Re: Okay! We are moving!
Are we planning to patch? People should probably keep using the old version of the executable until you do.

Re: Okay! We are moving!
Ah, good, this'll be interesting and a very useful test. The llamaserver's meant to react as soon as someone sends in a patched turn, send an e-mail to everyone explaining what's happening and stop all timers until I can patch it. So if someone can send in a patched turn, we'll find out what happens.

Re: Okay! We are moving!
Oh, if and when it sends out the "stopped until patched" message, I'd greatly appreciate comments on the accuracy and clarity of the message. Version changes tend to cause mass chaos to MP games, so I'm really hoping the llamaserver will manage to be robust and non-confusing.

Re: Okay! We are moving!
I just did an extra backup of all the game files just in case.

Re: Okay! We are moving!
Okay, all under control. You should have all got an email (or several!) from me, but anyway the llamaserver's all patched up, and the plan is to use v3.06 for this turn and v3.08 for future turns. If you accidentally use v3.08 for this turn though, I _think_ you'll probably be fine. Sorted!

Re: Okay! We are moving!
Please can you let me know if you get any quirky behaviour going on at all? One of the players in the other game on the llamaserver had it reject one of her 2h files, even though there was nothing wrong with it. If anyone else has had anything similar, please let me know.
In fact in general, please please please report any quirky things at all, even any spelling errors in the e-mails it sends out, or if you think any of the e-mails are less clear than they could be. It would be great to have all the basic running of the server completely smooth before I open it up to more games (I'm planning to allow other people to admin games on it, so there may end up being a large number of games going without me even necessarily being involved).
