .
    Completed PBM: The Kings of Poland
    Wladyslaw I (1089-1120) by marcopolo
    Stanislas III (1121-1180) by Master Khan
    etc....

    Ideally, the King's name would link to the write up of that king (if not possible to link to a particular post, have the PBM name link to the thread).

    The purpose of this table of contents is :
    1. Help those of us with intermittent free time to quickly catch up on which threads have updated (just checking the last post date does not work because most of the time the last post is a comment/question etc.. and not a writeup).

    2. To show which factions are under-represented in the PBMs. (BTW, has there ever been a French PBM? they seem very unpopular).

    3. Help new players (like myself) spot potential PBMs they can join.


    What do you all think?

    Sounds like a good idea.

    The list can always be edited to keep it up to date.

    In addition to this, I'd like to see some PBMs summarized. I don't really like to scroll through seven pages of comments to search for the write-ups of a PBM.

    I plan to summarize the English PBM that started last month...

    BTW, good idea, afrit.

    thanks for providing a list. Based on your list, I went back and made a table of the players to get an idea on the different threads. I gotta say, you are a de facto moderator
