Arghh! I downloaded the game to my brother's user on the computer. It ignored my turn orders because of that!

You do know you need a separate copy for each player to play MP?
I would not mind starting over if you are really screwed (not just cos I have slightly the wrong pretender & no password!)

I think the game does not allow two instances of the same CD key in a single game. I have had this identical problem trying to play a game against my son at home over our local net (i.e, using a single CD key). It certainly didn't work. We eventually got it to work on the basic game directly out of the package by using a bogus CD key we found on the net. However, they fixed that bogus CD bug in one of the subsequent patches so it will simply not work anymore at all to have multiple CD keys in the same game (other than hot seat mode).

I have been wondering if it was going to work in this game. Now, I am guessing it will not. Most likely, one of you will have to become computer controlled. Or go out and buy a second copy of the game.

Well, maybe I can do my own math. It looks like the server is 4 hours ahead of the U.S. Eastern Time Zone, and if the game started 7:30 am (according to the server's clock), then turns will end at 3:30 a.m. (which works out well for me).

Tell me if my math is wrong.

Thanks.
