Default Question about PBEM and different game versions

I'm hosting several PBEM games with version 2.15 but am about to host a new PBEM game in which I'll probably have to upgrade to version 2.16. Is there a way to upgrade without conflicting with the previous games? Can I have two versions of Dominions at the same time? How would I set that up?

Just keep a copy of the 2.15 dom2.exe, and rename it to "dom215.exe." Then use that exe for 2.15 games, and the fully-patched 2.16 exe for 2.16 games.

You could also copy the entire folder and patch one of the two folders, if you want to be on the safe side.
Works for me =P
