Correct. Play the turn and send it on to Tenchusatsu. There's really no need to forward it to knowhow2 unless we have problems.

When we end the session, knowhow2 will save the game on his end and then play it as a normal pbem turn.

Should work very nicely.

It looks like I won't get to play 2158 until tomorrow morning, since I haven't received it yet, and I need to get to work now. I'll send it to cbn immediately I've played it in the morning.

Then I'll wake up and it'll be time to SMAC! What a great day tomorrow will be!

*grin*

See ya, guys!

Walt,

Again I'm sorry about how things ended the last time. After that not so succesful session of tcp/ip game my PC sort of got overloaded. Even the easiest task took for ever to do. Replying a ICQ message took 2-3 minutes each and all the programs seemed to be on and I got more and more angry with it. So playing a turn quickly was hardly a good idea. Well **** happens, but I'm still sorry.

I think some of our problems derive from the use of icq. It's a memory hog and doesn't seem to unload properly. So after a few sessions of it, your memory is pretty much flooded, and it takes forever to perform even the simplest task.

Of course, it helps to have a bigger system, but if I'm right on icq, even a bigger machine will eventually be overcome.

No fault can really be ascribed to anyone: we were all the victims of a slow network and buggy program interaction.

I'll look forward to continuing via email.

Guess we're going back to the year when we tried to start the TCP/IP session. Maybe next time we'll just do PBEM while we're all together. But we'll need a chat client which doesn't hose up lower memory configurations, unlike ICQ.

I like AIM. Not as feature rich as icq, but pretty darn stable. Alternatively we could try an IRC client like mIRC, which would allow us to all inhabit the same "chatspace".

"What do you mean we lost the last two years worth of effort?!?"

"I'm telling you, it's these obsolete Network Nodes that we've installed many years ago. With the huge amounts of new data that needs to be processed, new needs for compute power from the research teams, and poor management from the tech folks, the system simply crashed. We were able to bring the system back online, but we had to restore everything from backups made two years ago. I'm sorry, but we'll just have to redo everything we've done going back two years."

Foreman cbn spoke with his advisers

" we know that there are several factions out there that we have not met and are not therefore able to discern their intentions. I am worried though, as word has reached me that some factions are building a secret project that only has military applications, the "Command Nexus". We must be prepared in case such factions are hostile and warlike. Send our explorers to every corner of this land to meet them in an effort to make peaceful diplomatic contact. Also, the ministry of defense should increase the number of patrols conducted around our frontiers. We hope for peace but must be prepared for those that might be aggressive."

"We've had another success in capturing more mind worm boils. Although our control over the existing mind worm boils is tenuous as best, we have no reason to fear losing control as long as we continue dedicating sufficient supplies for our worm trainers.

"Meanwhile, our forest planting programs are continuing according to schedule. We have diverted some of our Formers to Virgin Soil, our newest base, in order to clear away the abundant xenofungus and replace them with forest. Of course, we will not eliminate all fungus, for our society has been successful in harvesting the fungus and obtaining vast nutrient resources. However, we sense that Planet favors forest planting over human-made constructs like farms, solar collectors, or mines."
