Eriu has one last castle and everybody is waiting for him as he make his turns every 20hrs...

OoohSnap (Eriu): play faster please, or if you are bored or not interested, change to AI...

I am sorry for stalling but I can't seem to be able to connect myself to the game...

Edit: Nevermind I seemed to have been able to take my turn through the use of the 3 client window. (I just want to see my last castle taken down instead of turning to AI, sorry for the inconvenience I may have caused.)

Run the game windowed, not full-screen.

1) Start the game.

2) If it hangs at "Waiting for game info", then do not close the window! Go back to step (1) and start another copy.

3) After starting 2 dead copies, your third running instance of the game should connect. If it didn't, you should not have gone to step (3) , so go back to (1) and start another copy!

Please post here again if that doesn't work for you.

I've emailed and messaged Zach, but he has not replied. I'm probably going to bow out of all Evilzombie games because of the connection problems. I don't think he is actually administering the servers anymore.

On the positive connection problems seem to be fixed.

On the negative I just lost my prophet to an assasin at the beginning of a major war! lol

The connection problem can appear fixed if there is another player connected at the same time, who already did the multi-window trick. In this case, me. I was connected waiting for the last player (you) to do their turn.

As the Frog mentioned, I'm the new CEO of Caelum Inc. All diplomatic messages can be sent to sonsane@roadrunner.com but please don't write this address on a public restoom wall (I get enough love/hate mail as it is).

Oh, and although I might have fallen of a turnip truck, I didn't fall off last night.

As a wise man once said - blood is the price of victory!

As another wise man said - there is no victory at bargain basement prices.
