Only starwarsluke has to do his turn for it to quickhost.

And only drool has replied to my idea...I want some feedback.

hey, if you guys have room for one more person, i've been looking for a game.. haven't played a MP game of Dominions2 yet..

"And only drool has replied to my idea...I want some feedback."

I am interested but I am playing 3 games all at the same stage, turn 20 odd (this is behind but catching up). The turns will start to take longer at which point I do not know if I will have the time (assuming I am not eliminated in any)

So assuming I will either get eliminated or switch to a slower schedule in the mid - end game I am in.

alexi...everyone here are newbies, majority is that this game we are in right now is our first so i dont see a problem of putting you in if this second game actually happens

basically all we need is a host and enough of us that want to participate

In a pinch, y'all might get Norfleet to host a game for you on Kludgemush. His price is that he gets to give the game a nice snarky (snide sarcastic) name, but his server is second only to mosehansen.

new turn is up did my turn

Well Norfleet is currently hosting our game right now and really don't want to bother him about hosting another. I on the hand have my computer on 24hours and would have no problem with hosting a server for us to run our second game(and then I can come up with the wildly sarcastic name lol).

Aku, Drool, Pickles(maybe), new guy Alexi, anyone else so far? We would need to decide on a map and game settings.

Post your responses on the thread please.

Okay, cool. Have you tried hosting before? If you have a firewall or router, it may need to be tweaked to open up a port and whatnot. Depending on the firewall, this may take minutes, or it may take hours - might want to do a trial run and have someone try to connect.

If you've already gone through this before, I'll shut up

but it can be frustrating, especially after you've already announced the start of the game.

Klatu · #**219** July 24th, 2004, 04:15 AM

yes I have hosted before.

Aku · #**220** July 24th, 2004, 05:37 AM

yeah we have tested it with me connecting to klatu before

for game settings...norfleet recommended when we started our current game to play karan...you guys want to give it a try

if we play karan there were 3 files...do we dl them all?

also for events they happen like every turn on common but on rare they still happen a lot but it isnt bad...so i recommend the 2nd game for events to be on rare

also for magic sites...how about at least 50 this time?

indep strength i guess 6 or 9 i dunno, 7 indep like we have now just seemed odd

world richness...either normal or rich...no clue on that one

put hof on 15 and renaming allowed

these are just suggestions to get the ball rolling

for my nation i would like to try out abysia if tannath isnt using them again
