Be aware that it will take many months to create the group; it's not just a simple matter of issuing a command. After the mudslinging fest involved with the comp.sys.atari.st.tech vote, I think anyone who would volunteer to be the vote taker is certifiably insane. But, if someone _really_ wants to try, that individual should be SURE to read the "How to Create a Newsgroup" document which is periodically posted to news.announce.newusers. (Is that where it goes? Someone correct me if I'm mistaken about that.) I'm not sure there's really enough game-oriented discussion here to warrant a new group. Remember that you'll need to get a 2/3 majority and at least 100 more "YES" votes than " NO" (oops, I mean "NO" :}) votes for the group to be created. Dave Baggett dmb%wam.umd.edu@uunet.uu.net
