Question about Multiplayer.
Do you need the MP Gold edition?

The reason I ask, is that I loaded up Test of Time today and it has multiplayer capability.

ACK!

I was going to mention that possibility, but I don't think 'Poly would condone the use of such a patch, should one exist.

MGE is pretty hard to find, that was why I was asking about ToT MP.

No ACK, I wasn't trying to get rid of you. I was just kind of suggesting that maybe another site might have a patch that could help you since WE DO NOT CONDONE THAT TYPE OF THING HERE

That is, unless they are slow players or they cheat

You really can't outlaw slow play. But you can stop playing people who do play slow

Well... many of the rules are meant to discourage slow play... like not using hutfinder DURING Your turn... and other such things.

And yes, slow players don't get invited back to games.

If a non-condoned patch allegedly existed at another site then hypothetically it would upgrade either 2.42 or ToT to MGE.

I have both... and I gather there are some nefarious places where you can upgrade 2.42>MGE or downgrade ToT>MGE. It's not quite a patch, IIRC, because it's not ToT anymore when you're done modifying it.
