w00t!

The Great Flood should hit us just after midnight (server time) tonight. And then just _before_ midnight tomorrow, the game will reset.

The scores won't be visible to everyone yet - I haven't made a page for it - but assuming everything goes without a hitch, I'll code those pages tomorrow.

And if everything _is_ working nicely, I'll reveal the game to PsyPets players (and B&N employees :P)

I go now!

cool new stuff

I've added two new artifacts: the Tablets of Law and the Gold Calf.

but most importantly, the game calendar has been established. It's a 13-month calendar, where each month is 4 weeks long. Extra days make up an annual, end-of-the-year holiday that is part of no month. A single game of Towers runs for one whole month.

I've updated the FAQ with this, and other, information.

I've also coded the earthquake code, but I haven't tested it yet. It will be tested in a couple days when the Great Flood wipes us all out (the Great Flood is technically an earthquake - check the FAQ for more about that).

No, but I'll test earthquakes earlier than that, hopefully, so that I can implement generic earthquake disasters for God to toss at you.

Ooh, and I heard of a cool miracle: pulling money out of a fish's mouth. Why is the bible so crazy?

fantastinews?!

I've made a few minor changes to Towers of Babel! You may have noticed!

Is this the beginning of something bigger? Let us hope so!
