Has anyone had any luck connecting? I can resolve the name but that is about it.

I took my turn this morning and had no trouble. I believe I was the first person to move other than Bug.

What exactly is it doing at your end?

Just a follow up to my Last post. I tried connecting again and had no problems. All but two players have submitted their turns. So unless you hit the server during some downtime, I'd guess the problem is at your end.

I got it. As a warning to others dominions2.kick-***.org is the name of another server out there. Be sure to include the s in kick(s), or you will dive yourself crazy.

The server's IP is changing on a daily basis. I recommend you use the full name to connect.

I also didn't know that there's a pr0n site called dominions2.kick-***.org. Wierd. Err, I'm in no way affiliated with those guys...

I added cradleofdoom.dyndns.org to my dynamic host configuration. So you can now use both hosts names to connect.


Edit:
I just found out that *.kick-***.org will be redirected to a pr0n site. I guess they are trying to catch all the typos to the dyndns service or something.

Blofeld - Marignon hasn't taken his turn yet. He's the only one and I'm afraid that he'll get a Stale turn. Perhaps he isn't aware that the game started. Is there any way that he can be contacted and reminded to take his turn? Or perhaps, let someone on the waiting list take his spot and we can start over?

The game should have been hosted a few minutes ago but we're still missing Blofeld's turn. I disabled forced hosting for now and PMed Blofeld again. He also should have received the Turn 0 email notification 2 days ago.

If he doesn't show up until 8pm CEST I'm going to kick him out and ask the people on the waitling list to take his spot.

*sigh* Seems like we need to restart the game. Blofeld still hasn't replied to my mails and didn't do his first turn. I contacted Cainehill and in case he's still interested in playing with us the game will restart ASAP.

I hope you all don't mind the delay/restart.
