Default Re: what do you like about PBEM?

I think that the issue of whether hosting is forced or not is separate from the issue of whether turns are transmitted by TCP or by e-mail.

I can easily restart the server and set it to not force hosting until everyone's turns are in. Also I can (perhaps less easily) fix the damn e-mail notification service.

If I did those two things, then the server would have all of the features that you desire from PBEM, right?

Not really. TCP seems to be plagued with problems. PBEM is much more reliable.
