Re: 72 hr turns
 

FFS, can't connect again. I hope this is due to Gandalf switching the server back and not an issue that I am going to encounter all game QQ

Turn done - kind of like crack, just want more http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

That sucks foodstamp, got a router? Done the whole reset/reboot thing? I wonder if it would help to port forward to your PC if you have a router and other machines.

Re: 72 hr turns
 

I had trouble too. But I connected ok when I used the lnk file Gandalf provided at the website. I haven't rebooted the router. I know that will do weird things. One time it wouldn't let me on my aol mail. I could do everything else online.....just not aol. I chatted with an aol techie too. Then I thought just for the helluvit, I rebooted the router and the problem was gone. I may try that later.

Tried and true method of any techy geek, reboot everything, then diagnose http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif (some rarer instances this gets you even more problems, but the symptoms are generally major enough to avoid it)

Re: 72 hr turns
 

It seems to me that I can't connect the first time, but then connects easily if I close the game (I had it in windowed mode) and reconnect. This has happened the last 4 times I tried. Always the first time hangs but the second attempt immediately afterwards gets through.

Re: 72 hr turns
 

Same here LoloMo, that's what works for me. I can't actually close the first window either, I have to kill the process. But then it always connects the second time.

24 hours..
 

I also vote for a 24 hr cycle. Looks like most people are getting a turn done very quickly and then we're usually waiting for one person.

Re: 24 hours..
 

I cant think of anything I changed at my end to cause a problem. Other than that 72 hour thing. I will fix that now

Re: 24 hours..
 

It is working again. I have narrowed the issue down as a problem occurring somewhere along the line between my mouse and your server. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: 24 hours..
 

Now I can't get in. It is connecting to the server fine, I'm getting hung up on the 'Getting Game Info' part. And by hung up I mean can't Alt-Tab or Ctrl-Alt-Del out unless I reboot my comp.
