Linking automatically in comment text

[Nomicron Administrator]

Some of you may have noticed the notation using braces like {Rule 101}
being used to refer to rules--this is a feature of the nomicron web
application--when this text is viewed through the web site, it will be
automatically converted to a link to the specified rule. This can be
text in comments and even rules themselves. The same applies to
drafts, proposals, and RFJ cases:

{Rule 101}
{Draft 2}
{Proposal 301}
{Case 6001}

At this time, specific draft and rule version specifications are not
supported (e.g., {Draft 2.2}), but I plan to add it... right now, the
latest version is always displayed if you leave the version number
off. Also note that just including a link like http://nomicron.org
will also show as a link and will include both a regular link with the
text and a small button-like link next to it to open into a new window
(or tab depending on your browser configuration). In prior rounds, to
achieve this effect, you needed to construct your own <a> tag.

Can we include this as a Static page for defining a "how to play" for
future players who happen to come on board?

Sorry but where do you announce you want to join ?.

Right here on this list is the place... welcome! What would you like
to use as your player name? I'll set up a login to the game web site
after you let me know. You will become a player at the beginning of
next turn (next Monday at 22:00 CDT).
