2204 passed to Provost Pong

Hey all I have applided the 2000/ xp patch been haveing problems and wanted to take care of the problems on transcend level thought I should let you all know, will drop out if you all don't want to apply the patch (I would recommend it though)

FonnParr
September 23, 2003, 03:35
That's ok i've been running smac/x on win2k for a while with no compatability problems.

I hadn't realised there was an issue with patched to non-patched PBEM

Anyway - 2104 sent to dacole

DilithiumDad
September 23, 2003, 09:14
I think the XP patch is still considered SMAC 4.0, so we should be OK!

Blut0
September 23, 2003, 11:59
I've run the 2K patch for some time with no complaints from anyone. Has anyone else heard of patched vs. non-patched problems?

Blut0

Hey dd just play 2109 don't feel like going backward in time unless everyone else wants to!

DilithiumDad
October 16, 2003, 18:46
No, backwards is bad. Stop playing the previous turn, which is a year behind if anyone still has it! Does this make sense? Only Parr should be amking a move right now!!

FonnParr
October 17, 2003, 07:14

Hello, Blut0 here. I played the turn, sent it to DD and now I can't find it on my computer. So I replayed the turn and am sending it off to DD.

Sorry for any delay.

FonnParr

DilithiumDad can you send my turns to dacole for the next two weeks please - I will send him my password

I'll be back playing on January 5th

Blut0
December 23, 2003, 03:44
Well as for myself, I'll be on vacation the first week of January so I think we can all expect some slowdown over the next few weeks.

Personally, I don't think this will be too much of a slowdown and should be expected.

Blut0

dacole
December 24, 2003, 16:11
I agree should be expected is christmas after all! Hope everyone has a great christmas! God bless!

Blut0
December 31, 2003, 03:03

Blut0 6 for Diedre
Miriam Abstain.

Turn to DD

dacole
March 12, 2004, 15:14
Crud who gave her my commlink and why?? Was trying to hold this off (sigh) oh well here goes!

FonnParr
March 15, 2004, 11:14
What happens if there is a tie?

Anyway it was 16-12 to Morgan when I gave the turn to dacole with 4 votes.

dacole
March 15, 2004, 12:08
How did morgan get twelve and dedire get 16 just from your turn...oh wait DD played, hmm so you gave four votes to dedire and he gave eight to morgan...interesting, is that what happened?

Dcole

FonnParr
March 15, 2004, 12:14
Please read the post again

16-12 TO Morgan

it was 12-12 I gave Morgan 4

dacole
March 17, 2004, 15:39
ah not a problem sorry for misunderstanding. Turn played and sent on general question, thinker means we get two citizens before any become unhappy correct?

Dacole sat in his chair silently fumming...haveing taken over when santiago died soon after landing he had never seen the plans they had worked on together go this far astray. The govenorship wasn't supposed to be decided until thirty years from now!! How did the peacekeeprs get my factions commlink? Further more how did the hive get it?? Surley the university faction didn't give it to the hive?? Though the hive must have gone through with their threat to give it to the peacekeeprs they must be punished for that...

At least morgan won rather than that tree hugging dedrie, how had she prospered so well here? Had she learned something about the mindworms that he had not? Dacole shivered as he thought of Diedre with a good army or even worse and army of worms at her command. Morgan is a fool compared to her, he will stay busy with his bussiness and not be a bother. Thankfully he won, but the election wasn't supposed to happen until our population had tripeled...dacole continued to fume silently his aids haveing vacated the building much earlier as soon as news of the election broke. How did blut0 have the audacity to call an election surely he didn't think he would win!

FonnParr
March 26, 2004, 08:58
2131 to dacole

dacole
April 7, 2004, 15:38
turn played and sent to blut yes yes I am not dead (though felt like I was for the last two weeks man the flu stinks!)

dacole
April 25, 2004, 21:25
Hey blut did you recieve my turn? Haven't heard anything for a bit don't want to loose this game!!

Blut0
April 28, 2004, 00:29
Yes, I played the turn, and remember sending it out, but perhaps it was all a mindworm inspired dream. Sorry for the delay, haven't been able to get myself to look at a computer for a few days after putting in 12+ hours at work.

Turn sent to DD,
Blut0

dacole
May 25, 2004, 19:15
hmm guess this game is dead now....Anyone want to start it again same factions and rules? Let me know!!

FonnParr
May 26, 2004, 06:56
ok with me

DilithiumDad
May 26, 2004, 09:54
Can't we just get a replacement for for Blut0?

FonnParr
May 26, 2004, 09:56
Does anyone know his password?

Blut0
May 26, 2004, 13:20
I've sent out the this turn twice already.
The last turn I received was 2132 on 4/19.
If this isn't the latest turn, I never received it.

Blut0

DilithiumDad
May 27, 2004, 09:21
I played 2133 and sent it on May the 6 to FonnParr.

I have attached it here.

dacole
May 31, 2004, 15:08
hey emailed this to fonn par but thought would post here for everyone when you send a turn to me do so at dcole78@hotmail.com, outlook is not a good place to send turns now. Fonn parr please resend the turn to this address haven't seen it there yet. Thanks!

Daniel

FonnParr
June 1, 2004, 03:25
Sorry, I sent the turn last week, I will try that address.

Done - you should be seeing it soon

dacole
June 1, 2004, 13:54
Thanks sorry it took me so long to notice...!

Blut0
June 8, 2004, 14:30
I got an e-mail from dacole, but this is all I got:

FILE QUARANTINED
----------------

The email virus scanner at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical
Center removed acpt4 blut 2133.zip since it was found to contain a
potentially malicious file. (FILE FILTER= *.zip file filter).

For security reasons, this file was quarantined. You may request the
release of the original attachment by contacting the Help Desk (6-HELP).
They will examine and release the file if it is determined not to be a
virus threat."

Please either post the file here or resend the file unzipped.

Blut0

Blut0
June 9, 2004, 15:26
File came through fine unzipped.
2134 sent to DD.

FonnParr
June 22, 2004, 08:01
2134 sent to dacole

Blut0
June 22, 2004, 16:49
2135 sent to Herc.

Hercules
June 23, 2004, 21:27
Ok I got the turn.

I joined a number of games recently, almost all have names like HcF 2X3 or FGHH that I had to track this one down.

And if Dacole makes it back soon He can have the game back. Standard offer from me to players who get lost from time to time.

Hercules
June 24, 2004, 07:44
Correction I got a turn. It was actually DD's turn 2135.

Bluto doesn't send to Dacole/Hercules. It is Fonnparr.

I need the next turn from FonnParr. It is probably 2136.

Hercules
June 24, 2004, 07:47
Also where do I get the password.?

FonnParr
June 24, 2004, 09:06
Hold on - I'm lost

Did somebody drop out without telling me?

Blut0 - why did you send the turn to Hercules?

Hercules
June 24, 2004, 10:43
Come to think of it how did I get here.

Anyhow I have emailed Dacole.

Blut0
June 25, 2004, 14:43
Wow did I screw that one up or what?
No, I haven't dropped out of the game, just sent it to the wrong person!
My apologies!

The file resent to the correct player this time. 2135 to DD.

(Walking away slowly looking down at shoes)
