dynadan: hehe
Mute: how is new land auction?
dynadan: pretty good
dynadan: still going to have the same issues with latency if people are dancing
dynadan: doesn't seem to be quite as bad but i am still not sure
dynadan: old timer was the best but this new one works pretty well also

doktorbuzzo joined the game in slot 2
Mute: ok
dynadan: run up limit is about 2k
Mute: hi dok
doktorbuzzo: I would have preferred to be the famopusly discredited economist ;)
doktorbuzzo: *famously
dynadan: lol
doktorbuzzo: otherwise a total hoot
doktorbuzzo: nice work
dynadan: i need to edit once i figure out a Z to go with rodz anagram
Mute: first time hosting, might need advice from you both - but naturally I will not press button on last land selection if I am first :)
doktorbuzzo: simple: it was a typo on his birth certificate. was supposed to read zord
dynadan: thanks ...hopefully they will have it fixed soon
dynadan: lol
doktorbuzzo: thanks for hosting last game dan
doktorbuzzo: thanks for hosting this game Mute
doktorbuzzo: hosting is a breeze
Mute: welcome, Daniel San
doktorbuzzo: wait to be last button in case people wander off on breaks
dynadan: i don't know if we can trust this host
doktorbuzzo: lol
dynadan: his host rating is non existant
doktorbuzzo: yeah and way too many abandons
Mute: apparently so - I messed around with firewall rules and router port forwards, but then I removed all my firewall services and it still worked
doktorbuzzo: cool
Mute: just needed to port forward, didn't need to touch antivirus prog
doktorbuzzo: most routers are imbued with diabolical magick
doktorbuzzo: though this linksys I am using now seems well behaved & has a real honest to goodness off switch. classy!
Mute: it's a bit ambiguous when it says forward to your "local IP address" - I tried 3 different ones before finding my WLAN one
doktorbuzzo: yeah
dynadan: the site they send you too is very confusing
doktorbuzzo: or you could forward to you actual computer's IP too
doktorbuzzo: which is what I do for now
Mute: yeah the site link to each router tries to sell you software
