Does that mean I wouldn't be able to patch my game at all? Is it possible to have 3.25 on your PC, but still run 3.24 for some of your games?

@ Earwick: I have my dominions in a folder called 'dominions 3.14' and plan to patch into a folder called 'dominions 3.15'. thats fine for the game, if you have the disk space for it. I'd be up for patching over this game, but if it bugged out it would be tragic.

@ Korwin: I don't think he was a terribly skilled player TBH. no idea what he had planned.

Excellent... never even considered that.

However, wouldn't the beta team catch a saved games bug? Or has stuff like that gotten through in the past?

Llamabeast is recommending that everyone just go ahead and patch the game, as he says it is extremely difficult to keep a game going otherwise, as one of the players will inevitably patche their version. However, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea for everyone to make a backup of their trn and 2h files before submitting their last unpatched turn.

What is the process of how we should go about doing this?

I checked the server this morning, and there was a message from llamabeast saying that he had accidentally patched the servers with the beta patch. If I recall correctly, since none of us have a patched version, he said there might be some downtime... obviously, the message isn't there anymore, so don't quote me.

Yeah I saw that, but why would not even a day of downtime roll it back nearly a week? Any chance we could set it for sunday evening/monday morning rather than waiting that long. Or has the server set it permanently to be wednesday until everything is taken care of?
