Re: Patching and PBW
Other way around. The players don't patch there PC's until after the PBW server generates a turn using the new Version.
example:
5 player game on ver 1.67
Turn processes on Tuesday
players 1 and 2 play and upload their turns on tuesday using verion 1.67
Game owner requests change to Version 1.78 on Wedsday.
PBW admins in an amazing feat of skill and dexterity which is typical of them complete this request almost immedietly.
Game is now set to Version 1.78, BUT turn has not yet processed.
On thursday, players 3 4 and 5 now get around to playing their turns. They still need to use 1.67 even though the game info screen lists the game as a 1.78 game.
Thursday night all .plr files are in and the turn processes.
Now all players must upgrade their PC's and play their turns.
