Recently a lot of improvements were done on Richard's server. PBeM developers are working hard to 'helping reduce world productivity'
- First of all it's a convenient graphics interface. Now it is not only email server. Though you can still play using emails or SMS.
- Various options for time controls (--totaltime, --nagtime, --forfeittime).
- Implementation of Ninuki. It is a very old and complicated variation of Pente. See rules at: http://www.gamerz.net/pbmserv/ninuki.html Advanced pente players may always challenge 'myamamoto', 'sensei', 'seeker', 'basplund', 'mmammel' or other users on PBeM. These japanese masters are ready to kick your *** .
Not experienced players can play usual Pente, G-Pente, D-Pente, Pente+-. There are many variations of pente there.
Well, specially for those persons who don't like to think hard there are many 'intellectual' games like WarShip and TOW
Good luck!
