Aaargh, did I find this page too late? I would love to join you guys if that is still possible?
My preference would be Louis XIV, which I see hasn't been taken by anyone, so it would add more diversity to the game...
History: I'm playing in 1 local, amongst friends, PBEM with 6 players Also, 1 local PB with 4 players.
I can log on at least morning and evening (local SA time) during the week and more over weekends.

Sorry for the glitch. I think I've got things fixed. Try again pls.
Firfox, hang around for a while. Somebody may get a prison sentence or something like that and we might need a sub.

uhhhh... I had a couple of problems... first thing is that the first letter of the password shouldn't be capitalised, as specified in the email.
But the big issue is that I get this message when trying to connect:
"The version of our critical game files do not match out host's. Cannot join game"
I'm running Warlords, and I haved used the in game option of checking for updates and none are available... am I missing something?

Same "wrong version" here. Tried regular Civ4 in case it wasn't actually Warlords, but got the same error. What version should we be on?

Warlords should be version 2.0.0.0, I think...
Do you have a default mod loading in you config - like the HOF mod or something?

Start Warlords, click "Advanced", click "About this mod" and it shows:
Build version: 2.0.0.0 Mod name: None

OK, but we still may have a glitch or two, hope not; but this isn't exactly user friendly.
As a side note, it's pretty sad that this is made possible by a user who fixed the Firaxis issued PitBoss especially after a patch.
BTW, I told you to use ctrl-D for e-mail notification. That was wrong, should be Alt-D

I just IP'd in. Made my moves. Hit enter. It just sits there, so I clicked on exit to main menu.
Assuming that means I just played it correctly right?

We definately need to get this on civ stats. Then we can cofirm who is moving and who is not, and that our moves worked.
I changed to the Visic empire as also to help there be fewer english empires.

Yep this is how you play your turn, to confirm that you have played your turn a little white star appers next to your name! When i left only hannibal and russia were yet to play. If you finish your turns please remember to hit enter (make sure you see the white star) Anyway i played my turn, if you guys see somsone else logged in as me dont panic, i might not be able to play my turns some days and i definatly wount be able to play them for like 7 week in january so someone else will! GL all, lets make it a good one ;D
