Killers PBEM

It is standard, just with so many civs everyone has as much room as on tiny (making for early contact and trading = fast game)
 
You guys haven't started yet? :p

I'd prefer std map, with std rules, and std hitpoints, and everything standardized, but generally anything is fine. Let's start this. ;)
 
oh ****!

what am I doing wrong????????


I try to get the game set up. So I host it, selcet PBEM, boot all the idiots who can't read, then select 8 human players and the AIs, then get

a) the wrong player for me

b) the right map, but wrong start (sstandart units, not the set-up scenario)

c) game over right away

:aargh:
 
if I customize *anything* the game crashes. I hate Firaxis!!!!

Now I have to re-boot since PTW crashes when I select 'host'. What a screwed up program!
 
OK, after a LOT of fignting my PC and gamespy I got the game set up and started - and despite selecting starting units 1 and 2 as 'none' i still get a setler and a worker - in someone elses starting position :( :confused:
I alos get my town and , oh, btw, on startup the gmae says 'game over'.....


anyone out there who knows how to fix this???????
 
OK, I think I worked it out - when i un-selected starting units I alsso deleted the starting pos. doh!
 
gunning, meldor: please give us your e-mail addresses! I will send them around to all players, you should have the other players addresses by now (sent via forum mail).
 
Heiner, something is wrong with this game. There seems to be only one human civ. Could the problem be that it got created on a non-us version of PTW and meldor has the us version of PTW?

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

as for the game: no idea. I'll try again, I hope we do not need to go to gamespy all 8 at the same time...... :confused:

KD: how did you set up the other PBEMs you are playing?

I'll try again right now.

I tried starting a normal PBEM game. right after the start I get the message
'good, the games is like, over'

and can choose to end it or play on. playing on means ingle player :(

I cannot start a game for several people without it quiting right away :confused:
