I'm asking on IRC. Maybe post a thread for suggestions.

Well, best suggestion was have half players submit and half not

Then roll back. All round it's a bit of a mess.

Alternately you could have each player submit and force host without the others. Find out who's turn is corrupt.

Just end it. Jomon was probably going to win anyways

Maerlande · #74 April 30th, 2010, 12:03 PM

I can accept that. I'm just a sub anyways. But I'm having fun. However, I don't think Jomon has the win yet by any means.

SciencePro · #75 April 30th, 2010, 06:52 PM

yeah jomon is way ahead but i'd rather play it out and see what happens.

I will make a thread on the main forum to ask for advice. And I will add a delay in the meantime

okay so i haven't really gotten a lot of suggestions. Here is what i'm thinking: maybe the problem happened because of something that got set-up in turn 65 (the last one that worked). Or maybe it has something to do with utgard stale-ing so long.

So maybe we should roll back to turn 65. I will change utgard's email address to my own and make him AI. Then I will force-host with only his turn in. Then we can try to play our turns again for 66 and see what happens.

This sound okay?

You probably don't want to use your own email for utgard. You'll get a cheat error for identical cd keys. Ask for a neutral party to do it.

Otherwise it's the best idea we have.

sounds fine with me

I thought I could avoid the CD key error by force-hosting a turn with just utgard and no other turns to mess up the game.

But getting a neutral person to do it makes sense. i'll ask in a post.

Please, no one else submit turns while we are waiting for the volunteer to send the AI turn in.

hmmm well i did 2 rollbacks and sent the turn to our volunteer to set utgard to AI but we are still waiting for that turn. I was hoping no one else would submit turns but arco and jomon did. I think I will stale on purpose this turn just to make sure it's not me causing the crash. This may put me at a slight disadvantage but I think its worth it to gain information about this problem. Patala you can decide for yourself if you want to submit or not. Added 48 hours in the meantime.
