    I don't play online, but I don't think that's how it works. I am probably wrong, but just wanted to check in so you know someone hears you.

    @black_elk Yes, indeed, It looks to me like a guy who took care of paying for space on a server, another who made TripleA's website and another who busy setting up the forum for a community that must have been very active at one time. But there, I have the impression, as I said, that the space on the server has been renewed, for 5 years for example, with the donations received at the time, but that the person who paid does not even come to this forum anymore, that the person who took care of the website does not take care of it anymore, and that the person who created this forum and who was supposed to be in charge at the beginning does not take care of it either . Otherwise, once all that is in place, it's easy to leave it like that, without doing anything and it doesn't require any more work. And who knows, maybe the big guy responsible for all of this is dead and hasn't made arrangements for someone to take over. All assumptions are good. Otherwise, the last time @LaFayette was here was 20 days ago and for @PRASTLE it was 5 months. Here below for the other moderators (apart from @Panther) that I found based on the first 24 Top posters of the forum - and it would surprise me a lot if there were other moderators than these further down the list. As we can see we see that this site is declining and that's why I really feel that one day like this, without warning, this site will be offline because the person who pays for the domain name will not have renewed it, or that the space on the server will not have been paid for. Given the few people who frequent the forum (the fact that it's summer doesn't change that much in my opinion), I would be surprised if this site is profitable - unlike its beginnings. Therefore, it would be surprising if a manager - who doesn't seem to visit this forum anymore - decides to pay out of pocket for the loss of earnings to keep this site online. In short, I believe that what the translation I did, well, I did it for nothing... Here is the list of moderators and their last presence on this forum: @REDRUM - 23 HOURS AGO @UBERNAUT - 11 days ago @WIRKEY - 12 DAYS AGO @GENERAL_ZOD - A MONTH AGO @CERNEL - 3 MONTHS AGO @ROIEX - 3 MONTHS AGO @SILVERBULLET - 4 MONTHS AGO @PRASTLE - 5 MONTHS AGO @HEPPS - 4 JUN 2021 @CRAZYG - 14 JUN 2021 @FROSTION - 2 APR 2022

    @shaiboo8 said in Help with Windows 10 Bot: Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I'm also looking for information on hosting a bot on Windows 10. It seems like you've made some progress, so any insights would be appreciated! By the way, I recently made the switch from Mac to Windows, and I've found the Windows key Reddit sub to be a helpful resource for Windows-related tips and tricks. They might have some guidance on hosting bots or configuring the files you mentioned. If anyone else has experience with hosting bots on Windows 10, please chime in and share your knowledge. Let's help each other out!

    @interestedparty said in Rule clarification: Allied Units in Russia: @rogercooper perhaps. But, there Germans/Russians are in a stalemate. US has a huge naval fleet near Australia. Japan destroyed China, but is only thinly holds it. India has a large stack of Infantry in Burma. UK has 2 tanks and 3 mech infantry in Novosibirsk. With no danger from Germany, they can cross the border into Kansu, if the rules allow it. As the Japanese player, I had not put any troops to guard the Russian border, beyond the 1 Japanese infantry in each territory. So it looks like a good use of UK troops to invade. You could add a territory restriction to prevent the British from entering Siberia unless Russia and Japan are at war. However, in the situation described, the British would be better off focusing on Germany than intervening in China.

    @martymoose IIRC a savegame always includes the game data of the map version it was created for the first time. So changes occurring in later map versions will be ignored. So savegames are not updated to current map/engine versions.

    @ojdrew By the way: As an (uncomfortable) workaround you can manually save the game and post the turn summary and the savegame file to the respective forum thread.

    When you have a new phone you need to transfer the auth-details from your old to the new phone. Google Auth has a routine for that. Anyway, let's do the same procedure as last time.

    Edit 4
    Well actually it won't let me delete it 🙂

    So yea follow the prompts so they can tell who you are and then you create a new token by going to your personal git avatar and

    Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens

    Be real deliberate when you do the token. If you're in a hurry just wait and do it some other time 🙂
