Default Re: PBW Down? - Back up!

Thank you! I know PBW will run the turn even with old .plr files, So, I upload .gam file and this will show all players as having not yet uploaded their .plr files? (i.e., what happens to existing .plrs from before the PBW went down -- can their existence inadvertently trigger the PBW host)?
Thanks, Merry

If you upload a replacement turn, I think the old .PLR files are removed an dthe turn you upload will be sent out to all players as a new turn for them to run.

That is correct.

I don't wish to sound impatient. But, is there any kind of ETA on when PBW will be up and running again, or maybe even an update on what's going on.

There is a tech at this very moment onsite trying to figure out what the problem with the line is. Unfortunatly that's all I know right now. Assuming they find the problem in the next couple hours, something of which I am confident but by no means certain, the site will be back up and accesable this evening. Once the DSL line is fixed I have a bit of router re-configuiring to do. I can't do that till I get home from work but it shouldn't take too long once I do.

If they can't find the problem with the DSL line, well I don't care to think about that for the moment.

Take something precious to him hostage, demand satisfaction. Take his Nextel, they all have Nextels.
