PBEM error posting

Post by Yogi the Great »

Posting this now mainly for information as game 81736 now still going on,

Playing CSA email advising my turn to play (Turn 11). Game came up as usual and I played turn as usual but after hitting end turn goy error message game file not found. Went back in played again, same result. Now why it was able to find the game file for me to play the turn but could not find it when I ended turn I have no idea.

Decided to try one more time, but this time I totally exited the game, closed the program and then reopened played turn again. The good news is that after I hit end turn, as should be it came back successfully updated. The bad news was that the Yankees inflicted a lot more losses on me than the first two plays.

Anyway hopefully we won't continue to have problems or that this is a sign that the game will eventually crash for good.

Hi Yogi. I'm pretty sure I'm currently playing you in this game. All of a sudden I can't start it because I get an error message saying " the email address for this user is not confirmed". I've tried a few times turning everything off and starting again. No luck. The email address has not changed and was still getting the notification of a turn. FRUSTRATING!

If it's you apparently you got it fixed, had turn this morning. Are you Kingkian? That's how it comes up on the game. If so, great playing a bitter, bloody fight to the end.

there does at times seem to be a few error clinks in the pbem system. Not sure how our own computer issues may affect it. I was getting similar error message awhile back using the "game menu" I ended up switching to the quick start and then it worked although I have always been able to use both with no problem. My email address has not changed in quite awhile. Also while it uses the same pbem system I sometimes think whether your main registration was made on Matrix or Slitherine might make a difference. When I looked for you on Matrix it did not come up, when I looked for you on Slitherine I found it. Maybe you use different member/forum names or changed at some time? They use to require different names, with some help from them I was able to set up the same name for forums, and pbem system, a couple of years back.

anything to do with emails and or registration error's, post a note to support, as it's could just be a simple mix up or a server error, they will know either way as they can check the PBEM system etc,good luck and hope you both get it sorted so you can carry on and finish your game...
