Re: Evermore - MegaGame - Started
 

I have the mega-age v2 downloaded and enabled (says so in the preferences screen)
I have the evermore .map and .tga file directly in my maps folder
(I also have played the first 2 turns without problems)

NOW
I click on network
I click connect to a dominions server
I enter 67.66.187.69 and OK
I enter either 10020 (this was the old one) OR 9945
and
in a milisecond, no processing time or what
MY SCREEN is totally RED
BRIGHT red --> with a black mouse cursor that I can move.
and nothing anymore

A friend of a friend of mine used to get this before he purchased a legitimate copy of the game. Maybe check the CD key?

hi

due to aezeal's problems connecting, i've taken over the lovable nation of shimuyama for the time-being at least. Hopefully Aezeal will come back, or I will be able to find a permanent sub later.

Failing that, please oh nameless lord let me be crushed before the endgame.

Anyone else having trouble connecting tonight? I've tried twice and my PC just hangs with the perpetual message "Waiting for game info." Then I have to shut down the computer. Previously, the info has come basically instantaneously. I've carefully checked the ip and port. The problem doesn't appear to be there.

I see from the status page that several people have been able to take their turns.

Re: Evermore - MegaGame - Started
 

i got that the first time i tried. second try was as easy as pie. if you can't get in ask vel to restart the process.

Re: Evermore - MegaGame - Started
 

It took me a couple tries to get past the:"Waiting for Game info" message last night, but I was able to get in and get my turn done.

Re: Evermore - MegaGame - Started
 

I finally got in. Do you guys think it's because too many people are trying to get their turns at once? If that's the case, then I just always had great luck up to this point.

Well, the unthinkable has happened. The superpower MA R'lyeh has just about been trashed by... MA Atlantis. Wow.

That was a masterful attack the last few turns, btw, Baalz. You only lost one fairly useless Ancient Kraken (after you take all the indies with it, it really just lays around and eats a lot), and took like 4 provinces as well as sacking my capitol for a turn.

Anyway, R'lyeh may be out of it in a few turns (I can hear all the cheers in the background already), or, I may pull off a masterful counter-attack of my own. We shall see.
