thank you for your support. It is very difficult
to get an entry in the de.* newsgroup hierarchy.
At present the vote has been interrupted because
of my web page, since it could encourage people 
to vote who might have no real interest at all
in taking part at the new newsgroup.

The vote will be repeated in a couple of days
with a more complicated personalized system
in order to ensure voters are able to work
with a newsreader and to follow the German
instructions.

So I fear further voting campaigns will
only be allowed to take place at
de.rec.spiele.brett+karten.

Regards,
Joachim
