Perhaps only players who agree to actually continue to play through the game should join up.

I, for one, wouldn't have any problems with playing I even if II is out. I don't know if there's any sense in doing things only half-way, so: How many of you know they can keep playing even if demo / actual game is out? I know I can.

About hosting, sorry can't do it either. My university mail has some major lag problems and work address is not for major PbEM hosting... Was the thread starter prepared to host or just asking if people were interested?

I will continue the game to it's end regardless of DOM-II state.

I too can't host the game.
My web mail account (hotmail) can't handle much traffic. Plus at the end of the month I'd have to change my ISP.

I can handle the hosting, if you are ok to use an hybrid system some of us use :

- you put your 2h files, or retrieve your .m files with an utility which is linked to a distant server.
- the hosting is done manually by me, if everybody is in. I check the files once a day, generally between 20:00 and 22:00, GMT+2 (thats evening French time).
- After the hosting is done, the files are put again on the server. You then get a notice by mail to retrieve them.

Just tell me.

edit :
for whose interested :
question : why I dont simply host with an IP address?
answer : I cant have my auxiliary machine run all time, because of noise and room constraints. (And it wont change before long)

I'm afraid this is probably true for me also. However, maybe we could get a Dom II Demo PbeM game going...
