2 small mp newbie questions

when i am a bit more expierienced i would like to play dom 2 in mp too
but the games which are offered here are they mainly pbem or are they played simultaneous for some hours once a day/week or so ?

I would say 90% of the games offered here are TCP/IP with at least a 24 Hour Host Schedule (meaning a turn will be generated once a day) though you may see a few 48 Hour ones on occasion. I rarely see any PBEM's offered here, but on other MP forums they crop up from time to time. The most limiting factor is having a trustworthy and stable host for the game, which is why Mosenhansen's server is good since he has so generously allowed the Dom2 community to use it. Another good place is the Qt3 server found at the Quarter to Three website in games.
