Re: PBEM vs. HOST?
Yes, they connect and upload their turn then disconnect. At least many of them do though some will stay connected, particularly if it looks like it might host soon.
Everything has its pros and cons. In a PbEM hosting game you just host it then continue on with your day. With the TCP/IP hosting game you leave Dom running all of the time. And you have to load another copy to play your own turn. That can get in the way of doing other things on your machine.
