Maky's Great Idea

[Maky]

Who here thinks that we should set up a messaging group for when were in game? Maybe even voice chat if people have got headsets.

We could set up a message server On ICQ or something similar. I've been thinking about possibilities of the ICQ program modifying the message txt file in the SH3 installation folders. Not too sure if this is possible yet but it would be good no? I spotted a mod that emulates the Enigma machine but I have run out of download allowance so cant test it yet. I don't know whether you use it in game or not.
Would be cool getting messages sent from U-whatever and it being from someone here.
It would also be nice when you finish a patrol and check U-boat aces that would be scores from everyone.
I think it could be possible if we could think of a way of synchronizing everyone to a certain date.
Then again I havn't got the fogyest how time compression would pan out.

God I will sound stupid if this is already possible, I haven't even looked at how the Multyplayer games work. I'm guessing there just single missions?

Obviously we wouldn't be able to find each other in our campaigns but I don't see it as impossible to make a small program to connect us all.

What do you guys think?
My programming skills aren't amazing and it would take me a long time to do this on my own but hey, maybe there's help out there?

Just the late night bamblings of Maky, What you think?
