  • [PBEM] Slaughter House 5

    Please post turn sent notifications here.

    Here is the turn order. I have also included what Civs were picked for those who chose Random, and their time zone. Hopefully the turn order is good, I tried to make it sort of go around the world with time...

    aebbeka Greece CST
    g_storrow Random (Arabia) GMT
    Dubhghlas Random (England) EST
    Grandpa Random (Japan) EST
    Corossol India/Ghandi EST

    Please go ahead and change your name in the game, if you wish. (hit ALT-D) AND MAKE SURE TO SET A PASSWORD!

    All settings are default, except the world size is large, type is continents. Oh, and there's 3 AI players, on Noble difficulty.

    Let the games begin!

    The first turn has been sent to Arabia, via the in-game SMTP "thingy."

      1 person played in 30 hours? Not a good sign...

        54 hours now... I'm assuming it's still stuck on Dubhghlas, so I guess if nothing by tomorrow night, we'll have to replace him.

              Um, I've sent an email out. As you now know, I didn't get any move from player 2.

              You know, if you are waiting on something, you might try emailing somewhat earlier than 54 hours after the start of the game to see what is up. If Corossol hadn't emailed, I'd still be out of the loop (I don't always get a chance to check in here).

              Just a thought...

                or another thought

                if you have committed to a game play

                check up in the game thread in case since email often fails

                trust me

                I been involved in over 50 pbems

                all sorts of things happens

                  gstorrow posted that he sent the turn, so I never considered that you might not have gotten it. Was it filtered as junk mail or something? Hopefully a resend will work.

                      or yo can do it the easy way

                      when the turn opens up press (ALT + D ) and input your email address and also the settings for the outgoing email like smtp-server.abc.rfw.com or whatever it is for you (you can find this in the properties of your email account under servers)

                      then after that it will prompt you on next screen to input the email of the next player

                      if you have forgotten their email..simply press (ALT + TAB) which will downsize your game and look in the email for it or go to the apolyton site to get a copy of it

                      Ok

                      Hope this helps

                          the saved file was actually named 40003

                          odd why it would have a 3 on the end

                          i tried renaming it to 4000 buyt still no luck on loading

                              ok
                              it works from multiplayer by manually loading
                              verry odd

                              all other games load by auto

                              very strange

                              anyhooo
                              on to corossol
