Thanks for your replies!
I know it's a bit hard to understand the whole concept, 'cause all you see at the moment is your own tempalte avatar and few buildings. I wrote a tiny FAQ to the site but here is the concept in a nutshell:
- You register to the game with 1 or more domains.
- Every player updates the domain's DNS to link to the game = you "sell" your domains to the game and get money. You also earn money when new players join via your domain.
- When you sell your domain to another player, the other player owns that domain in the game and decides if he/she want's to continue using it in the game (the game automatically check during the login if the DNS is still working, if not, the player needs to "buy" it back from the bank).
- The domains are showing player's own content (ads for example) when players click them from inside the game (technically by checking the referrer). Players can earn money by visiting other player's sites and promote (by paying for the clicks) their own sites.
- This all would work so much better, if those domains really were transfered under the game administrator's registrant account. And when leaving the game the player gets it back. Then bying/selling could really work without a possibility to cheat etc. But it's a bit hard to demand players to transfer their domains in order to play!
Maybe this could be an extra feature with some bonuses.
I hope this helps to understand the concept. I really would like to hear some comments and ideas before I code too much to the wrong direction.
Thank you,
Olli
