But for the players, PBEM is much easier than TCP/IP in that you don't have to periodically check the server to find if there is a new turn. All you have to do is check your email, which most people do routinely anyway. Myself, I far prefer PBEM when playing.

but jm´s server runs a script that sends you a notify email once a new turn is generated, so you get the best of both  . And there were no problems running the game on his server.

Yup, the automatic email notification is fantastic. I've never actually played PBEM mode...  |
