Civ6 PBEM3 Organizing Thread

[TheArchduke]

Bacchus said something about being able to play on the weekend, so tomorrow.

[suboptimal]

Yeah, I started it before suboptimal joined, I will check if I can still get suboptimal into the game. Else I will rehost a game with the same settings.

By the way, the seed for that game is 1 for both

It did not work I to invite suboptimal I believe, however I left the game open for now.

I rehosted a new game on PYDT (PBEM3 Test2), please log in it again so suboptimal can try it as well. I assume Bachus wont be able to join before Monday, correct?

I'll join the game when I get home from work (around 5:30 EDT).  However, if we're in turn order everyone else needs to join first -- PYDT doesn't appear to allow you to join the game in a slot other than the next available.

For the rest game you can join in any order. For the real game we need to make sure to be in turn order. For that purpose I will start the pydt game on Sunday morning and you can join then in turn order

[suboptimal]

OK...I joined the game via the website so I'm ready to go for the test.

Feel free to start the game before I join. I already tested the previous game and it worked fine.

I just saw that a new PBEM thread had been started, looks like the Tapatalk app that I've been using to read these forums has been missing this one for some reason. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading through the first two PBEMs as a general lurker, but was thinking of ded-lurking this game to get more into the mindset of a player.

Is anyone specifically looking for a dedlurker? I do also have the game installed and have completed some of the adventures that Sulla has posted so I can pitch in for a couple of turns here and there if people are unable to make them.

Played my turn on test1 - worked fine

joined game 2.

For me it looks like working ok.

[Kaiser]

for me too, Ichabod had the good idea to enter a password for his turns, which I will do as well and already did for the second test game. The turn for that has been passed to suboptimal.
if you are using the windows client, you can just click on your highlighted turn icon and the game will start, that is very convenient

[suboptimal]

OK, I was able to download and play the turn using the client.  However, on uploading the turn I got the error message "Incorrect player turn in save file".  I'm not sure if this is related to the email I got from PYDT stating that "wgh" had surrendered from the game or if I've done something wrong. 

After I hit "Next Turn" I get a dialog box titled "wgh" that has a box for a password and the Save Game button enabled (Start Turn is disabled).  I've tried the following after hitting next turn:

- hit the save game button in the dialog box, game exits to MP room.  Exit, upload via website, get error.
- go to the menu in the upper right, hit save game.  Game exits to MP room.  Exit, upload via website, get error.

Regarding the turn password, I didn't have an option to enter one at the start of my turn.  At the end of my turn there was a password box but with the name not mine at the top I wasn't sure if that was when to do it.  Any pointers as to when/where in the process I enter a password?
