NEW EA GAME - Server Is Up. Game has started.

[effeDom]

well sorry for not getting back to you yesterday, but, i had no problem with this game (technically), i played the 2 turns up til yesterday, though i was forced to miss a turn because i came up to north spain to stay with a friend and until just now we couldnt get my computer working with his internet (router problem, but just fixed it)...

so i stalled last turn but the turns before that were no problem, however I do see that ive been put on AI already so considering that is unchangable, oh well
the technical problem i was having was only with that other MP game that i was starting. thanks for investigating though as I seem to be a bit unreliable on putting in turns everyday, i think i will opt out of playing any serious MPs until i really get situated with a job and living permanently somewhere again soon hehe

i wasnt expecting to lose connectivity for the remainder of this game, because I'd still be in spain (just in bilbao, now) for the next 2 weeks or so and it looked like abysia would be dead by then anyway regardless of what i do, or even game close to a finish....

i opted out of the other game because i didnt want to start up a new one, not knowing if id have every-day connectivity about a month from now.

anyhow.
good luck the rest of you on the rest of this game, looks like its going to be over soon anyhow.

Well, I'm glad to know other games have technical problems too. =P

No problem effeDom.. was a pleasure to play with you. I would be fine with playing with you again. I just suggest you be clear you want a game with no or loose turn deadlines.

Bleh! The only option is to reset to turn prior to AIing.

I will have to bounce the server around 7pm tonight. Server will be down for approximately an hour, if all goes well.

Lightning hit. Graphics card needed to be fixed, dominions folders hosed.

Hey guys. Was working on this till 2am or so.
Dominions is up but it is unstable. Dominions will not unload. When it tries, it crashes tcp/ip stack.

search for a fix is ongoing, but at this moment at least you can enter turns.

Having trouble connecting to the server to submit my turn. Guess the 'Thunder Strikes' are being unleashed at Chris's house again :-)

Probably another stall coming up. Getting used to them now though, and they seem to be adding an 'extra randomness' to the game, which can be considered fun in some ways :-)

So how is it going with Niefel? I had a bit of a bad start with much unrest in the capitol but did manage to kick one player out so I had some room when I passed the nation over and now I'm wondering how it's going.

Hmmm I continue to learn the myriad ways to screw up hosting. Automatic updates: on.

Restarted the computer. Its back up.

On other news, I've gotten a PIII Win2000 Server box with 2000 gb of disk space, and I'm almost done setting it up.

I had hoped to finish it this morning. But I'm having problem with the SCSI array.

No news on Niefelhiem?
