Any chance of getting this behaviour changed Esben ?
The games are not restarted just by browsing them When I print the forms, I check whether a form element makes sense. If it doesn't, I sometimes print a substitute message --- in this case the message that the game cannot currently be restarted.

The game was restartet on purpose ... I even got a mail about it, I think.

I've sent an email to the game creator. We will have to see. Thanks for the effort
Another week with no sign of life in this game.
Time for the axe?

It might worth taking another peek at the logfile for Semiblitz. Although it's a bit hard to tell (no timeout and the server saying it's at turn 1) there appears to be no activity in this game.

It appears that it is no longer possible to upload maps. I'm getting Error 500: Internal Server Error straight after the upload.

Map uploads may be fixed. The permissions on the map upload dir was really strange; I don't know how that happened.

I've killed the Dom_in_Cam!_Again! game. I'm sure I will hear if they were playing

The Last one will have to wait --- I have to go now! Thanks for the effort :-D

Mose - can you let me know when it's safe to start Try Something New, which is configured to play on the world map ?

Esben has installed world.map, but when I tried to start Try Something New, it nagotted. The game was then stopped. I restarted to find the game still in the open state. Tried again, same result. Any ideas?

Yes, of course I followed the instruction about same file names, they are quite clear. And I changed the reference in script file itself accordingly.


Mose, I've just send a PM to you. Could you please take a look and see what's going on with our Thrne game? I've described our troubles and possible reason for it in PM. If you could get it started, it would be great, or if you could tell me what we need to do to make it start. I am using the Version of the map that I've uploaded myself, but you must have 2nd one from Zap as well - we uploaded at at the same time, indep. of each other.

Thank you,
Stormbinder
