PBEM++ won't open

Post by havoc1371 »

I try to open PBEM++ today in World at War and also American Civil War and all I get is the Windows spinning circle endlessly and it never opens. I'm forced to close the games using Task Manager.

Same here. Must be a server problem, it's not the first time that the PBEM server is down.

Sadly yes. Frustrating when this happens. I suspect everyone will be similarly affected.

Longest PBEM loss of connection I can ever remember in years. Starting to get anxious.

as I'm playing both of you, that is just my way of psychological warfare.

But yeah, taking pretty long. Especially uploading.

Sounds like a server issue for sure, if it persists further into today please let me know.
