It's a crime against nature. Do you hold nothing sacred?

I feel very disoriented after reading that.

I received turn 0 but I didn't get turn 1. I'll pull it off the site but this is happening more often and to multiple players. Is there an issue with the turns going out?

I have been fortunate to receive all of my turns, but there does appear to be some email issues for some players. This is only a serious issue for the final turn, but I believe some folks never got their final turn for 3743.

I was able to successfully get mine.

Over the years, we've seen that the common denominator of not receiving turns is due to the player's email provider. Players who have gmail accounts encounter very few issues, if any, in receiving turns and we've advised players several times to use gmail instead (as well as google chrome browser for entering orders, which also has the least amount of problems).

Lord Garth, who has encountered several issues in receiving turns, has an AOL account.

The problem is not on our end. We send out the turns as we normally do. Even with that last turn debacle.

That being said, the last turn issue however may be resolved to a certain extent on our end because we save the game files in an archive when the game finishes (and the kingdom turn report file may have moved to the archive directory if the player's email provider is slow to respond to our server's request to accept it). I've tried adding delays and other countermeasures regarding moving the server files to help with timing issues of our server with the player's email provider (with server lag, network connectivity, and such) but the problem persists.

A redesign of the game's closing procedures (cleaning up the server files, SQL database, Valhalla records, etc.) could be looked into by the new owner to help improve the situation of the various email provider companies and their policies. Rick suggested to have another website where players may continue to access their game files for weeks after a game finishes, but that would require creating another website (like Valhalla, Game Queue, etc.), which is a certain amount of work if the developer has time. Multiple ways to go about the internet delays and server lag with other providers, we'll see what the new owner(s) will do... :>
