We can exchange emails per pm whilst we are it.

I am our mainplayer.

[Alhambram]

Joined your PBEM for test.

If it don't succeed, then with emails. I play turns for Norway.

Does PYDT lock you into submitting a save with random leaders or can you fix it in the lobby? It looks like PYDT has had some issues with Outback Tycoon events but I don't think it's anything that'll apply to this scenario.

Since Banzailizard has vacation coming up I believe I'm the primary turnplayer for Sweden. Signed in to the PYDT so fingers crossed it Just Works.

[TheArchduke]

Ok, trying to do this.

[TheArchduke]

Please join this, we need 6 players and 3 humans, not 3 players and 3 humans.

I played the first turn, so the savefile is already existing.

Pass: rb

So all 6 are joining, playing each once per two turns? Or is something wrong with PYDT and other three are playing France, Spain and Byzantines?

In the case that this PYDT is correct, then we also need joining order. There are two Europeans (TheArchduke and Alhambram) and 4 from Eastern US, right? Or am I mistaken?
If I am correct, then joining order would look like this: TheArchduke, Grotsnot, Suboptimal, Chevalier, Banzailizard, Alhambram.

[TheArchduke]

Nono..

I need 6 players for the 3 stupid AI civs.

So exactly like before please.

[Alhambram]

Ha, I understand now. Well then Grotsnot joins first and then I as last player same as before.

[TheArchduke]

Yeah, this is not going to work.

Error Message: Invalid game speed in save file! (actual: GAMESPEED_VALHALLA, expected: GAMESPEED_ONLINE)

Email might be better anyway since you can forward saves to both team members. Each team can select their password on the loading screen when loading up the save to prevent inadvertently cycling through to the next turn.
