oh, and yossar, could you perhaps put the server on QH, not 24hr quickhost, when you go away for a week? If something messes up, and we can't connect, having the server force host anyways would destroy the game, instead of just creating a little haitus.

I don't think it would matter much, since so far when something was messed up the server just go down and game stop (except "mod" problem that we had in the begining, which was fixed). But we can do it, I suppose, just in case.

well, before the machine really crashed, i was getting the perpetual "waiting for game info" bug. From experience on mosehansen's server, someone in a game could get that, everyone i guess, and yet the game will still go on.

server down

did zombie get his turn in? because, if so, it seems to crash/get messed up only when hosting.

I accidentally kicked out the ethernet connection. Should be back up now. Right?

I can't connect. It's a Windows box, right?

Looks like Linux is still the only reliable platform for serving Dominions

I hosted a MP game on my standard issue win2k machine for 3 weeks without problems (Except my accidentally turning the machine off now and then).
