Everytime I logon to this board, I see that notice about the February closure.  The time is getting closer.  Do we know when in February?  Do we have a place to go?  I am starting to show signs of extreme anxiety.  We talked about Multiply, but is that really a good choice?

I think most here already opened a multiply account.  ,,,and I think Lorne said something once about transferrring all the posts from here to there.  There is also the option of starting a message forum at BBO.  They have many message boards and I would think they would welcome the scattered MSN crowd to their site (and it is a free forum).  I know most here would be just fine at telling an outsider to get lost if they didn't want them to post there, although we've always encouraged new posters here.

Unless Lorne knows something we don't, Multiply is a confusing site, and, IMHO, not suitable for a Forum like this one.

Does anyone remember Maurice, a former Zoner who used to be very involved with the Zone Conventions, and he ran a message board which was a lot easier to navigate than Multiply ?

If anyone knows how to reach him, ask him about that message board.

Some time ago I installed phbBB forum, which is quite good free software (BBO forum is using it). For testing purposes it was used by me and Bill.

More details at http://www.phpbb.com/ page.

I offer to install it again in some free web-space and give some persons (admins here) admin rights to manage it.

Regards, Vlastimil

hi Everyone,
 
Maggie I feel the same way all anxious about where we will keep in touch, it is so interesting and full of good opinions about the game that brought us together.
 
Have a good day everyone.

The Maurice I knew was out of Louisiana somewhere.  He played at MSN Bridge Club, but I haven't seen him since it closed.Think he owned a club in Louisiana.

Over at the BBF, you might want to reach out to Ben (inquiry is his handle). He's the board admin there, and overall great human being.

Since I actively post to both forums, if needed, I will be glad to act as a temporary liaison until we are settled.
