New & raw web based Dominion II game server

[Esben Mose Hansen]

Maiguel: No, it's not a glitch. The server was beginning to feel the strain, and I thought it prudent to limit it below it's maximum capacity.

Gandalf: sure; I assumed the command line list text file would be easiest to understand. The few switches not listed are, as I would expect, rather uninteresting. But I should've checked, I suppose. Not used to close-sourced software, I guess.

Zapmeister: 1. It means the game was started during the period where a programming error caused the scripts to not record the participating nations. In other words: It was a bug, and it has been fixed.

2. Yes, the game just hangs around. If I notice that no one are making moves in that game, I might post here and then kill it. But it's all manual.

3. Yes, actually. I discovered it yesterday, but havn't fixed it. Sorry.

4.Again, the scripts can only supply the command line switches to dom2. I do not believe that any other victory conditions are avialble, but perhaps it can be done with a scenario? I will be happy to add any map/scenario you want until the upload facility is in place.

Have fun!

Right, I see. It might be worth taking a look at QuickSundering and BlitzDuel. If they're defunct (it certainly looks like it) then we only have to find one more to create a free slot!

I still take a regular look at QuickSundering, though since it doesn't force-host, I'm afraid it's dead.

Also, wasn't the AllTheNations game supposed to have Quickhost on? If so, it doesn't right now; I'm wondering if the flag wasn't lost over a stop-and-relaunch (18 hours to go, with all players having taken their turn... too bad!)

As a sidenote, I'd just like to say thanks again for providing the server. In between notices about dead games, complaints about LINUX, and technical questions, I imagine it must be sort of nice to get those once and a while. The service is definitely appreciated.

apocalypse (2300) appears to have stalled or something - it's sitting with all turns complete but isn't quickhosting and doesn't display a time to next scheduled hosting.

And yes, the service is definitely appreciated

yah, toolsfools has been trying to host for over the past hour.

as well, there seems to have been some sort of quickhost reset Last night??

[archaeolept]

uh-oh. Now BigGame is trying to host...

looks like a real traffic jam.
