It throws an error and craps out in the middle.

You try eliminating .plr files one by one to try and find the problem?

Of course it could be more than one... try executing with just your own .plr file and skip everybody else's turn see if it executes...

I will when I have some time. This weekend I've been running around. I'll be able to do that tomorrow.

Hey no rush it's actually good the games have been going slow.

Whoops! Didn't notice the turn timer creeping up on the ST game. Sorry about that. Not that I had time to take a turn this weekend (been running around from place to place), but I submitted a blank turn so Neph can process it.

OK, here's the skinny. If Player 1 (Nephtys') turn is omitted, it executes, albeit very slowly. If Player 4 (Kojiro's) turn is omitted, it executes fine. If anyone else's turn is omitted, it's still broken.

So either Nephtys, Kojiro, or both should troubleshoot.

Hm. If you want you could send the .plr and .gam files to my e-mail and I'll see if I can execute them... maybe there's a difference though I doubt it. I won't get to it until at least tomorrow at 1 PM though so maybe you could send Nephtys the .plr and .gam files to verify it (and the game master password).

The game master password's kensiko101 . Not that it matters, since the only possible use for it is to execute turns. I suppose you could continue executing turns without .plr files, let the AI take over and explore someone's entire territory and figure out where all their shit is, but if you're willing to waste that much time to cheat I don't give a shit and you need a life lol. Already three people know the game master password, so I don't care if everybody knows it.

If I need to troubleshoot then someone needs to tell me what to do.

*EDIT* My turn has been redone and resibmitted. Hopefully I did everything but I have that nagging feeling I forgot something.

*ADDITION* Well I redid my turn and it still doesn't like it. Anyone got any other ideas?

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2006-05-09 12:09pm

Turn files sent. Have fun.

Nephtys · Post by **Nephtys** » 2006-05-09 01:18pm

I'll get to it tomorrow or late tonight. Got an exam.

Post by **Dalton** » 2006-05-12 01:40am

Can we get a turn here?

brianeyci · Post by **brianeyci** » 2006-05-12 01:51am

No,
[size=0]since I'm not the game administrator bwhahaha! And I don't want to e heh. Tuxedo's had problems with churning the turn, he can't execute without making Nephtys and Kojiro skip their turns for some reason.[/size]

Yeah. Everyone, c'mon. Adamant away. *does her turn*

Me and my family are off for vacation on Monday. I should be back on the 22nd, possibly earlier, so could we set the games until last play upload only please? Sorry about holding things up, but the games have been crawling anyway.

brianeyci · Post by **brianeyci** » 2006-05-13 10:25pm

Your will be done.

Anyway they're already on ALPU and that's why they're going slow, since nobody's getting the nag e-mails on ALPU.

Solution : Increase nag to "last x players" to get the last couple people in... come on I've been waiting on adamant for a week lol.

Thanks, though you're not running any of the games, are you?

That's what I want you to think.

It's been set for the B5 game. Not that it really matters right now since the turn's broken, with an unknown repair date.

brianeyci · Post by **brianeyci** » 2006-05-14 12:56am

You know.

If the turn is really broken, we could just trash it. Who really cares it takes 5 minutes to do a B5 turn anyway and nothing ground shattering happened.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2006-05-14 01:11am

True, but I haven't heard anything from Neph and Kojiro one way or the other, yet. I'm hoping they can identify the problem before we just roll back.

Nephtys · Post by **Nephtys** » 2006-05-14 01:12am

I'll re-submit my turn .plr in tomorrow. I don't have SEIV on this compy. If that doesn't work, let's rollback.

Kojiro · Post by **Kojiro** » 2006-05-14 11:57pm

I said earlier I'd redone my turn and beyond that someone would need to tell me what to do. If there's anything more I can do someone please tell me.

Nephtys · Post by **Nephtys** » 2006-05-16 02:21pm

Turn redone. Can you run it?

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2006-05-16 06:35pm

Still broken. Let's just roll back.

Nephtys · Post by **Nephtys** » 2006-05-17 03:26am

Alright now, we're back in action on B5!

Oh. If anyone wants to mess around, I've finished basically my side-job mod with the weird research and custom graphics.
