Title

I'm sending out invitiations to interested parties. I'll try to discuss the game a bit more tonight, and figure out how this "blogging" thing works. Hopefully I can allow you guys to post freely. Feel free to invite people you think would be able to contribute to the GGE. Gamers, idea-men, outdoorsmen, so forth. If you think they would just enjoy playing, let's hold off until the game is closer to finished.

Now, this is an important aspect of the Greatest Game Ever: people who play games to WIN AT ALL COSTS are not welcome! Everyone likes to win, but this is about fun. The nature of the game makes it very easy to cheat. Even worse, such a large playing area, unsupervised, means that the threat of injury is very serious. A broken bone or concussion on a rugby field can be treated by medics or the player rushed to the hospital. Miles out in the wilderness, we're pretty much on our own. Anyone thought likely to flaunt the rules of safety and fair play will not be invited to the game. And yes, the Greatest Game Ever is by invitation only.
