Update... where is the save now Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Well I do still check in here (being a Consul and all ). It's been a while since the last save arrived, so I scouted the UN to find out what was going on, and thought I should tell everyone.

The save reached GWT, and then they posted this:

quote:

Bad news:
The save is corrupt, if we want to watch the details of our trades, the game crashes.
The version (english or german) is not the problem.
I write a pm to FortyJ and mongoose, i hope this problem will be solved by replaying the last turn, but imho the bug can only be solved if we play not the same turn again


FortyJ has responded to this and is working with GWT on getting save going again.

I would look at CDG to see where the save is now but that site is difficult to navigate, I can't seem to find that silly colloseum bit anywhere or any links to it.

You are absoulutely right OPD, it kind of sucks.

Go to the "multiplayer matchups and other competitions" forum in the that index box at the top of the page that has the drop downs.

Then when you get to that forum its called "The Colloseum", go figure.

I just keep a favorite that takes we staright away to our ISDG forum.

But your right it does kind of suck

Ask GWT if they can fix the problem another turn?

Besides that, there's really not much we can do. Either A) FortyJ does something that satisfies GWT or B) GWT continues playing for some reason.

So let me get this straight: Because FOR ONE TURN, GWT and GCA are unable to use their Right of Passage with each other, they've delayed this game for a MONTH?

For the sake of their units being slowed for ONE TURN?

GWT should take a page from the fate of GCA in the CISDG and figure out what this is likely to get them.

I'm not entirely sure that that is the whole story; they won't elaborate on it besides what they told the Admin (FortyJ)

Here's the lates correspondence I've had with the Civ3MT creator:

quote:


Greetings!

As you migt be aware of, Apolyton has a team in the InterSite Democracy Game. It has been underway going on two years now! But, we seem to have hit a few bugs that seem to have to do with Diplomacy flags within the game. These bugs cause the game to crash.

I do not know of the specifics because it does not happen on APO's turn. It happens on another teams turn (German Webring Team or GWT) I have asked the game's Admin to contact you regarding this problem as I felt you might be able to guide him in fixing the game. It would be a shame to have to scrap this game after so much effort has been put forth by all teams. I might have even went to Firaxis with the problem, but they were eliminated from the game very early on!

Here's a link to the Forum where we track the events of the game and report various happenings from the game such as sending the turn on and so forth. It's over at CDG.

http://www.cdgroup.org/forums/site/...wforum.php?f=22



I and my team mates would greatly appreciate it if you could provide some assistance in this matter. Thanks.

Consul for Apolyton in the ISDG


Maybe I can look at it on Sunday, but my tool is under reconstruction, so I'm not sure how mush I can do in this state. Real life and other gaming has reduced the time I can spend onf Civ3. So I cant promisse anything.


Thanks for even considering it. We are just at a point where we don't know what to do.

Ha Ha

Dam good point!

The leadership "issues" earlier this year could have been made into its own soap opera all by it self.

Good to hear we may get this one going again BF, my fear is that the level of interest with the team will only decline further with this enormous delay

Lets hope Im dead wrong
