It seems to be intermittent at best. If this happens, kill Dom2, retry. This usually gets you in.

Yes, this works for me too.
Ctl-Alt-Delete, End Task, Re-launch Dom2 invariably gets through for me.

Rather than restarting this game we created another one with the same setings. So if you are unhappy with your start you can switch to AI and join this game... or play both if you feel daring.

All the rules and settings are the same except for the hall of fate settings. I reduced the hall of fame from 15 down to 14, I thought this would give the game a vastly different feel and perhaps a luckier beggining.

The port is 2238. Please join and register on Mosehansen.

I'm at work now, so I must be brief.

First I'm going to stale this turn; it's not because I'm not playing, just that I forgot to check yesterday evening. (Got to playing Neverwinter Night, and suddenly it was midnight)

Secondly, if you're willing to get an Jabber account, warning if about-to-stale is in the works. I'm thinking about a 2-hour warning.

Thirdly, even I have the problems with login (on a local network). I THINK the cause is the server pushing 430Mb swap, and thus needs a little time to bring the requested game into memory. Or it could be a bug. But since I'm having the problem on the internal network rules out firewalls and other connectivity problems.

Finally, if too many people (>40% or so) are AI or AWOL by now, I will go AI, too. I can play with the AI in a less inconvenient manner

Not sure if I'll rejoin... Norfleet seems just a wee bit trigger happy with restarting this game

Huh? I'm not involved in the restarting of the game at all. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Sorry, brain malfunction. Writing from work, wrote too quickly, too many edits, it went awry. Sorry to slander your name :-(

Turn 7 just ran, and only 7 players submitted orders, which is absurd. This game is clearly defunct, so I'll stop it and return the slot.

Apologies to the 6 other people still playing - I suggest you move over to the other similar game that is starting. Maybe it won't suffer the same connection problems that have plagued this one.
