Anyone had a crack at Godville? It's a fun little text "ZPG" - zero player game. You set up a little hero and then just set them running, and they do everything for you. They'll even carry on doing so if you abandon them and never return. You can influence them in small ways using "godpower" that they give you by praying...

It's pretty funny really, lots of tongue in cheek humour, much of which is user-submitted (you can submit and rate others' ideas on pretty much any aspect of the game):

You can find it on iphone/ipod touch for free, or at the godvillegame.com website. Once you're in, you can "invite" me to become your friend - XiaoLiang. Although there doesn't seem to be any benefit to either person, other than being able to IM each other ingame...

At long last, my suspicions are confirmed -- Halen is an elaborate spambot.

His English is not nearly bad enough to be a spambot. We all know you can't be one if you get basic grammar right.

I was so dissapointed when I noticed that I misread Godville for Godzilla.

I know two people who are going to get lots and lots of spam from webcrawling spambots! PM the man.

Oops, I thought Michael wanted an invite. Now I only have 1 invite left - really I should save it for mizike, since he asked first. I started another character, so I should have more invites soon!
