Go to http://goodsects.gotdns.com/PlayerFinder it is intended to assist in locating local players. Currently it is set up for US players. I don't know if it will work for other countries but you can try. It only has a few players on it at the moment but the more who register the better it will get.

Just registered. So far nothing shows up for me. Thanks for the link though, this looks very useful especially if a lot of people register.

Not bad not bad. Needs a real domain name/branding/graphical UI and it'll top off the coding. ;D

Otherwise pretty good start so far.

This is actually pretty neat. Out of curiosity, you hosting this at home, or do you have real hosting for it? It's fairly responsive for being at a DDNS site.

Is this just for GW gamers or any/other game systems?

Some of us move around quite often for school and the like. I'd feel guilty signing up three or so times for different locations.

I think it should be account-based where rather than anyone adding a user, you can edit your own information.

This is a TERRIFIC idea and I hope it takes off. However, the interface is pretty clunky and it gave me an error when I searched by zip code. Plus, how does it search since you just free text?

Another user on the Battletech website set it up. I put the link here to help garner more interest and increase the database. His name is Bad_Syntax on that site. Sorry I can't give any technical info on it. You could message him there if you have an account. As far as I know it is set up for all systems.
