In my first game on your server Lex plays Caelum . Huzardaddi uploaded Caelum before Lex uploaded his pretender ....
Sorry, no, once the game is started there is nothing anyone can do. Check those md5sums! md5sum plus a lots of other utilities from "a real OS" can be downloaded here http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/.

Again, I'm sorry.

Thnx Esben . No need to apology . It was mainly Lex's fault and mine a bit too for not being persistent enough and simply believing Lex everything is fine .

And thnx for your really good server . If there wouldn't be your server i guess i would play a lot less dominions 2 mp

Hmmm, I never considered it that way. So, Esben, I guess it's your fault I play too much Dominions!

Seems to have happened again (Newbie_Intermediate getting stuck), unless Jotunheim is taking a _very_ long turn.

I see the problem. It's the Jabber notification system that has gone sour. Will fix tonight ... need to work now (Waiting for a compile to finish...)

Sweet. I'm glad that it was so quick to diagnose. Thanks again for the great server!

Well, I'm quite liberal with tracing...

Anyway, the problem turns out to be a faulty check for non-existing, triggered by Eureka non-existence(?!) as a player:
Code:
+---------------------+------------+---------------+
| game_name | nationname | controlled_by |
+---------------------+------------+---------------+
| Newbie_Intermediate | Mictlan | Eureka |
+---------------------+------------+---------------+



I'm more than a little baffled by this. Anyways, I've fixed the non-existence check so it shouldn't matter anymore.

Default Re: New & raw web based Dominion II game server

As an extra note: I've just tested Jabber notification, and it seems to work. If anyone else would care to help test this... they could post their player name here and I could send a test message.

The Jabber system apparently attempts to send the message to whatever system it deems you are currently active at. This seems to be the client which logged in the latest. This can lead to surprising results. It is also rather wrongheaded, in my humble opinion.

Hi Esben,

It's been a while since I logged on to your server. Is there any chance you could PM me with my password? I seem to have forgotten it.

If there are any major changes that have taken place with the server that I need to be aware of, I'd also appreciate notice there. Otherwise, I'll just figure it out.

Thanks again!

I'm happy to help in any way possible. My player name (surprise!) is Ygorl.
I used to get Jabber notices intermittently. Lately I haven't been getting them at all.
