Re: Newbie Game
 

well i guess i'll check back every once in a while to see if hubris put the server back up.

Re: Newbie Game
 

It's been a week.
Is there still interest in this game?

Do we want to go ahead without hubris, or keep waiting?

I can host if we want to go ahead. I haven't hosted before, but it looks straightforward.

Re: Newbie Game
 

Well, I can only assume you guys don't read the Gotterdamerung forum. I apologize for the delays, life's been kind of hectic. I'm surprised you guys didnt' start w/o me.

Anyway, server is up.
hubrisrakarth.game-host.org
port 2010

Re: Newbie Game
 

Joining up tonight and no, i dont check the gotterdamerung forum.

Re: Newbie Game
 

Excellent.

I did see your original post on Gotterdamerung, but that didn't sound like you'd be away long. After a while, I figured things had gotten more complicated and figured I'd see what people wanted to do.

Glad you're back.

Re: Newbie Game
 

Cool, now who was I playing again?

Re: Newbie Game
 

Well I uploaded my pretender again and am still waiting for the game to get off the ground.

Re: Newbie Game
 

Uploaded my pretender.

Re: Newbie Game
 

Pasted from the Gotterdamerung thread:

Oh, and uh... first off, man, this has got to be the most accident prone game ever. The only thing I can say is that I'm doing the best I can...

So uh... apparently my new connection is not stable enough to maintain a single IP address. It switches without even telling anyone. Good to know... now...

But this causes a problem. Since I don't know when it goes down, I can easily check and fix the URL once or twice a day, but not all the time. Which means it's unfair to have any time limit on the turns.

If there's one thing I will say about this game, it seems to be a VERY good game, and we have one of the most dedicated crowds I've ever seen. So I'm going to leave it on quickhost for now, and just trust everyone to do their turns. Also, this is all my contact information, so if it does go down, you can get in touch with me without me having to check these forums.

If anyone else wants to host, plz do so.

Re: Newbie Game
 

As I said before, I'm willing to host.

I've put a server up:
silverfool.com
port: 2010

I've set indies to 6, everything else default, which was, I think, the latest plan.

Hubris,

I've had similar connection problems in the past. There are several free
"dynamic DNS" services which can remap domain names when your IP
changes. I use ZoneEdit. You might want to check something like that out.
