015 The Sea SnipersŪ 10th Anniversary / Historical Item 5: The Tactical Whiteboard

In 2003 we worked with our friend Chenzo (http://chenzorama.com) to create the Tactical Whiteboard. This was a flash-based, web-based drawing app that let you load up our maps and draw your tactics on it.

You could drop icons, draw lines freehand or straight, type text messages and more, then when you were finished, you could save it and send it to your clan mates who could then watch it play back like a movie exactly how you drew it.

This was super handy for us clans competing in matches. We had actually charged $5 a year for the TWB and made a few hundred bucks in beer money off of it (thank you fans!) but we just didn't have the time to update it.

Here's the link to the only working version of it, the demo...

In February 2003, we were written up in Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine as a "Must hit Website". I think this was our first "press".

Proof!


Lots of peeps got lots of use out of this app and we haven't forgotten about it over the years, its just life and family that have been delaying a new release on possibly on a new platform/s.

Hopefully we become able to work on the next version soon and you'll be able to use it anywhere. Thanks to everyone for their support over the years, we couldn't have pounded all those beers without you!

And the recruit sig of the day is...










I'm gonna ask you questions, and every time you don't give me answers, I'm gonna cut something off. And I promise you...
they will be things you will miss!
