My friend and I have been playing this game for a few weeks now, and we were getting very close to the end when it stared to drop one of us at the beginning of the turn.

I'm the host (justo) and I usually see the waiting for friend pop-up then he gets dropped.

We play over DSL with updated Win XP systems and both have 512 RAM. Anyone have ideas why the game is dropping one of us?

Skycutter, if the other PC can handle it, you may want to try hosting the game on that one. That worked in a similar situation with my brother and I.

Good luck!

It's probably some incompatibility between hardware and XP (or just hardware). Is your hardware listed on the XP "good" list? I have a home-grown system and have had very few problems.

My latest "life quote" -
It is what it is ...

"Censorship does not interfere with the constitutional rights of every American to sit alone in a dark room in the nude and cuss. There are realistic taboos, especially regarding political comments. Our leaders were not elected to be tittered at. For example, we're allowed to say Ronald Reagan is a lousy actor, but we're not allowed to say he's a lousy governor-which is ridiculous. We know he's a good actor. And we're not allowed to make fun of President 'Johnston'. But if we praise him, who would believe it?" - Pat Paulsen

I think XP can be very picky. A couple of my friends have it without many (if any) problems. Its been a crashup-derby on mine as well as a couple others I've spoken to.

I think its probably the hardware compatibility. All my hardware is big name products, so I don't know why it would have any problems, but it does.

Maybe its just Gremlins.
