Someone had presumptiously conquered an Independent province that Bwoo the Great of T'ien Ch'i had been intending to Enlighten. That province has now been properly Enlightened.

Dear Red Team and Yellow Team:

To each of your peace-loving nations We, Bwoo and Stavros the Great Ones, extend Our heartfelt greetings and well-wishes.

We observe that while the Divine Will of Heaven and Earth have indicated that Purple Team and Blue Team must be utterly destroyed and eradicated from the land, it is likewise necessary for the Great Order Of Things that Red and Yellow survive and prosper in their appointed places.

Therefore, if there is any aid or intelligence that We can offer to you, our beloved brothers (or sisters as the case may be), please do not hesitate to call upon Us.

Affectionately,

Bwoo and Stavros the Great Ones

I thought of another reason I dislike TCP. It's too easy to accidently upload your turn before you're ready.

Ioticus - The best method for playing TCP/IP is as follows:
1. Connect to the game and select your nation.
2. Immediately exit the network game WITHOUT saving anything. To be safe, I always hit the little box with the 'X' in the upper right corner.
3. Open Dominions from your desktop, load the correct saved game, and play your turn to your heart's content.
4. When you are happy with your turn, go back to the network game and connect again.
5. Your new turn will automatically upload into the server.

This avoids the annoying procedure of accidently ending your network turn without doing anything.

That helps. Thanks.

hmm I seem to be struck by a rather annoying bug. My positive scales order 3 and growth 3 have mysteriously vanished in my capital, despite having lvl 5 dominion there all the time.
I hope they come back sometime, but they have been missing for 3 turns now.

[Zooko]

I could try stopping and re-running the turn, but from what I recall it won't help with that annoying bug. Sorry. :-/

[King Lear]

Anyone else having trouble acessing the server?

[Zooko]

Yes, I suspect there's a networking problem in my area. I'll keep you informed as I learn what's up.

[Hubris]

Wow. Both my games are down at once. How nerve-wracking.

[Zooko]

Server back up. Power outage. Sorry.

I'm unable to connect due to mysterious failure, but my bro is commanding both of our nations in my absence.

Red Team and Yellow Team should feel free to ask us for help and information.
