FFH II PBEM I Tech Issues Thread

[pocketbeetle]

Hey, who has the turn?

Must be with Cull?
It's understandable - I imagine I missed his bed time yesterday by sending it an hour or two later than usual.
But surprised he hasn't been able to play it (T25) today. Things have been moving pretty smoothly.


Blitz session: Sunday?

Would you guys be up for Sunday, at the usual time?
Saturday is unavailable to some, hence the alternate suggestion.

But just to be clear - I'd be shelving other plans to make it on Sunday, so can we have a definite 'yes' or 'no' from everyone please.

That goes for me too. I'm heading to a friends on Saturday, and it is a fairly long bus and train journey back. I can make it back here for 1600 hours if I know we've got definite plans, if not I'd prefer to have a bit of a lie in since we'll be out late on Saturday night.

To summarize: Yes I can make it, but it is a hassle so if it isn't going ahead I'd prefer to know in advance.

I'll be the villain and say that I can't make Sunday first .

As long as we keep passing the turns around in a reasonable fashion I don't think the blitz is nearly as critical now as it was during Stasis.

[Selrahc]

No worries. I'd much rather know now than on Sunday afternoon.

Got the turn, thanks Cull


Will play in about 5 hours.

[Sareln]

Supposedly AT&T is coming by today to change over my internet connection (switching providers) between 1300 - 1500. Hopefully I'll be able to grab and pass the turn before the guy shows up, but if there's a delay, that's probably the most likely reason.

Worse comes to worse, I'll walk next door and use the Neighbor's WiFi

So we didn't establish rules on screenshot trading before the game started.

Oops.

Anyways, How does everyone feel with allowing screenshot trades pre-Cartography?

I'm in favor. I won't be trading screenshots until we hit consensus.

Guess we haven't cleared this up yet.
Don't know if you're still waiting Sareln.

Since I seem to be the only person raising any kind of objection, I'll abstain.
Let's say we can trade screenshots from contact.

But to avoid looking hypocritical I myself may wait for Cartography.
Haven't decided yet.

[Bobchillingworth]

Cartography is a really cheap tech anyway, so I don't much care one way or another.

[Sareln]

forgot to attach the save in the e-mail to theArchduke. Hopefully my apologetic German was understandable and I didn't slow things down too much!

Also, cartography/screenshot question was a hypothetical being bandied about, so I thought to check it. I'll go ahead and keep it as a part of my "what to offer" bag.

[TheArchduke]

5 more turns and I can finally do something else, instead of pressing "Enter".

Note to ourselves, next FFH PBEM start with a 30 turn blitz session..
