Hello this is my first post here.
I did try to read the stickies but it was uniformative even if well intentioned.
I want to run a PBEM game. I have a program called Birmail that can create the web pages and automatically email players their turn results.
What I want to know is: What do I really need to get this done?
Of course I need it to be free. This is just a game after all.
I don't know the difference btw/ ftp (file transfer protocall?) and mySQL and I am not sure what features I will need to do this.
I can tell you that there will be some maps and I will need message boards/forums for players to interact also.
Here is a link to someone elses game on Geocities, but I was hoping to avoid the ads.

I am thinking either Lord Dragon or Host Ultra
Idon't know, what do you think?
