not that it matters, but if i were writing this type of app, i would use Flash, ASP/PHP, and the backend of my choice.
considering the type of game your making, c/c++, vb, or java are too cumbersome to write such a simple multi-user game. i can appreciate your desire to learn a low-level language like c, but i wouldn't start learning by writing a mulit-user game complete with graphics. i can't question your motivation because i don't know you, but anyone who has been in game development for any length of time can attest to the numbers of aspiring game developers that set out to make a game and learn a new language at the same time, only to find that it's not a simple 1 month project...
granted, that is just my opinion, but flash was created for doing things just like this where cross-platform compatibillity was an issue. do what you like, but that's just my input.
