This thread is to create a one-stop location for finding servers which host Dominions 3 games. If you want to run a game then you can run it on your own machine, or these servers might be able to run it for you. There is a thread which has suggestions on how to best start and run a game even if it is being hosted on someone elses server which you can read here...
How to Run a Game (http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=39629)
======================================
LlamaBeasts Server: LlamaServer.net
This is a PbEM server (Play by EMail) which has a "Create Game" link making it very easy for people to create their own online game for multiplayers.
LlamaServer.net (http://LlamaServer.net)
The Frequently Asked Questions file for the site can be found here.. LlamaServer FAQ (http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=35160)
======================================
Gandalf's Server: Dom3Minions.com
This is a TCP/IP server (direct connect) which mass-creates many games and leaves them available for signup. Special games can be hosted on request.
Check for open games here..
Dom3 Demo Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/demo_chk.cgi)
Blitz Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/blitz_chk.cgi)
CBM mod Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/cbm_chk.cgi)
Players vs AI Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/vsAI_chk.cgi)
Chaos Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/Chaos_chk.cgi)
<a href="http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/srand_chk.cgi">SemiRandom Games</a>
Mid-Sized Games (http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/mids_chk.cgi)
======================================
IRC (Internet Relay Chat)
There is also a Dominions chat room on GameSurge.net
Server: irc.gamesurge.net
channel: #dominions
port: 6667
You can go there and request a game. Setting one up is very fast, and the game play can go very fast. Its a great alternative to games which process only once a day. Diplomacy is also instant using the chat rooms. Or you can always just go to the Dominions room and ask questions in order to get a few very fast answers.
Here is a discussion including some tips in its use...

Here is an excellent effort at coming up with Rules of Conduct for multiplayer games.

People starting a game might want to refer to this and say "these shall apply".
