A little clarification, are you hosting or is it PBEM? if it's PBEM can you elaborate a little how it works or point me somewhere? I'll gloss over the Multiplayer FAQ but I haven'd had the most time lately.

i'll give more detailed instructions later, but basically, everyone sends me their god. then, i send email you all with turn 1. then you play your turn, and email me back with your turn file. then i send you turn 2 and repeat. i'll give more detailed instructions with the file extentions (.2h, .trn, etc) closer to the date. i'm just a little busy today and tomorrow.

O and I'd just like to say, connecting to a server is a lot easier than PBEM.

PBEM - Open e-mail, Download attatchment, play turn, open e-mail, send attatchment.

Server - If your only playing on network game: Hit network, play turn, hit end turn.
If your playing more than one: Hit network, enter IP, enter Port, Play turn.

Server>>>PBEM

Ok, i will say this again, there will be a vote between all members of the game once the 10th has been selected and sorry OG_Gleep but the last slot will be kept open for someone who wasnt in The Winnowing untill sunday. If sunday comes and the slot is still free you will have first turn down on it.

i would also prefer tcp/ip, but who can host it? i didn't think anyone could. if someone can, all votes for tcp/ip. i didn't think that was what we were voting for....
