I like the chat room idea… for tips or something. And then you could have another one for games, that would have the dice roller in it. So it’d be similar to e-mail games, except it’s in real time.
I also wouldn’t object to a little better layout for the site. Maybe having all the information in a frame or something. Or maybe having a table format… by that I mean, having the logo in the top left, then the current loaded page to the right of that. That, total, would maybe be two inches. Then under the picture, you have all the different links, all organized with headers and such, and in the main section, you have the actual page. (For a visual aspect look at yofartnut.com… no, not trying to spam, just an example.)
And, I’m sorry, but I cannot stand the message board font. It’s so huge! You’ll notice I use html to get mine smaller.
As for the reference map, just make it 8X11… the size of a piece of paper, no one could play on it, but it’d be there for reference, and could print out in one shot.
I spose that’s all… I’m new to the forums, but I’ll try to be more active, so my suggestions seem more legit.
