Hermjard is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Questions about pbem procedure

Hello!

ad 1: Of course I processed the turn after I have reset the password and saved the game. Still with the warning that the "new" players order-file is missing (player 9 in my test-game). I assumed the necessity of saving the game, because the time stamp of the .gam file didn't change right after the password reset and I saw now other place where this information could be stored.

Regarding "Hermjard", I have to disappoint you, the nick its purely invented It originates from a Multi User Dungeon in which I was active years ago. I had a character there (a gnomish, white mage) which I named Hermjard (that term just came to my mind when I generated the character and wondered about gnomic sounding names). Because I played him so often, I took over that name as nick for myself later on. But you are not alone with your assumption; I got several questions about the nordic origin of my nick. Some even state, that Hermjard is the name of a minor entity of the nordic pantheon. But I was never able to verify that and if it's true, then it's a big random event.

Regards,

Hermjard

Hi again,
1: Dunno, It has always worked for me. I think you are supposed to process the turn after you have changed the passwords, not save.

2: PBW sends out: xxx.gam, xxx_Combat.cmb and xxx_Log.trn to all the players after processing the turn. Guess the other files are just needed for the host.

BTW:
Nice nick. Got a very Vikingish clang to it, even if its not quite right (I believe ). So, what is it ?
