Positive. I've checked the numbers multiple times. I'll try again in the morning.

IIS on the server was freaking out... restarted it... we'll see if that helps.

The final message was

Connection failed

The Dominions server or your connection to the internet might be down. Also make sure you entered the correct ip-address (address) and port number (number)

retry
cancel
That's what I've been getting, too. I checked the map, mods, ip, and port#.

Oh, will there also be turn notifications by e-mail?

DOOM!

For next time:
1) The algorithm to pick which sites are "in the middle" was borked. Not a huge problem, but next megagame I'll do a much better job - balancing start locations which are remote from other players is an issue even on most wrap-around maps.

2) I had meant to fill all four slots in every capital with sites so that searching spells would skip the capitals. Next time, I'll do so.
