I haven't been able to use a computer much lately. Hopefully I'll be able to get back onto the MP scene in awhile.

Finally manage to get on Hamachi, and only one other person is on... 
What happened to our great multiplayer game schedule?

Try FallFromHeavenAnnex (password also ffh). I might be there a little later tonight.

Hum... Hamachi is down for the moment, but is anyone up for a night game after it gets back up?
I'd like to give MP a try, but I don't know if I'd be able to finish the game. Is that kosher?

I think that's been the trend for all timezones. Maybe it'll get more active as summer approaches.

Did you guys manage to get a game going last night?
I would be available to play a game tonight if others are interested.

Ah, good idea.
Ok, i entered FallFromHeavenFull and I see some familiar faces, brainpain, much2much... What now??? How to use hamachi? (I know I'm noob...)
Also I would be interested to play one more roleplaying game than competitive.
On other channels are Sureshot, Mithrus, BChalchet, dalladin, but no luck in joining by copying IP
EDIT: Brainpain has shown me how. If anyone wants to play a more diplomacy based game I'm all for it.

Claire, SS, I'll hopefully have time from now on so we can continue our game 
Would someone like to play a longer game (6-7 players), FFA, dipomacy, and roleplay at least a little bit (i.e. help your weak ally instead crushing him). Of course such game can't be finnished in one session, but those that can't play a session should find a replacement or let their civ be AI-played for a session.

awesome, hope to see you soon...but Friday and this weekend is going to be too hectic, and won't have time.
Gamespy doesn't work very well for FFH games in my experience.
Hamachi is very reliable and games can at the very worst be reloaded, rehosted and work fine from there. This is only required in the case of some dropouts. Joining can be a problem but normally if people are blocking each other just reverse the order they join (easily organised with Hamachi chat) and get them to reconnect.
Gamespy on the other hand won't even let me join or others join some games for an unknown reason. This may be due to the same issues that even vanilla Civ4 suffers based on a very poor multiplayer implementation that requires open ports through to every system (WTH? PM me).
I am not interested in figuring out this little Rubix Cube and also am not interested in joining games on Gamespy and spending hours trying to troubleshoot when Hamachi works far more reliably.
If you want to play FFH download Hamachi and play the least problematic way. It takes ten minutes to get it up and running.
I will gladly spend time with people getting FFH games running over Hamachi if they need assistance.
If somebody cannot be bothered to go through this process and expects games to be run through Gamespy they can go and get [censored due to forum rules].
