That's great that we can restart so quickly. Not that I care so early in the game, but if we sent scouts out no Turn 1 of the last game, and you recreated the game, I'm assuming we have new start locations and any scout orders from turn 1 were canceled. Right? Just curious, because I'm still at work and wondering where I'll be when I get home to check if I want to resend my turn 2 or use existing.

Somehow or another, the new game has the same start sites.

Hi All:

I am happy to keep going, but I don't quite understand what Alneyan did. But, it does not seem that I have all the turn files for all players yet.

Why not just restart the game using the orginal pretender files? Seems to me like the best course of action since we're only on turn 2.

Except that it's taking a week a turn right now.

Alneyan, I decided to redo my turn just in case... I sent it to you because I don't know Pasha's email. Thanks for being the gracious host while getting this monstrosity off the ground!

If you reply to the last Turn2 email sent by Alneyan, it automatically will be directed to Pasha's email.

Alneyan · #**288** August 2nd, 2005, 10:48 AM

I will write Pasha's mail plain when I send the next turn, so that there won't be any such problems.

What I did for that turn 1 was take all your order files and recreate them from scratch; you stared at the same locations because I set all starting points the second time around.

Well, I have to confirm that my motherboard appears totally dead after moving into my new house. I am hoping for a work-around with a borrowed laptop (for tomorrow when the cable is installed), but I will soon have to order me a new computer. My dead computer is about 5 years old, so I suppose it is time for a new one anyway. I do have a fairly new 19" flat screen monitor, so its not all bad!

*Sigh*

Hello All:

If we could wait a bit (hopefully just a day), I would appreciate it. I just bought a new computer (a Mac), and the patch to 2.16 is not working. Ugh!

It appears that Illwinter might have made the patch with a program (iPatch) that itself was recently updated to work with the latest version of Mac OS X ("Tiger"). The older patches did not seem to use iPatch (or so it seems from searching the forum for help).

I have sent emails to Illwinter and the folks at iPatch for help. We will see what happens.

Thanks. Sorry for the continued delay.

Sorry to hear about Panther's computer. I got this new Mac a tad earlier than intended, because my old Dell laptop died just last month.
