The PBM Wiki proceeds slowly, although in actuality, a bit faster than I had thought that it would. The whole reason that I set it up, initially, was to use the wiki format as a display mechanism for the PBM Boneyard list. I have a feeling, though, that the PBM Wiki is already beginning to morph into something larger - something much, much larger.
Oh, we're not there, yet. Hell, at the rate that I seem to free up time to work on things PBM related, it may never get done. But, that aside, I do think that it is a play by mail gaming project that has enormous potential. It will also fit right in, I believe, with PlayByMail.Net's objective of being a facilitator for PBM gaming.
Tony (site user Nazareth) was nice enough to send me a list of PBM games and PBM companies to add to the PBM Boneyard list. This info will get worked into the PBM Wiki site, in due time, also.
I am debating with myself what the front page of the PBM Wiki site should look like. I really haven't got a clue, right now. I think that I am just going to play things by ear, and let that site's look evolve, as I add more and more information to it.
Mark Wardell, the Mad Scientist of PBM, was originally intending to create some kind of PBM related wiki, as I recall off the top of my head, but I don't know when - or even if - that project is likely to see the light of day. Mark seems distracted with real life issues, the last long while, now. In the meantime, while I didn't really intend to create a PBM related wiki website, previously, suggestions by others to put the PBM Boneyard list into wiki format has spurred me to action, and now, here we are.
