Boy Wittlich, for someone who does not host a pittboss game you sure complain alot!
Give it a try and see how easy it is to keep it up 24/7.
Bottom line is that gamespy is garbage. We as hosts try to do our best to keep the game up and running.

in fact - Wittlich is hosting a game - Apolyton Gathering.
And once you get to know him - you know that he is not overly serious about it.![]()
That being said, I full agree that keeping a game up on gamespy is a bit of work. Was thinking of switching it over to direct IP, and take one variable out of the equation.

Game back up. 1040 bc. 22 plus hours to go.![]()
Again - sorry for the interruption folks.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.

I was not too serious about my response either.
I realize it can get frustrating, having to play the same turn over, the game not being up, etc...
All i know is that i try to do my best.

Yep - that is all we can ask of each other.![]()

Nope. Do tell.
That's from the movie The Rock by the way. I hadn't seen it in a while and caught the tail end of it yesterday.![]()

Love it.
Restarting the game. Looks like a GS crash.

Game back up. 12 hrs left in the turn. Civ stats connected.
The save (1000bc) shows only Witt and I as having played. The rest of you are damned slackers.![]()

Game not showing on Gamespy.

Ok this one was my fault - or to be more precise, Eleanor's. She just informed me that when she went to turn the computer on this morning (I turn the monitor off at nights) the PC rebooted.
Would have got to it sooner, but we were picking up our newest family member today. He is Thomas, a one-year (or so) black long-haired cat from the Ontario SPCA. Lovely cat - going through the household initiation with the other 3 cats, and Wyatt the dog.
No pictures yet. Soon. He is a beauty.
Ok - now to the game.

Was able to load from provi's recovery save - which means provi - you need to play again. Also Ephack and Pinchak also yet to play. 6 and half hours left.

Could you please reset the timer next time?
I was sleeping and with only 6 ½ hours to play my turn I had no way doing it.
Thus I lost one turn of worker movements, MM changes and ect.![]()

LOL... I atribute roughly 25% of my pittboss games shut downs to the "wife factor".Ok this one was my fault - or to be more precise, Eleanor's.

Hello guys!
I'm so sorry, but I don't have internet at home since one week... And the word service still needs some improvement in Mexico...
I have no idea when I will be able to play again, but I definitively hope it will be soon!!
Thanks for your comprehension and hopefully see you soon!

I can't access the game.![]()

Never mind. I tried for a third time and finally was able to access and play.
I blame Beta!![]()
