Default Re: Parganos game for 6 players (signing up)

solo, it would be alot easier if you copy the Parganos map file to something like "ParganosFixed.map", then use the map editor to edit it yourself, and let your players download the map when they connect to the server. Since the map image is the same like before, they only have to download the map file from the server - that's just some kilobytes of text. If they fix the original map file, then they might have problems in other games later on (the server checks CRCs).

I didn't know that, but wouldn't other games later on be plagued with the same problem when starting?

Why not fix the map, to keep this from happening again?

Anyways, it's up to ajr, who is setting up this game on his server. We'll go with what he decides.

OK, I *think* I've correctly edited the map and started the game. I have confirmed that I am not starting in province 31, but I need everyone else to do the same. Quickhost is on, but I'm not going to start the timer until we've confirmed that the start locations are correct and everyone can connect.

I am not on the island. I wish I had been, though. My starting
position sucks big time, and I do not even have the excuse :-)

My starting location is O.K.

Quick question ajr? Did we need to email you our pretender passwords? In case someone has to leave and we need a replacement?

my location is not island-bound. Now just Agartha left. Hopefully he's ok.

Agartha, where are you?

Are you aware that prompt moves are requirement for playing in this game?

Better to drop out now if you know that 24 hour deadlines will be a problem for you to meet consistently.

Okay, I guess you were not aware it was up to the players to check this thread daily on progress towards starting the game.

For all future moves, everyone will receive automatic email notifications whenever a move is hosted.
