acka-duels Digest Friday, November 20 1998 Volume 03 : Issue 278 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1998 00:34:39 -0800 (PST) From: JT Subject: Acka: postal Code This is the new postal code. The main changes are that it says that these lists are the new public fora. I also tried to clean up some of the previous confusion around acka-research. If people feel the new wording is really broken, or what have you, please let me know and I'll revert it to the wording that breadbox had previously which, while I feel was slightly broken, has at least some history :) This message also serves to confirm that this list is operational. I am sending it to all of the current lists, so if you are subscribed to more than one (most of you are) you will recieve this once for each list. --JT ---------------------------------- The Postal Code _________________________________________________________________ All addresses below which end in @ should be treated as having "ackanomic.org" appended to them. ackanomic@ is the official mailing list. It is an unrestricted public forum [but if a message would be more appropriate on a different mailing list, players are encouraged to use that one instead]. acka-voting@ is the official voting mailing list. It is a public forum meant for game actions involving proposals. [Thus the Promoter and Tabulator would send most of the messages on this list, but it is also appropriate for other voting player actions (such as retracting a proposal).] acka-research@ is a public forum meant for discussion only. Messages sent to this list may not contain any player actions, game actions, or attempt on the part of a player to alter the game state within their text. [In short, no one *needs* to be subscribed to this list.] acka-chess@ is a public forum only to be used for game actions in Party Chess. acka-games@ is a public forum meant for game actions involving other subgames. [For example: Grab-a-Donkey, the Machine That Goes *ping*, and anything in the Games & Contests Rule Suite.] IRC servers are legal fora in lieu of acka-games@ provided the server in question is specified, and used as described in the rules. acka-duels@ is a public forum meant for game actions in the course of duels between players. IRC servers are legal fora in lieu of acka-duels@ provided the serverin question is specified and used ad described in the rules. acka-priv@ is an alternate form of ackanomic@. acka-games-priv@ is an alternate form of acka-games@. acka-duels-priv@ is an alternate form of acka-duels@. [These are used for public messages needing a private reply.] [-------------------------------------------------------------------------] [ Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty. ] [ It's hard to seize the day when you must first grapple with the morning ] [-------------------------------------------------------------------------] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1998 08:41:24 +0000 (GMT) From: The Karaoke Kid Subject: Re: Acka: postal Code On receiving this list, I get a pain in all the diodes down my left side. I feel the urge to stick my head in a bucket of water. Life. Don't talk to me about life.

I have discovered a truly remarkable proof of this, but it won't fit into my sig file. ---------------------------------------------------- On Fri, 20 Nov 1998, JT wrote: > This is the new postal code.
