PBWEB questions
 
Sorry for all these questions, everyone here has been more then helpful!

I just started a PBWEB game. Got the file downloaded and started the game. It presented a list of empires, I selected my with my password and everything looks great.

Finished my turn, hit the save, it told me to just end my turn. I end my turn then it pops up saying it is ready for the next guys turn. I just hit quit then.

Question 1: Is that the correct procedure? Seems like something is wrong since it went on like it was the next guys turn.

Question 2: In the directory there is the .gam file and now a .plr file. Do I seem both of those back in the zip file?

Thanks,
Smitty

If someone wants to write a "click-by-click" procedure for newbies on setting up a PBW game, I can easily add it to the Newbie FAQ.

Anyone?

Yes, a click by click set of procedures for both creating and participating would be a good thing.

Thanks
