Not "Nox" but "_Nox_". Llamaserver doesn't allow game names shorter than 5 symbols. I really don't know why.

I don't think you need the game name in the subject line for sending in turns. For me it is only necessary when sending in my pretender.

You are mistaken, AJ. How do you think llamaserver should understand which game is your file for?

I sent the 2h file but I keep getting replies that I'm trying to send a pretender file to a game already in progress. it is turns at llamaservers dot net right?

Somehow I knew I'd be the one messing this up :o

Probably you are
- either trying to send to pretenders(at)llamaserver(dot)net
- or you are sending not your turn from the game folder but your pretender from newlords folder

it's neither. I send the mid_bandar.2h file to the turns addy, but I keep getting replies from the pretender addy with my 2h file attached to it saying I am sending a pretender file to a game in progress. I am at a loss at how to proceed. Mayhap Llama can enlighten us.

Could you please contact llamabeast and describe your problem? I don't know what it might be.

AJ is not mistaken. The answer is of course that the server is magic. Seriously though, it's worth testing before telling someone they're wrong. You do, however, need the game name when sending in pretenders.

Also on the server trivia front, whether you send it to pretenders@ or turns@ doesn't really matter (IIRC), you just get different error messages in the two cases if it doesn't work. i.e. the server just treats the address as a clue as to what you were trying to do if it hits an error. Generally it works out what to do with the file from the file itself.

BandarLover - well, it seems to me that one way or another you are sending in a pretender file rather than a 2h file, although it's a very curious thing to happen. What I would do: delete the file in question. Take your turn again. It should reappear. If not maybe you are in the wrong folder. If you have no luck though, send it to me (llamabeast@...) and I'll take a look. Maybe there is an obscure bug somewhere.

Hm, llamabeast, I am surprised indeed.
How do you differentiate two turns for one nation sent into different games from same email? By particular game accepting or rejecting the turn? And if, say, all games reject the turn what error message do you show?

And yes, I am sorry for telling AJ he is wrong without checking:).
