I don't have a problem with lack of email notification.

The problem is when I believe I'll get email notification, I'll stale if I don't. The first time I asked about not receiving an email I got a response that implied there were email notifications, just not that time. I did not get a clear answer telling me there weren't any.

Partially relevant: I don't know if this is know to everyone but creating a new desktop icon for Dom3 and adding " -C --ipadr 74.236.0.134 --port 1026" to the command line causes the game to start directly into this game we have going on here. It's really handy thing to do with every network game as it saves the trouble of always typing the server ip/address and port number and checking the game status is literally only a doubleclick away.

That is a good tip Zenzei!

Luckily the 2 server games I am in, are both on the same machine, so it's just a matter of changing the port back and forth.

Maybe we can figure out the hosting clock issues and email notification before we restart this game.

Ok.. it was news to me that emails aren't going! Jim, are you getting them in either game?

Strict, we're not restarting; the vote was 3-3.

Nope, I haven't gotten a single email for either game, except the 2 emails on the first day, the test mail and the notice that the game had started.

Actually, I did not even get those. I did not get a single email about this game from anyone - no test mail, no start notice.

Default Re: NEW EA GAME - sign up please

Jazzepi, Grietor, Azeal and SR all voted yes on the restart. I'm not sure how you are counting votes, but maybe we should have someone who is not having "their best start ever" count them.

I am happy either way. But I also know that in addition to Xanatos, Bwaha missed the deadline for his pretender and would like the chance to submit one and join the game.
