It may exist on your server, but it doesn't exist on mine, nor on
any other major server that I know of (save Google, and they're broken in
their own ways). If a group gets added to the Big-8, though, it will be
highly visible on all well-configured servers for years to come.

I'd like to hear from some other people here. Would they like a unified Sid
Meier's Civilization newsgroup?
