Bugger, I can't remember who I sent it to! Well, I do apologise, I think that it was Hex?! -
Man, what's happening? Why is it taking so long?Comment

Hex and Gothwalk did their turns, the last I saw the game was in brians hands.Yes, let's be optimistic until we have reason to be otherwise...No, let's be pessimistic until we are forced to do otherwise...Maybe, let's be balanced until we are convinced to do otherwise. -- DrSpike, Skanky Burns, Shogun Gunner

Hi guys.
Just got an email from Brian. Seems that he is suffering much the same problems as Macchu did with fatal errors when trying to run DC PBEM.
It may be a case of another replacement or someone else playing his first turn while we try and figure out what's actually going wrong.
Sorry for the delay.Comment

Look at the readme for Dutcheeses scenario. I don't have it in front of me, but you need to replace several original files with files that Dutcheese provides with his setup. Make sure that Dutcheese's scenario is located in the Activision/Civilization-Call to Power/Scenarios folder. (I think that is the correct directory path) And make sure that you do not have any mods/altered files in the original/default game files, except for the ones replaced by Dutcheese's files. Example: There is a conflict between CDs mod 4.2 and Patch 1.2 (Scenarios such as the Apolyton Pack are OK)
Before launching the email game, lauch a new trial email game with the Dutcheese setup to see if it activates.
Hope this helpsYes, let's be optimistic until we have reason to be otherwise...No, let's be pessimistic until we are forced to do otherwise...Maybe, let's be balanced until we are convinced to do otherwise. -- DrSpike, Skanky Burns, Shogun Gunner

No offense to Psychoweasel but it he recieved the game on Novemeber 11th and today is the 17th. That's a delay of six days we should definitely open the game up to a new player.
My position is to open the game now and if Psychoweasel fails to play the game before someone signs up he's out.
The game started quite awhile ago and I havent't even got my first turn yet arrggh!!!!

Seems like a fair comment. It has been a while, and it really doesn't take that long to rectify does it?!Comment

What happened to this Game?Comment

It doesn't look like getting any joy from Brian so the only thing to get things moving, as the AI cannot cope at the start, is to kill off the Tribe. If Gothwalk will either play Brian's turn and just disband all the units and then forward the turn to Don or post it to me and I'll do it.
It's getting silly now and I think enough time has been given to try and sort out the DC setup. It's not an ideal solution but to search for another replacement will take further time so I think euthenasia is the kindest option.Comment

Jon, I'm with you all the way. We've been hanging on for ages, and I know that it's a pain in the ass, but we'll never get the game moving unless we've got players who want to play, and can play. I know that I had problems when I started PBEM but they were all easily rectified very quickly.
It has been two weeks....Comment

Jon, talk to me, what's going on?Comment

I'm waiting on a reply from Gothwalk. Remember that they have this funny Thanksgiving thing over in the States and the entire country seems to grind to a halt!
When I know more I'll let everyone know.Comment

I was unaware of the situation. You see, I've only just made contact with the people of America and I'm not familiar with their customs. I've got a diplomat on the way over, it's just that my longship is taking ages to get there...Comment
