Comcast dudes came and went. Did a few tests-- sadly my internet was working just fine.<

They found a very loose connection in my box outside and tightened it up. Hopefully that was the problem.<

I guess that tighting the connector didn't do much, timming out... --If it ain't

As for a permanent solution, it's in the works. It wasn't Comcast, it's something with my router. I have a few friends who are more knowledgeable in such things coming over to take a look over the next few days.<

I'm looking forward to getting this back on track.<

ok, woke up this morning and found the router acting up again.<

I now have the modem directly connected to the computer running the game. <

*important* I backed this game up by one turn (I save the game every turn). I believe that most of the 24 hours of the current turn were missed, and I think it would be fair to give people a chance to catch it again.<

This is only a temp solution, as I need internet access at my other computers for important things, like WoW raiding tonight! <

Silly Question..<
>
<
>
The workers can make Roads and other Improvements. It also offers for them to make an automated Trade Route. If I make a road from one city to another, is that considered a Trade Route? Or, is there something else to it?<
>
<
>
My Crappy Gear on Magelo <

If you have open borders with another civ, your workers will make roads that connect to theirs when you automate them.<
>
<
>
As far as your own cities, trade routes makes roads from your farms, towns, mines, etc, to your cities. So that it is easier and faster to get troops and supplies to and from different areas that you own. Shadow Jeris Elvenblade<

Reset it, and now I get an "Unable to negotiate with the host's firewall" error from Civ4 when I try to enter the game.<

Here's the thing; there is no firewall. The windows firewall is off; and I just went to the router's settings and checked-- its firewall is turned off too.<

I will be out of town from Evening of April 7th till afternoon of April 10th.<

I'll have my cities and research all set, so someone can just hit "end turn" during those times.<

<

I expect I will be able to play my turn on morning of the 7th and evening of the 10th. So may only miss on the 8th and 9th. Shadow Jeris Elvenblade<

Could you ask someone who's not playing to hit enter for you? That way no one sees your position / forces, etc.<

Took my turn this morning, out of town again till Thursday night.<

How about this? Why don't we kick and let the AI play people's turns when they have to go out of town for a few? When they get back, they can just rejoin.<
>
<
>
That way, no one gets the advantage of seeing how people are arrayed, and yet the player can defend against attacks / research, respond to threats, etc.<
>
<
>
<i></i>

sounds good to me <i></i>

<
>
<

Done. From now on, when someone announces that they are going out of town, I will kick them (if they don't retire themselves). When you get back, all you have to do is log on and rejoin and yer back in business .<

new patch out, including a new pit boss!<

I'm hoping it has fixed a few pit boss bugs (like no free tech for Fin, and the fact that we can't use passwords).<

<

I will keep this version going for now, as it works, but this afternoon expect the game to be down for a few if I find a way to transfer it to the newer pitboss program (rumors are it's possible).<

We all have to update for it to work, right?<

Well, the new pitboss isn't working yet atm-- I'm apparently missing some necessary dll files.<

<

<i></i>

So do we need to patch to new version, or are we going to stay on old one for this game?<

Tried connecting to host and couldn't, so I assume you are still working on changing pitboss. Shadow Jeris Elvenblade<

yep, I'm sorry-- it's down atm, but I've been with family / friends for Easter, and haven't gotten to it yet.<

<

Hopefully tonight I'll have it up, and the goal is to have it under Civ4 1.61.<
>
<

Not being able to upgrade Civ4 to 1.61 for the entire game would suck, so trying to figure out if we can switch it (mixed reports on various message boards so far, and I haven't gotten pitboss going yet due to company).<
>
<

Anyway, the game isn't running right now, so no one is missing turns.<

I located and installed the required dlls. The newer version seems to now require Civ4 on the computer it's installed into, as it appears to be attempting to load Civ4 when it runs.<
>
<

I do have Civ4 installed on that other computer, but it can't run (under the specified requirements for the game. When i try to run Pitboss, I get a Civ4 error that stops everything from going.<

<

I haven't yet figured out what I"m going to do. I've also been rather busy.<

<

I do have a sort of informal poll to ask:<
>
<

if it turns out that cannot load this game on Civ4 1.161 and pitboss, which would you folks prefer?<
>
<
>
1. We keep going. Everyone keeps a working Civ4 1.51 on their computer to play the game.<
>
<
>
2. We say fuck it and quit.<
>
<
>
I would rather find a way to keep the game going, but keeping two copies of Civ4 installed on my computer (1.51 and 1.61) kinda blows.<

I'm fine either way, would lean towards keeping game going. <i></i>

If you can, keep the game going.<

Student teaching is drawing to a close, and the work piled up. In addition, this was a big week for the high school band (where I student teach), with a concert on Wednesday and Contest tonight. I have been doing nothing but band stuff all week.<

I haven't given up on the game, and I'll get back to it asap. If any of you are impatient, I can email you the save game and you are welcome to set up a server. Doesn't matter much to me either way, but I will get it up soon.<
