Traithe is on a distinguished road
Oh, incidentally, something else that I should probably mention; my main goal with the SoI website was to ensure that the game could be run by people without any clue how to update webpages without the site itself suffering any detrimental effect.

So, the staff-list on the site auto-updates, the weekly newsletter that's sent out automatically is also added to the site's public newsletter archive, staff members can add/delete/modify downloadable files in our file vault via an application in the staff portal area, etc., etc.

It's a huge burden off my shoulders, since all the time I previously spent managing the website way back when we used a static one can be spent elsewhere now - the time investment is a little steeper up front to get everything working to that degree, but it was definitely worth it.

If you have any questions or would like more specific information on how it works, feel free to drop me a PM or an email.
