Beyond the Pit [Pitboss Diplomacy Game] [Organization Thread]
@Persia: maybe your password change has in some disturbing way also changed the admin password (bug?). Can you pm or e-mail me your new password so that I can try that for an admin password
@America: no, there was no admin password. I tried reloading 6 turns ago and it didn't require an admin password. I didn't set one to avoid losing it in the future. (who remembers a password after 7 months of not using it?)
5 turns ago: not working
6 turns ago: working
I'm not at work right now. I'll load the game as soon as I'm home within about 6 hours from now. I assume that all 'reload it' sayers agree with the 6h/turn (first turn 12h) for these 6 turns. You have about 6 hours to change that

I've updated the first post with voting information:
Voting
Every 1st day of the month we will start voting for the best players in 3 categories during the last month.
We vote in 3 categories:
1. story telling
2. diplomacy
3. military strategy
We send in a top-3 list for every category.
Story telling is about submitting interesting stories to the story thread in any format.
Diplomacy is about being able to reach your goals through diplomacy in any way.
Military strategy is about making very tactical strategical moves and decisions. (make sure you post evidence about this in the story thread!)
NB: this category isn't meant only for the war-winners. Someone can lose a war because he's a weaker player, but made some brilliant moves. In this thread we can award him for that. The game-scorelist will reward players for winning wars.
Every player is free to pick 3 players in every category. No more! Less (or none) is possible if you can't choose. It would be cool if you could include reasons for the vote.
Rules for voting:
1. send them in before the end of the month!
2. votes send in after the end of the month do not count
3. players who didn't vote in a specific month will not gain vote-points for that specific month
4. voting happens through the anonymous mail address
5. votes stay unknown till the end of the game (to avoid political votes)
6. votes are being send to vote@diplo.plomp.eu or votes@diplo.plomp.eu
7. The mail subject includes "votes round x"
8. You can't vote for yourself.
9. The vote-mailbox that receives all votes will remain closed till the game has been finished. Then we will all receive the password and be able to read/count the votes and read the comments.
The #1 in each category earn 3 points, #2 earns 2 points, #3 earns 1 point.
This will result in 4 scorelists (3 above mentioned categories + the gamescore list)
All players will receive points for their position in all of these 4 lists. 18 points for the #1's, 17 points for the #2's, ...... 1 point for the #18's
The sum of these points tells us who won this game.
Conclusion, the winner is determined by:
25% gamescore
25% story telling
25% diplomacy
25% military strategy
-----------------------------------
I'm sure that we can debate into eternity about these voting rules. My question is: are there really important matters that multiple people disagree with? If not, then I suggest we just take this. It's not perfect, but I think it's quite simple and covers all aspects of a diplogame.
At first it wanted an admin password but then I capitalised the file extension: CivBeyondSwordSave
and it worked as a normal game load... does that help?
Did you open the save in pitboss?
I am able to open the save in mp as well, but I can't change the password, so that next time I launch a save made from mp it still requires the admin password.....

On the Mac at the moment but surely if you can open it in MP there is a way to get a save from it for pitboss?
