2137 turned. You'll get an error message. I'm sure I played & passed on this turn- maybe not.

Have you guys read the thread "Attention all PBEM players" (or something like that) on here, there is a new bug that affects out game.

Hobbes, I can't locate the thread you referred to. Can you provide a link? Or describe the bug? Thanks!

The thread is headed: All PBEM'ers Please Read

The bug is that in this game, not all of us are playing on the same level. One of us is likely to be on transcend, the rest on librarian or some such variation.

I am on transcend in this game. The easiest way to check is via the SE screen, try & change & see how much it costs: 40 for transcend & 24 for thinker (I think?).

Tau Ceti has all the details if you can't find the appropriate thread.

Oh & turn turned! Much celebrating at Hobbit HQ following the successful completion of the HG Project. Carousing, feasting & much reggae music.

Well, according to the opening game entry we are playing at thinker level. When I tried to change SE it said 24 ec required, and I think librarian is less then that from a early SP game(8 ec). I really don't know though because I haven't played the different levels much at all. Also are MP and scenerio costs the same anyway?

2139 off to Hobbes.

I also am charged 24 credits for an SE change. BUMMER!

So, do we ask for a re-start? I hate to waste the time, but I can't see a way this is fair otherwise.

I suggest that since this is a tourney game that we restart. The quicker we decide, the quicker Tau Ceti can get us under way again.

I'm the same as the University. When I tried to change my SE, 24 credit charge.

If we are not all playing at the same level, then I concur with the restart. Bummer though! I was having a good game.

[Hobbes_One]

I have informed Tau Ceti of our desire for a restart in this game.

Hobbes

[Tau Ceti]

Restarted and sent to Hobbes. Sorry about all the problems.

[Hobbes_One]

Restart turn turned.

[stuntman19]

Ok, I've had some PC problems the last couple days, has this restarted? Am I still in? as I haven't received anything, and originally I received from Hobbes.

If I'm still in this one I'll need a resend please.
I'll e-mail Hobbes to get the skinny, sorry for the delay.

[stuntman19]

Well, I guess Hobbes doesn't receive the text of my e-mails for some reason, and all I got was attitude back, no info. I was hoping for some info on the restart...what level and confirmation were all on it before we waste another 3 months of turn play. Consider me out of this one.

[Tau Ceti]

Umm. I restarted it with all players, of course, and on the original difficulty level, Thinker. I have checked that it works this time. What exactly is the problem here? If you just have not received emails from Hobbes, that is probably not for game-related reasons? Why is it you want to drop out?
