Default Re: what do you like about PBEM?

Hey, I did finally manage to get online late yesterday evening. I loaded Dominions on my new computer and even upgraded to V1.6. However, I was unable to find all the proper mods before I had to get some sleep.

One of the mods I was unable to find was pretender 2.01. Cainehill had attached this mod in this thread long ago, but that attachment was blank. I also found it posted by Cherry in the Zen mod thread, but that was a .rar file which I cannot currently read. I would appreciate if someone would attach this mod in a post here. Alternatively, I think that copying Pretender 2.0 as 2.01 works, and I may try that this evening.

As for the game, I have still to hear from my son about what he wants to do, but I will be seeing him tomorrow. If it turns out that he does not have time for this game, I could try to find a new partner.

copying 2.0 as 2.01 works unless there are changes to your pretender in 2.01 which isn´t likely .

Okay, my current preference is that we keep going on this game -- Panther and Tauren and Turin having missed one turn -- and I turn off forced-hosting.

And I fix the e-mail notification.

I'll go turn off forced hosting.

It looks like everything is working out for me with my new system. I did my move, the turn hosted, and I then did my next move.

E-mail notification is still broken. I'll work on that.

I think I fixed e-mail notification.

I have now fixed all three of the "problems with TCP/IP games" that we discussed earlier. If anybody has any other suggestions about how to improve the serving of this game I'd like to hear it.

Regards,

Zooko the Hosto

I see that Panther has been overtaken in the Hall of Fame by that upstart Peneios.

Now if I only knew whether either of them were my enemies then I would know whether to worry about a sudden strike by a super powerful Pretender...
