I think, as you've found, that according to Illwinter turns from 2.12, 2.13, and 2.14 are essentially compatible, apart from battle replays.

Reverend,

I've been trying to connect to the server to get in a Last-minute turn submission, and it seesm to be down. Could you check it for me when you've a chance, and give me a couple of hours to get my turn in once it's restarted?

Thanks

Mark

Server appears to be running fine. Anyone else having difficulties connecting now?

The Server seems to be down again...or at least I am unable to connect...

Update: ReverendZombie experiences some problems and is already working on it...

Hi folks.

Thanks to everyone for their understanding and patience as expressed above.

I seem to have overloaded myself with games, but done it in such a gradual way that I didn't notice until I went abroad on holiday. The holiday was very nice, but I found when I came to settle up that I'd run up an internet access bill that was bigger than my bar bill in trying to keep up with my games. The rhythm I'd got into pre-holiday was completely disrupted, and I missed a large number of deadlines in different games during the week after I came back.

I've now, mostly, got my game schedule re-organised and running again. So sorry to everyone for delaying things. I plan to be submitting turns on-time from now on.

P.S. I really doubt I'll be able to "seriously damage" Caelum at this point. Aggravate and annoy, maybe. Attack him now or you're all doomed!

Whilst thou ever shut up, thee thiny undead vampire wurm that writhes in the dust between the cracks of my ever stomping boots?

...and "serious" is kind of relative: Sure the temples you burn down every other round are not that much of a harm; the fully equipped High Seraphs and Seraphines you destroyed can be recruited and trained again; the fully equipped AirQueen you mercilessly slaughtered may be summoned and equipped again; sure none of these do permanent damage - but never ever underestimate the huge moral loss I myself am constantly suffering for not catching this evil ethereal wind-ride-resisting blood-sucking vampire wench of yours! You suck me dry alive! Considering the magical might I command, what a shame to live with is this?!

---

Nevertheless am I happy that you are back and that you did not suffer a stale turn, for that would only even magnify my shame.

Furthermore I am pretty busy myself and happy for any delay not being my own fault.

Now I go back home and do my turn...

(Honestly: I really appreciate that both you, Mark the Merciful, and Kel are not abandoning this game at this point!)

Ah! I was not aware of that. I've searched the forum and all I found was a post were it was recommended to patch only after hosting and that turns had to be reloaded, which made me fear. However that post was pretty old...

As for connection: Not so long ago I could connect just fine (server displayed 3 hours to hosting). Alas, I cant try now as I am at work now...

If the server is up and running, then something is really odd: As I have written, I couldnt connect with my laptop two weeks ago, but could do so with my desktop. I tried the next turn with my laptop and everything was fine again, although I did not alter anything on either machine...
