Ah, my apologies. I thought your statement about being too busy to host plus the fact that you are looking for a permanent sub in the game meant you were not planning on hosting permanently. If I misintrepreted your intention, that is not at all surprising (given the difficulties of communicating by writing).
All this diplomacy does indeed take much time, which I have been quite short of lately. Once I am eliminated in COW and the Yarnspinners game ends, I will be down to one game, (which is just about right now for me). And it is just a game anyway. I wonder when Dom 3 will come out... (Shhhh, quiet Panther)
I did receive the script and I messed around with it a bit, but I never did figure out how to use it (or even open it). I finally decided that I was computer illiterate and didn't have a clue about what to do. I had completely forgotten all about it until you mentioned it above. At least now I know I am not quite as lost as I had feared since it only works on a Mac (which I do not have).
