Hey everyone-

We are hosting a play by e-mail game of SE4 gold using a custom mod at http://www.riotnerd.net.

Unlike the standard play by web, once the game starts each player is e-mailed a player file. You process your turn, then e-mail it back to the server. The server autoprocesses everyone's turn, then repeats the cycle. We are using custom scripts written by Riotnerd, and have been testing it now over the Last month with great success.

Register at the site (totally free).. there's an SE4 forum and downloads section. You can download our new Riotmod which I've been working on for the Last few weeks. We are hoping to start a game by early next week, so the sooner you can join the better. Just go to the Forums section to read about it. Contact Riotnerd@hotmail.com if you want to join the game and send him your empire file, or Dominictus@yahoo.com for specific questions about the mod.

Thanks!

Dominictus

Yeah, it no work. It is due to the extra "." at the end of ".com"

Simple for someone to backspace off if going to the link. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I'm not seeing how this is different than standard PBW using the email option..?
