Re: Attention my PBW games...
Can you at least kick Return to Hell, so the rest of us can get the next turn?  You should be able to get on PBW and log in even on 56k..though downloading the actual turn would be a non-option.

Re: Attention my PBW games...
I have experience doing that on a 28.8k modem (also was an emergency). You have to wait of course  but the turn eventually gets downloaded. The uploading is a bit faster  |

Re: Attention my PBW games...
Keep in mind that the return to hell game files are so big, PBW won't send them by email any more. Actually, we're having problems with the processing because they're so large.
The Last one was something like two megs, zipped..

Wow, how long does it take to actually load one of those things in game? |

Re: Attention my PBW games...
A long time. And I'm on a 1.4 GHz.
Don't even THINK about opening the ships window unless you really, really need to. Something about having over 3000 entries slows it down..

Re: Attention my PBW games...
Sorry... I wasn't able to kick the turn. I was going to but I cannot kick it myself. We ran into this problem with the Last turn. Geo had to do something Last turn to make the turn finally run.
If the problem persists we may have to call a winner.

Re: Attention my PBW games...
My ISP is going up and down the past couple days so internet access is limited. So I may be close to deadline on most of my turns for awhile.
