Introduction

This is the code to launch up a site to play quidditch with 14 players (7 on each team) and a game-master who overlooks the entire game settings. Players can chat in a chat-box and use commands to go through the game. The game ends when the snitch is caught and team with highest number of points wins. To login as a player, use id psw as written in code.
