Pitboss is a cool dedicated server tool that 2K include in the game. It allows someone to setup a permanent running Civ IV server that players can connect and disconnect from freely. While disconnected the CPU takes control of your Civ if the other players choose to continue. I was exagerating a bit about the 1 person leaving thing.. it didn't actually effect us in the slightest with one person leaving so I don't know how that popped into my mind.Commando wrote:Never heard of PitBoss before, and I don't think I've even played Civ IV despite owning it (same goes for Civ V, though I have at least played Civ III!), but it sounds good to me. How did one person bring the system down though?
On another note - QuietPC are running a Rock Band Tournament! Who's in? Oh, and they're also running a Frozen Synapse tournament apparently, if you're interested in that.
I'll be in for the Rock Band tournament! And the frozen tournament I've already opted into.
My brother and I will be arriving by train. All of which take 4 hours to get to Telford! We have arrival times starting from 13:51 (earliest we will leave is 09:52) and then every hour after so if you would like to time your arrival with ours perhaps?Seppy wrote:What time are people arriving on thursday?
