It's been almost 4 years since my last update and probably just as long since I last touched webpage development.
During that time though, I have worked on and off on the "Disc Master's Domain - Online Gaming Service". Last night I finally got off my butt and spent 3 or 4 hours installing a new game (2 actually) and
upgrading one to it's professionsl version (DoorMUD). While on most systems setting up a game (door in BBS circles) is usually easy and requires little time, here at the DMD it is quite complex. First,
we have to get the game functioning properly, then have a program run that converts the high score files to html files which are then automatically uploaded to this website every 5 minutes or so. After
that I have to dig up my old webpage design software and add the new game(s) to the High Scores page of this website, then configure it properly to display the scores in the popup window. Once that is all
done, we STILL have lots to do. We then have to create a page for the new game(s) for our "Game Listing" page here on the website and write a summary of the game. Following that, we return to the system-side
and have to create the internal high score displays. All of this is very time consuming and a simple 10-30 min setup for a new game to be on the system, can turn into 1-2 hours or more, per new game added.
As you can see, it is a very time consuming task, but one I will not shy away from. In todays digital age, systems such as "The Disc Master's Domain - Online Gaming Service" are trailing edge technology. If
you want to remain relevent and keep having users visit and play your games, you have to do more than the competition. Hence, that is why I put all this effort into this system, site and service. Sadly, it can also be that
effort that makes me step away for long periods of time. Alas, the system is very close to going live. I only have to fix a few menu screens, finish up some help screens and then testing can begin with the
going live date shortly following.
Please note, I truly do plan to continue working on this system and I hope to make a going live announcement shortly. Lets hope thats not 4 years from now as it was when I last posted on this site in 2007. :(

This service is in beta testing. There is still lots to do, but the major features are done and users can enjoy the online games that the service has to offer.
As we go through testing, we will tweak some areas, add new features and more games. If you would like to help beta test this service, please go to the
Access the Service page and apply for access there. During testing the services provided will be FREE. The only thing we will ask of our users is to report any problems, issues or
ideas they may have regarding our service. Upon completion of the BETA testing phase we will go LIVE at which point we continue to offer our service for....FREE! :) Yes that is right!
Access to The Disc Master's Domain will always be FREE, although if any of our users wish to donate to the system, it would be greatly appreciated. Any donations would go to enhancing
