Good point. The only thing I'm sure of is that it wasn't hardcoded in the modem. hahahahahaha
The only times I tried to ping was after a game connect failed. (that shouldn't make a difference, but I'm running out of explanations.)

I'll try it later this week.

TO JR, Ping is similar to what you think it is from the old sub movies with sonar. You just try to send a ping (data packet) to his IP address to see if it's there. All sorts of details can be found, like what route it took and how long. I won't go into the pure technical since you I'm sure you don't care.

Yeah rah... we should experiment a little bit soon... and while we are both sober. I was in a state of shock that it worked last time considering that it has never worked in the past.

OH... and by the way... #16,000

I noticed that I hadn't take very many days off this year so I've taken a couple misc. days to play golf. On the prior nights I've taken advantage of it to play CIV

AND YES get that disk, even if you have to threaten someone.
And I would be tempted to not ungrade also.

Rich
The quality of the recent games I've played has been lower without your participation

Hope you can make it War.

The last time I didn't bring Pizza, I thought his wife was going to kill me. And the look of disappointment on my nieces faces is just too much to bear.

Read their posts again.
War4 says "however i know for sure that i cannot make it this weekend at all....got a date tomorrow i completely forgot about"

JR said "Ming, rah -- I assume the Friday Night STS session will be happening tonite. "

That's code for he'll be over to play games.
Board games, not civ. Ming only has one connected PC in his vast underground debauchery center. And I'll be using it.
