I wanted to run a few thoughts I had on an expansion for the forum. Understand that any of these thoughts will probably not happen until 2004.
Basically, the idea is to add on a game module. There would be a map of the 7 Celtic Nations (plus England). Members could join one of the nations and this would be reflected in their profile as their home nation. Realtime stats on each nation would be available. Lots of historical stuff and background info. Picture graphically pleasing celtic'ish map showing the celtic nations. As you move your mouse, the nation underneath would highlight. If you clicked on the nation you would be brought to that particular nations home page with member stats, chat and discussions.
Once a member nation has enough members, there could be an election held to name the ruler of that country. Other positions could be appointed by the ruler or elected by the general population.
This might be a turned base game, with some real-time aspects generated by the computer. It will meld with the current form, but be separate enough so that if a member chooses not to participate, then it is simple as not opting in for the game.
The real fun would be the interaction between the different countries, custom graphics to your profile, access to private areas of the members country and anything else that comes to mind! The goal would be to generate interaction between members and be a cooperative type game.
Any thoughts?

Mania points are now 721, so it does appear to be calculating properly.
Dave, not sure if because you are the only level 32 is there is some logic error. Give it a shot and see if your mania points come down. Here is the code if anyone is interested or if you think there is an error somewhere in it, let me know:
| CODE |
/* Determine MP
*
* MP is calculated by how long the user has been around
* and how often they post.
*
* Max MP is based on level, and increases with level
* Each post a user makes costs them mp,
* and a user regenerates mp proportional to how
* many days they have been registered
*
*/
//Number of days the user has been at the forums.
$user_days = max(1, round( ( time() - $poster['joined'] ) / 86400 ));
/* The mp cost for one post.
* Raising this value will generally decrease the current
* mp for most posters.
* This may be set to a decimal value (eg, 2, 2.1, 3.141596)
* This should NOT be set to 0
*/
$post_mp_cost = 1.5;
/* This determines how much mp a user regenerates per day
* Raising this value will generally increase the current
* mp for most posters.
* This may be set to a decimal value (eg, 3, 3.5, 2.71828)
* This should NOT be set to 0
*/
$mp_regen_per_day = 2;
if($level < 1)
{
$mp = '0 / 0';
$mp_percent = 0;
}
else
{
$max_mp = floor( (pow( $level, (1/4) ) ) * (pow( 10, pow( $level+2, (1/3) ) ) ) / (pi()) );
$mp_cost = $poster['posts'] * $post_mp_cost;
$mp_regen = max(1, $user_days * $mp_regen_per_day);
$cur_mp = floor($max_mp - $mp_cost + $mp_regen);
$cur_mp = max(0, $cur_mp);
$cur_mp = min($max_mp, $cur_mp);
$mp = $cur_mp . ' / ' . $max_mp;
$mp_percent = floor($cur_mp / $max_mp * 100 );
}
