Discussion, mostly technical, about running Phoenyx groups goes here. Hypotheticals and wishlists go in stakeholders.

Game profile page

There is a mockup game profile page at


As with the member profile, it's subject to change, discussion, 
whatever. The parts farther down, where the "what goes here" 
description text is still in there (you'll know what I mean when you 
see it) is actually one generation older; I have a more generalized 
one somewhere that applies to PBIRC/PBW as well as PBEM, so 
don't worry about those.

This is subtly different from the "group" profile.  Group profiles apply 
to all groups, including the chat groups.  Game profiles apply to all 
games, including non-Phoenyx games; this will replace the 
Openings list.  Group profiles cover things like number of 
posts/members/etc, game profiles cover things like system, 
character

One thing I want to put on there, that isn't there yet, is some quick 
"rating" systems... not specifically quality ratings (those will 
probably be there too, along with a more detailed "feedback" option 
where people can express their opinions, sort of a guestbook 
thing), but something more along the lines of "Where does your 
game fall, if 1 is 'Over-the-top humor' and 5 is 'Depressing angst.'  
Stuff so the potential players can take a first cut at deciding 
whether they're interested or not.

So the question is, what are the important factors to rate?  And 
what items, on that page, should be non-optional?  The first four 
(five, for Phoenyx games, because that'll be autocreated) are, 
probably, but after that?
