Host timed out errors
« on: June 17, 2005, 06:36:04 PM »
Cant log in to the game at all. Trying for a couple of hours so far. Nothing but "host timed out" message. No problems getting anywhere else on the net.  Alternate route doesnt work.
Pingplotter shows hops all over the place or destination unreachable.  Why does this always happen on fridays?

that wouldn't by chance coincide with ur warping?  Seen u warp on more than one occasion badly,  Like ur 110 the other day that broke up on the deck and tunnel dug on my airfield.  Just wondering even after u do get in MA ur connect still fuzzy.

Who me warpy?

I doubt the two are related. Normally I have no difficulties getting to the MA. However I always get people complaining that I am warpy, at least once daily and I get accused of cheating at least once a week it seems. The warpiness happens because I use Sattelite DSL ( DirecWay) as my internet provider and there is lag time between my computer and the satellite, the satellite to their hub, their hub to HTC, and then back again. My Frame rates are always low, typically 12 or less, and ping rates are 700 to 1200 on a good day. I use Direcway because I have no other options, I live in a rural area where no cable or even normal speed dialups exist. I've talked to Skuzzy and his response was " All bets are off" when he learned that I use satellite DSL because there is nothing that can be done about it.

I was much less warpy before the last update on the stupid trees, I thought this was a war game not a horticulture game lol. Anyways,  if I am warpy chase someone else :D
