it won't work for me i fear :( Don't think I can handle a new game at the moment anyway... four is quite a lot.

I'm not sure if you can transfer an existing pbem game to a PitBoss.

As for playing the turns you do that with the civ4 game itself.

two questions:
1) Can you move a game started without Pitboss on to pitboss (Dictator's could do with it!)
2) Do you have to connect through the piboss application or can you upload your turns through a web browser? Because while away with work, I can't connect my laptop direct to internet, I play the turns on it, then transfer them by USB key to my work machine for upload.

Its for letting people play Civ4 games in a manner like the pbem games, but rather than having to wait for everyone to complete their turn you have a set amount of time in which to submit them.
ie. the turns are done once a day regardless.

Well, I don't know how pitboss runs or what the hell it does, so I dunno :)

I was talking to Fairy from the Priests of Pain who help admin the SmartGaming servers about the possibility of getting them to run a Civ4 PitBoss server.
And it seems they are prepared to do so.
So the next question is who's up for it and what should we run on it ?
