My Nation has staled last turn. Very annoying. I had come several times to the servor to make sure everything was OK during the long wait for LA Ermor, and it was constantly saying "turn uploaded". As a matter of fact, none of my orders were processed.

Is it normal? What should we do to avoid this from happening again???

I think I will never play a direct connect game again

I had one similar experience in the last game I played in, as did a few other people. It was a one-time thing that, as of yet, hasn't occurred again.

It really sucks and I'm not sure what the cause is. It happened early on to some people in NewbsWithLowSelfEsteem, but it never happened in NewbsGoneWild.

Well, I guess the games rollin', diplomacy kicks in, arrangements being made and treaties signed. I have a good diplomatical tool for your future debates.

Caelum and EA Ermor better hurry, there's only 6 hours left...

Okay, being as how my 'bad' connection is my main connection, I'm going to need a favor if I'm going to continue playing: I need someone who can send me the turn file through email every turn, and then upload my 2h file for me. The preferred candidate will be a trustworthy player in this game who checks their email reasonably often and enjoys long walks on the beach.

Please and thank you.

I made a mistake on my timing. I have been traveling for a couple days but I thought I was good until this morning.
My bad.
I took my next turn.

SirMu, I'd be willing to do it, but I vaguely recall reading something about antipiracy protections for multiplayer. Does anyone know if AP would be a problem if the same machine/copy of dominions sent in two different turns?

It's gotta be a firewall causing this. I doubt it's because (if?) you're behind a NAT, since I am and nothing is going awry. Are you positive you don't have any firewalls running on your computer, or the windows firewall service?

Oh hey, you're right. How about that.
