Just a couple thousand feet too much between my house and the central office for the DSL to handle smoothly.

Yeah, I remember you mentioning that before. Problem is, we wanted to rollplay it up a bit and, somehow, make it a bit more exciting than just a physical distance problem. If not supernatural events causing the problem, at least allow us "our cat"...

Ok. Maybe it's a Phong cat?

It's Phong intel project!

Next comes Anarchy Groups (oop! already got those!

) Then PPP. ...But will we even notice a successful PPP?

ahh, im haveing problems creating a game...
its giving me
"We could not create your new game.

Possible causes include:

Server problems saving the game.
Game name was not entered, or has already been used.
You are not logged in.
If you are logged in, please try changing the game name. If this does not work, please notify the PBW Admin Team."

I have tryed changeing the name several times, I am loged in, cant think of anything else. can anyone confirm that creating games is currently working?

Check the games list and make sure the game really isn't there. ISTR that that error sometimes comes up even though the game was created.

Remember numbers aren't count. So 'Game' and 'Game2' are equal IIRC.

se5a · #**269** December 24th, 2003, 10:27 PM

there is no other game with the same name.
I checked.

Rememeber that the game name AND game filename have to be unique. You cannot see the game filename for all games easily from scanning the games list. Actually you may not be able to see it at all unless you are in a game. Can't remember that for sure.

Also when games are deleted by the game owner, they are not removed from the server immediatly until one of the PBW admins purges it from the system. You cannot see it unless you are a PBW admin, but it will still prevent you from making a game with the same name or game filename.
