Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I tried to use tpserver-py it was
essentially a toy:
- It had a strange command line tool to start games which needed to be
handled with great care
- To generate a turn I had to run a program manually.
Once it gets to a point that demoN can be the main server it's a
different case.
If the above two problems are resolved I'd say it's usuable. Rulesets
are a different matter.

For now, hard coding is fine.

This needs to be done after there is a protocol to create games - a
lobby idea or something really.

Read my email again. I mention two parts which should be moved.
Everyone else ignored them.
