PBW Down? - Back up! - Page 27

Omnicron1 · #**261** August 16th, 2003, 09:54 PM

ok someone posted a message that the host could run the game w/o PBW i'd like to start doing this. But...I'm not quite sure how to do it do I already have the necessary game files and all the players have to do is email me their turns?? plz say yes LOL

I thought there was an extensive message on that already in this thread. I'll go take a look.

[edit]: Yeah, Samurai posted it about 5 screens down. I've done it before. Not hard to do. Just send a message to each of your players...and, I guess, make sure they want to do it that way (not sure why they'd disagree).

I have Cox Cable here in AZ, and while I have heard of people having problems, I have had very few myself. When I have had problems, their customer support has been excellent. From a performance standpoint, the network is faster now than when I signed up several years ago. Long story short, at least some providers are still coming through.

Thx for the directions to the how to post

(I got lost, you said five pages ago i assumed page 24 was page 1 and went to like nineteen or something along those lines anyway I've now read the whole thread twice [once as it was posted and once trying to find the place] and one quick unrelated question...how do I get new cooler avatars and how do I get promoted...that's two questions...

Well, I think your avatar is pretty cool...but if you want to look around, there is a thread in here called "house of 1001 avatars' (or something like that). It's might be a page down or two.

I'm not a pro on promotions but I think it runs a promotion at 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000 Posts. After that, I don't know....

4000 is the Last promotion.

I'm signed up with Rogers cable here (~3yrs) who many people complain about, but my experience has just been like AK's to a tee, except I've never even required any customer service to this point!

I envy you both for having good service with your ISP's.

The progression of Cable Services

Cox Cable Mid 80's to early 85's - Never dealt with
Columbia Cable 85 (Est) to 97 Ok, good to their interns

AT&T 97 to 2003 Ok at first, degenerated
ComCast 2003 Fricking horrible

Too bad I can't place the PBW server at my work place at the Miami NAP (Network Access Point). We guarantee 100% power and connectivity and incredible bandwith, only hardware issues would be the only concern.

I used to be on cable. Never had a problem.

Now I am on DSL. Never had a problem ( City not included )

Luck of the draw I am guessing
