USURPER NEEDS TO BE PUT ON FACEBOOK
It may sound selfish of me to say this so bluntly but I grew up with Usurper and this would revitalize its popularity (and plus, I need a new placec to play it thats always around!). There is an application on Facebook called pets, which reminds me of usurper to a small extent, Usurper is a MUCH MUCH betetr game full of life, detail, and most importantly blood, sweat and tears from all the years. Usurper needs to be revived and needs recognition. I think Usurper would be one of the most popular applications on facebook, and if there was multiple servers it would be even better. I would do this daunting task but alas, I have no experience and wouldnt have the slightest clue on how do begin doing this. Im just putting this idea out there. If anyone else has suggestions or ideas feel free to drop them by.
Thanks
Steve

being a very old foogy, aye hath not heard of thys before, but then there is much aye hath not heard of.
aye dydst look at wikipedia regarding the site, http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook
and also went to thee main site. http://www.facebook.com
I'm not sure if games as such is part of their system. Thoughh aye dydst only spend about 5 minutes there.
Not being an educator(professional, anyway) nor a student (of anything besides life), aye suspect aye wuldst be like an armadillo lost on the freeway.
Wouldn say impossible, as it probably wuld be possible if allowed by them.
Usurper is already available on dozens of tenetable BBS's that already provide access to the game, 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. From what I have seen though, very few have more than a couple of active players.
Prehaps others here might some ideas on this.

Yes Facebook has a new feature that allows applications on its site. I think there is only a certain list of companies that are allowed to. So I think we may need a certain amount of permission or someone would have to contact the facebook team and see what the necessary steps that we'd have to take to get usurper on facebook. The BBS days have died and I think Usurper as a Facebook application is a really good idea. I just wish I had even a little bit of programming knowledge to make Usurper into a Facebook app.
