Stupid question from a newbie PBW game host

[ghrialton]

With Version 1.49, Malfador added the ability for the game owner to reset a player's in game empire password. This is very useful any time the in game password does not match what is on PBW, like if the player changed it and then forgot, or had to be replaced in the game and didn't tell anyone the password.

You have to run the turns offline to do this. Download the current turn files from the Game Admin screen and then log into the game as the game master.

Click on the game menu button and then the options button. Then hit the reset passwords button and highlight the empires you want to reset passwords for. The game will pop up a box for each empire and give you the new password. Click ok and then close and then end turn.
When the turn processes, unpload the files to the PBW as a replacment turn from the game admin screen and then email the player their new passwords. They can change that to something else if they want when they play the next turn.

Yep, from the PBW faq, section 3.5 I don't know if this method works with gold, though. Good luck with your game.
