    General NewsAn OS upgrade unfortunately took down most of the Celemp website a while back, and there just hasn't been enough free time to dedicate to resolving the issues. But the Christmas holidays presented an opportunity to get away from other commitments for a while, and the problems have been resolved.
    The underlying software has been updated to the latest versions, which brings some improvements but also probably some minor issues.
    Security should be much better, with CAPTCHAs on all submissions, so hopefully there won't be so much of a problem with spam comments (you may not have seen the problem, but your friendly admin sure did). If you had a picture associated with your login you'll probably have to reload it (sorry).
    There may be some tweaking that still needs to be done, but we're looking forward to having active forums again and implementing the changes to the game engine so we can start some more games.

    Update: I found the original images people had associated with their accounts, so you don't have to reload them.

    General NewsSeveral games have recently concluded, and as is typical, not without controversy. As is customary we will be opening a discussion of the games and how the rules might be changed to improve the experience in future events. Please join us in the forums and help us make Celestial Empire better.

    Update: We'd not only like to hear what you think should change, but how you spent the last six months! We created a new forum for discussing completed games. Stop in and share your experiences. Note: That forum will be closely watched. Any discussion of games in-progress will be removed.

    Update:Spam filtering has been added to the celemp.org email system.
