Uh...if I don't set any timer interval or hosting days, and have only quickhost, what you have is "indefinite" quickhost, in which the game will NEVER host until everyone has sent in their turns.

I thought you wanted me to try to get it to host at 1200 UTC weekdays, with quickhost enabled?

Ok, once more: There are two ways to schedule the game. One option is setting a timing interval, like 24h. This is not what we want! So leave it at zero please, that is disabled.

The other schedule method means setting a bunch of fixed dates, which is what we want! The GUI allows this by listing each day by name. I refer to that listing which is on the lower end of the screen (the first being checkboxes for pause-days, all should remain unchecked). If you click these, the game will ask for a two digit number. Click Monday and enter 12. Rinse and repeat for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, but not for Saturday and Sunday. Finally enable quickhost. You can set this up anytime now. Thanks!

Please contact me if you need a full commandline. I am at work, so I cant compile it right now, but I recall that the options should contain something like "-t 2 12 -t 3 12 -t 4 12 -t 5 12 -t 6 12 -q", but I will have to verify that later if you really want to set it up like that.

Based on the information I posted, could somebody tell me what time zone, if any, the box time is in?

I actually already did that five Posts below:

Your host system is set to UTC. No corrections needed.

(You can verify it yourself with a web browser window at this web page which displays the current UTC time, so for this purpose there is no need for the sun and a real window anymore. Since I assume that you had obtained your host-system-time shortly before posting it in this thread a few Posts before, together with your Posts timestamp, your system is set at UTC.)


English is still a foreign language to me, and I know that I have a huge problem with making short and easily comprehensive sentences, so please excuse me if my instructions above are a bit to explicit.
