turn sent to the Hive

This is my first tourney, so if i make a mistake, i'm sorry, and please advice me on it. BTW, since when do you have to add "www" in front of apolyton.net? no wonder i can't get into the forums these past few days...

Greetings to everyone!
May the fungus be with You.

Hi all!

I know I'll be glad to make your acquaintances during the course of the game. Good luck to all and happy gaming!!!

Hi everyone!!

Just thought I would drop a line to see how the game is proceeding now that its been arranged? Anybody know? Thanks.

Radman

Skanderbeg · April 6, 2001, 05:06

Also still waiting for my first turn

Tau Ceti · April 6, 2001, 13:32

I have tried to contact Pat... if I do not get a reply from him within 24 hours, a replacement player will be found. Sorry about the trouble.

It's been a week since i sent the turn. is there something wrong with the savegame i sent?

Radman · April 9, 2001, 19:47

Hi there:

Unfortunately, no one evidently received the move. Who did you forward it to? Based on the initial posting I would say the next move goes to pata_85@hotmail.com (Hive).

Radman

Tau Ceti · April 10, 2001, 19:19

Yes, it is definitely a player problem, not a game problem. A replacement player has been sought; hopefully the game will get moving soon. I apologize for the delay.

Iskandar Reza · April 12, 2001, 02:07

Ok, I sent the turn to the replacement player, Walt Schellin (shedim@altavista.com, waltshellin@home.com)

Hopefully the game will finally get moving

Walt · April 12, 2001, 05:56

I see the turn's made it to my altavista box. It's the middle of the night where I am...well, no, it's 04:52, actually, and I'll be off work in another hour. I'll play the turn and forward it to Skanderbeg when I get home.

Might as well start off with a bang: In AXT042, the other game I'm currently playing, we rendezvoused via icq and then played 17 turns in a couple hours via tcp/ip. Would you folks be interested in doing the same thing? Just scouting for interest level...

Anyway, thanks for the welcome, and I'll move the turn along shortly.

Walt

Tau Ceti · April 12, 2001, 08:00

Thanks, Walt! The names and addresses at the top have been updated.

Walt · April 12, 2001, 08:19

2102 to the Cult.

Note that my home email is waltschellin@home.com (note the 'c' between the 's' and the 'h'). It's my preferred email address. All email should go both there and to shedim@altavista.com, just to ensure arrival and timely response.

Shouldn't be a problem with me; I'm on holiday and I'm at home basically all the time.

I misspelled your main email address. i sent to both addresses. luckily you had to addresses

Turn 2103 sent to the Hive.

Am I the only one posting turn sent messages?

Walt · April 13, 2001, 07:35

2103 to Skanderbeg.

_____

No, I do, too. :-)

Skanderbeg · April 15, 2001, 09:55

Turn 2103 received and passed.

Radman · April 15, 2001, 17:50

Ya, I'd be willing to try. However, I've never played in TCP/IP before so you're going to have to provide some directions. Glad to have you on board.

Radman

Radman · April 15, 2001, 17:52

Turn 2104 received, played and passed to the Pirates!!!!

Radman

Iskandar Reza · April 16, 2001, 15:21

2104 sent to the Hive.

Walt · April 17, 2001, 05:53

2104 to Skanderbeg.

Skanderbeg's in Germany, and because of individual schedules, I think we'd have to shoot for some Sunday morning (U.S. time) to play. Iskandar, where are you located?

Mechanically, tcp/ip is easy, especially if you're not hosting. Just click Multiplayer, then tcp/ip instead of hotseat/pbem. You'll get an option to host or join, choose join. Then enter the ip address of the host (which will probably be me). Once we schedule a game, I'll send you all my contact and ip information, and we'll be ready to roll.

Radman · April 18, 2001, 19:10

Hi all:

I'm ready anytime! Just say when.

Radman

Radman · April 19, 2001, 20:28

Move 2105 received from Skanderbeg, played and forwarded to the Pirates!

Radman

Iskandar Reza · April 21, 2001, 02:55

Turn 2105 sent to the Hive.

I've started college and work at the same time, so my window of time available for PBEM and or TCP/IP is from 3 pm to 5 pm Apolyton time.

Walt · April 21, 2001, 17:31

2105 to the Cult.

______

When my next free weekend comes up, then (don't hold your breath), we'll do some planning, but let's convince ourselves to enjoy pbem, 'cause it doesn't look like there's much tcp/ip in the near future. :-)

Radman · April 22, 2001, 20:17

Hi everyone:

I just wanted to let you all know that I've now tried 3 times to forward move 2106 to "Iskandar Reza, Pirates, at ireza@maxis.net.my" but continue to get the message the his service is unavailable!!! Any thoughts on how to proceed???? Thanks.

Radman

Walt · April 22, 2001, 20:59

No idea. We'll have to wait to see how Iskandar replies to the situation.

If email is down but net access isn't, you could send him the turn via icq, agreeing on a rendezvous time via this board.

Walt

Radman · April 24, 2001, 22:02

Hi all!

Perhaps good news. I tried yesterday to send the move again to Iskandar Reza, the Pirates, at ireza@maxis.net.my and got the same result, "Service Not Available". I tried it again today, and thus far, NO faults or notices regarding that his service was "not available". Maybe he got hooked up again!!!! Hope So!!!! If any of you heard from him, let him know he should drop us a line if he could. Thanks.

If it indeed got through move 2106 sent.

Radman

Iskandar Reza · April 25, 2001, 06:33
