<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.
I like your SNOOPY POSTER! - While you Wait quote. -
Snoopy,
I have two windows open associated with PB.
One is DOS commands.
One is the pitboss manager.
Do i need these both open for the game to be avaliable to everyone?Comment

The game can be monitored at CivStats.com
Quick way to see if the next turn has started.Comment

Snoopy, i answered the above question to you myself, and during this test pitboss went down.
When i loaded it back, it was the autosave start, hense, you will have to make your first turn again.
I now know to hit "save game" before exiting the manager. Boy i love learning by trial and error!

Nuke Boy, could you please remove my email address from your post. I wouldn't want this address get caught by spam spiders and load me with spam.Originally posted by Nuke Boy
Perhaps Keygen can help. I'm playing another PBEM game (Ride On) that he set up. His email address is [deleted]. My recollection is he is busier than usual this week, but he generally has time to help
Thanks

What do I do to play a turn?
Quick and dirty on hooking up to the pitboss game:
1. Connect to Gamespy through the "Multiplayer" -> "Internet" menus in Civ4. I'll host it there, because it's easier and I'm lazy. IF you don't have a Civ4 Gamespy password/login, get one (it's different from regular Gamespy).
2. Find the game in the list. Whatever it's called, scroll down and find it.
3. Double click on it. (Or single click and hit join game in lower right)
4. Play your turn!!
5. Do the end turn thing (enter or hit the end turn circle)
6. Do this every time a turn happens!Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.Comment

Snoop - I've been thinking that for the new warlods demo game, and for future pitboss games being set up, we may want to put together a small "how to" guide for both hosters and players.Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.Comment

I am trying to get in at 9:15 am est, and I don't see the game on the list. 'Lord of Emperors' is there, so the big system is working OK.Originally posted by pinchak
