As your host, I'd like to finish this game under 2.12.

Umh, ok... I thought that Mosehansen's server will be updated soon and most of us are playing there as well, so updating our game would safe those of us playing there as well the hassle of having two different Versions of Dom2 on their harddisks. Since I also do not see any disadvantages of updating, I thought we are updating as well, but by any means, I do not insist in updating.

No problem with staying with 2.12 here - albeit there may be more "cheating" Messages caused by my using the Stone of Alchemy.

I'm playing games on Mose too, and agree that is a compelling factor bearing on when to patch. Let's keep an eye on that, shall we?

The disadvantages of updating are never known until several days after people have downloaded and installed the patch, possibly breaking things. (Look at how long it took to get the Skratti and Great Warlock back, as a minor example of this.)

I'd vote to stay synchronised with what's running on mosehansen, if possible.

Problems with the Linux patch probably means Mose won't upgrade till that gets straightened out.

That is exactly what I wanted to express in my previous Posts!

(The Linux-patch seems to be there, but there are still other issues which might prevent mosehansen from updating anyway...)

HELP!

I have problems connecting with the server: It asks my password, but then the screen goes black and nothing happens for at least 10 minutes. It probably something weird with my laptop computer or with the Internetcafe I am in, although other Dom2-Games seemed to work...

...so please, could you stop hosting until Tuesday next week? I am away from home at a conference right now and I wont return home until Tuesday next week, so that I could try and reinstall the game. I also wont visit the forum regularly since I need to go to an Internetcafe to do so, which is quite away from my hotel (which doesnt offer any connection to the internet despite calling itself a buisness-hotel!

Thanks!

PS: I did try my laptop before and did my Last two turns via my laptop, just to make sure that everything works while I am away. I cant understand why it isnt working right now!

PPS: I can connect with Mosehansen (Glacier) just fine, so I assume that there is indeed some Problem with the server! So please disable hosting for this week! Thanks!
