I think you need to press the key Pause in your keyborad though I not really sure. If xenu don't play I can do it in like an hour.

Yes, Pause key on keyboard. My laptop keyboard does not have a Pause key, but the On Screen Keyboard works too (at least for Windows).

I'm going to play the turn in a few minutes. I have family staying over for a few days so my normal availability is slightly different from normal. But thanks, got it for now.

Game down.

Little point in saying this since a meteor is probably headed for my computer as we speak, but since some of the games needed reloads anyways I went ahead and got server 1.5 up and running. It's pretty fancy: renewable ergonomic stand (monitor set on cardboard box), superior ventilation (case door removed), and extra-quick-release drive bay (hard drive sat on bare metal case chassis).

This isn't a permanent solution, but it does have about twice the performance and half the hardware age of the old server, and perhaps more importantly since it doesn't need to be remoted into it's less susceptible to VNC crashes necessitating a restart.

Anyways, game is reloaded to WilliamLP's login, ~23:00 on the clock. I think I have the configuration settings right, but it's certainly possible I missed something. If that's the case I'll fix it tomorrow.

Just to keep things on the up and up, I accidentally clicked on WilliamLP's thread, backed out immediately, and didn't see anything. Sorry!

There appears to be a clear sky power outage at my house. It seems like it's only a couple of blocks, so I doubt it will take long to resolve, but I may need a pause.

Paused with around 5h left on the clock.

Scratch that, apparently a local construction project messed up some power lines and it could tkae upwards of one week to fix. I'll start looking for a sub I guess.

I'm really sorry for the delay.

You might not have power for a week??
