So, I see the patch is out. Are we going to patch up for turn 11?

I would say not quite yet, since some of us are playing in other PBEM games.

Page 31 of the manual says that a host must patch before using files from players who have patched. So if a player has patched for one game, but is playing in another game where the host has not patched yet, there could be a problem hosting his turns.

I suppose what is needed is a consensus to patch among game hosters for current games in this forum, so that all PBEM games are updated with patches at the same time.

I'd be fine with patching up myself, but I won't insist.

I've just read in the forums that mixed versions will not cause crashes, so I will apply the patch before hosting this turn. Just in case something does get fouled up, the current game files will be backed up into another folder before I host #11.

Errr, nerfix, could you send me turn #10 again, attaching early_marverni instead of mid_marignon!

Here, I was thinking I was the only one that does this sort of thing!

Turn #11 hosted with version 3.01 and sent.

Please update your copy of Dominions 3 to version 3.01 before doing your turn. Thanks.

Turn #11 does not include mid_marignon!

This reminds me of another MP PBEM Dominions II I was playing in. My detailed plans to attack an opponent were indadvertantly messaged to him instead of my ally! Profuse thanks for this info arrived with the next turn! I blame the game for not having a header on the message screen reminding players who they think they are corresponding with.

Sorry, disregard the first thing i sent. I need to patch first.

[CelestialGoblyn]

Sent. It's called 'turn 11 - patched'
