Default Re: PBW server is back up.

Well, depending on when you start counting, it's either 3 weeks and 1 day or 2 weeks and 4 days. Unfortunatly the ISP doesn't actually do the hookup, they have to contact the phone company to get it done. So it's actually the phone company holding us up at this point. The one week figure was simply what the phone company had been running at recently. Obviously they must have gotten backed up and are not running that fast anymore.

If I could hook it up myself I would.

I figured as much .

(I have all these ships and fleets that have been training in our game now for weeks and weeks of "real" time...by now, they must be up to 40% x 40% each.... )

Well, the Last turn email I got was on the evening of the 22nd. I figure PBW was disconnected sometime on the 23rd. That's when I'm counting from.

So, as of right now, that is 22 days. .... of agony!

Well, not so bad really. I finished a couple solo games but couldn't get the interest to start another... so I started a game of Civ II and I'm having a whale of a time! I haven't played it in so long its almost as much fun as the first time I played it.

Up for a civnet game sometime?

Roanon, I didn't start the app before I left so it won't run the turn, will be home tomorrow night (12 hours x 2 in a car with two small kids, that's a weekend!)

Actually I am playing a game of Civ3 Conquests. Unlike PTW and the vanilla Civ3 it actually makes for a worthwhile game.
