I would be fine with starting over and trying the newer settings that will force it to host at midnight if someone doesn't move in 24 hrs. I think the main reason Gandalf isn't just making it host at midnight his time is the possibility of stale turns.

I've been checking this game once a day to see if Pythium has moved, but I just resolved to stop doing that.

Hosting just once a day is probably the simplest solution. Anyway, more than 1 turn per day wasn't working.

wow Im sorry. got involved in the DomMap thing, and a job interview. Time flew. SOmeone should have prodded me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

OK Im guessing that making the change should only stale Pythium if anyone so I switched it. I will try again for the combo of having both quick and midnight set since Kristoffer says that should work. Its supposed to operate as quick IF all turns are in OR midnight if there hasnt been a quick since Last midnight.

on the side, the --postexec thing is fun to play with on game hosting. I had it text messaging my cel to tell me to take my turn http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif but thats too much. Ive had it write data to a web file. (wish Dom2 would export game info like the score charts). Now I just have it send me an email.

The battle reports are not only inaccurate they are erronous. I (arco) have watched a battle replay in which I won the battle and got a message that I lost the battle. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I probably owe it to Illwinter to try and pinpoint the bad reports. Instead of playing my next solo game on my windows machine I think I will play it with my windows machine as a client and my linux machine as the host. That way I can go thru a fast solo game with two OS's

But that is an old and apparently seperte problem. No one got stale turns on the switch?

Should we do anything for our unfortunate Caelum player to supplement his income? This Caelum bug I am sure must have hit him rather hard.

What happened to Pythium? (our game master?) Did he dropped out or ...?
