Well I'm down to play this afternoon if anyone here is down. I've been messing with this all these lan programs but I can't figure any of it out.

I'm definitely down, if someone can get something going. I can try that gameranger thing again, I guess. Throwing up a b12test room, pass dwarf, to see if it works.

I'll leave the room on gameranger up from now until about midnight, CST (GMT -7), unless someone else gets something working or I can get confirmation it's not working. Then it'll be trying something else :P

Something about this game makes me wonder why God lets it exist.

Edit: At least tentative functionality! Joe's in the lan lobby with me, waiting for the game to DL. Soon, to see if in-game works!
E2: Seems to work! Managed to get through a game without massive lag or crashes or whathaveyou. Anyone else interested?
E3: The above ^, ran a short game of an MtG map, jumped poor joe with a hoard of flyers after a bit.

I'm now definitely taking links for maps folks would be interested in playing.

Just got out of an engaging game of "Founders of the North" with Frumple. GameRanger seems to work quite well without the hassle of setting up Hamachi or having to use battle.net, so there is that too.

... if you can save me the trouble of having to figure out how to host via hamachi, I'd join you there. Could see about switching over anyway, but... Gameranger's been pretty painless, so far.

E: I'm keeping the room up for another two hours or so, though, if you wanna' give GR another try. Just in case :P

Ah, some folks are. S'just that I can't, because while I've got the game CDs, the cases with the CD keys have been lost for years, now. It'd actually cost less to buy new CDs than it would to send m'old ones in to get new keys and I can't afford it either way anyway, so Bnet is currently out of my reach.

You can probably set up some time with the Bnet enabled folks to run a few rounds, I just can't join in or host for yeh ;)

E: Closing down for the night about 40 min early, but yeah. If we can get some times from folks able to use not!Bnet, I can probably get some hosting in, if there's interest.

... Bliz doesn't offer that (near as I could tell, anyway), though sending the old CD in to get processed and getting a new key from them, is 10$... plus shipping. If I was going in for one, I'd be going in for both (Since there's two functioning CDs sitting at the foot of my bed, now, both RoC and FT.), and that'd be a flat 20+, which I can't really afford to spend on anything but food and gas, right now. Plus, yanno', there's places selling the battlechest for around 20 bucks. Christmas money's probably buying a new car battery, ha.

Doesn't help that I'm pretty vehemently opposed to buying something I already own, especially if the money's not going to the actual maker :P

... and I don't want to give Bliz any more money anyway. So, moral of the story, until I get around to going back to the house the CD case is probably hiding in, it's not-bnet for me! A beautiful tale of unbeauty. It's also two o'clock, and I'm both tired and rambly.

How do I find this room in Gameranger? There's nothing in "Hosted chat rooms".
