FYI I originally loaded riverlands, then crown 1, then crown 2 without deleting crown 1. When I tried to load this Countdown game the game crashed every time I tried to start turn 1.

I then deleted the old crown maps and loaded the latest (crown 4). Game works fine.

I'm on a Mac, but at least on my rig I needed the latest map.

I do have an emergency question though. How do I communicate with other players when I run into them? Is each message sent with my turn orders?

This was not specified as a no diplomacy game.

So you can either send messages here, via pm, or you can use the in game messaging.

What do you mean is everything ok? Did I do something incorrectly?

I submitted my .2h file over 8 hours ago to the Noobheim address....

I have now replied to the "turns@llamaserver.net" e-mail with the same turn file, though I doubt that it is possible for an automated process to know which game said turn file would go with........

If there is another less obvious procedure, you must carefully provide instructions for doing it it the OP. You can't just assume everyone has knowledge of arcane processes.

Apparently it does respond to replies...

There are no instructions that I could find either in the emails or on the llamaserver site for doing this, and this, being my first MP game, I wouldn't really know that by default especially since it had been declared that a particular e-mail address was to be used in the OP.

it is the @llamaserver email you need to send it to, the 2h file that is.

Since the game server we are using doesn't seem to need any information in the e-mail in order to parse out which file goes to which game, I assume the relevant information can be found within the 2h file itself.

Oh, you guys fixed Riverlands for this game? I would've probably actually bothered to do it myself if I had known there was this good use for it. Kudos to you, since I wasn't very motivated to do anything for it myself since I absolutely detest the borders around the wrap as they were made by the quickest and fastest ghetto style and look rather ugly in most cases, and fixing phantom provinces is a huge job especially in a huge map like this.
