Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yeah i am not trying to be agressive I know it kind of comes off that way but I have been doing this for a long time and have an idea of what to expect.

My key key key point in all that rambling is that if there is some problem or issue you can communicate it to the playing group. I have spent hours waiting on people only to have them come back and say they had some problem with family or something and if they could have taken 2 seconds to send an e-mail or chat msg we wouldn't have wasted a ton of quality playing time. Connections just plain die, computers crash, children need IMMEDIATE attention, I understand all of these things and am not some cold-hearted person expecting someone to pray at the altar of the game. Just expecting people to try their best to be considerate.

And i definetly understand working on other stuff during turn downtime but that can always cause problems thats why if a problem does happen because your running multiple apps you at least come clean on whats going on so we can fix the problem. And you at least know to not obliterate your bandwith while playing a network game.

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

Interested in Joining with the intent of conquering the world. I'll go ahead and Take Arco then, as I see it is still searching for a god worthy of it.

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

I sent Jam3 an email a little while ago requesting Arco... But I will take something else if Arco is your preferred race.

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

Is it still possible to join this game? If so I fit the profile perfectly. Single software developer, late-nite person, plenty of free time, Dom2 addict. East Coast U.S.

let me know,
thanks

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

I am pretty much sitting on the dominions chat channel right now.. heres how to join if your not an IRC user. I am installing another machine and loading a new mouse (got the fan mouse today!). I didnt get an e-mail from the guy who wanted to play acro again its jmorton@pnm.com.

goto mirc.com and download 6.12

the install is a standard next next next

when you first launch it will bring up the options screen

choose IRCnet as the IRC Network and a server appropriate to your geographical location. NOTE: you can always get back here via Tools->Options and its the connect->servers screen

hit connect to server and it will connect then bring up a channels list... type in dominions (i don't think its on the main list) and wala your in the dominions chat room

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

Ok current list is...
Had sucessfull connections and the server is up.. ip is sent via e-mail and i am sitting in chat

Re: Aran - The land of strife
 

How is this going?

I would've joined but my mIRC expired awhile ago, and the two other IRC programs I tried wouldn't work....(Visual IRC kept crashing and Leaf IRC would not finish it's search for channels...)

Anyone recommend a good, free IRC program?
