Hi Merlin,

The core database portion isn’t too complicated to get setup, it’s a sqitch project. There are a couple Perl scripts that run continuously in a screen session as well. 

The web interfaces are a little dated and need some fiddling to get operational. This tends to be the most complicated part to get running lately. 

I would happily help either by answering questions, or by directly working on the system. I could also spend some time getting it all working smoothly via docker if a container was preferred. 

Thanks for your interest!

Sure.  FYI: look familiar?  https://github.com/merlinm/rpgame

It should -- it was loosely inspired from your effort.   This was the output of a SQL training class I was giving to non technical folks at a prior gig.

You may or may not recall I was the one abusing advisory locks so no one could play the game but me :-).  Your project is an important part of postgres history IMO.  I have some hosting through gcp; I'll set something up.  Out of town until late next week but I'll circle back then.
