Revised Tournament of Champions (ToC 15) "Arctic Convoy"
-
@brxxx Whoever wins the random bid process bids first. The other player either a) accepts that bid, or b) bids lower. They cannot bid the same. It goes back and forth until one person accepts the other's bid.

@TangoRomeo @prastle @bayder So, it's not the Martic Dice server I have a problem with, it's the Login and Password for Play By Email. Was there a default login and password assigned to the game that my opponent, @Handsome, and I are unaware of? Or is there actually a login and password? My opponent does not remember putting one in.
Sorry for the hassle, I'm sure there's a tutorial somewhere that I haven't been able to find...
Hopefully this will only needed to be sorted out this once.
@TangoRomeo This only happens if you select the play by email as a provider vs. remaining disabled. I personally always leave this disabled. I can't recall for sure, but I think you can play a file where it's enabled without logging into it...you can still roll through MARTI and send the file manually.
-
@TangoRomeo @ubernaut @oppositeof Do either of you guy know how to solve this problem?
-
@TangoRomeo you need to have an account on the marti server there is no password it just needs to be a verified email. the password stuff is only if you want triplea to login to your gmail or triplea forum account.
-
@ubernaut So, my opponent sent me a file. I open it up in the "start PBEM game..." section. But then it asks me for a login and password in the Play by Email section. It won't let me "play" unless I enter that correctly. Did my opponent enter a login and password I don't know of?
-
@TangoRomeo did you select the disable menu item next to the provider?
-
@ubernaut No, should I? and just play that way?
-
@TangoRomeo yes as i just said that's only if you want triplea logging into your account i personally do not. Some people have dedicated email accounts for triplea in that case i see no reason why you wouldn't.
-
@ubernaut Right. I made an aaa account (aaatangoromeo@gmail.com) for this purpose. However, even when I enter that info, with proper password it gives me an error "unable to send email, check SMTP server credentials...Username and Password not accepted..."
-
@ubernaut @bayder Sorry about this guys. I know it's probably pretty simple. Here's the file. I think I just "disable PBE" provider correct?
The challenge I had was that the PBE option automatically opened up with mine and my opponent info in it and I didn't want to change anything he had already set up.

@TangoRomeo you need to select your provider for email either Hotmail or Gmail
-
@prastle Yes, that is the page I get. However, when I load the gamefile from @Handsome the Login and Password are blank. I enter my aaatangoromeo@gmail.com and correct password for that account and it gives me and error "unable to send email, check SMTP server credentials...Username and Password not accepted..."
-
@TangoRomeo and you have selected gmail as the provider?

@TangoRomeo
I don't actually know what you intend to do, but the nature of Play by Email is to send the savegame to your opponent by email once you ended your turn. For this you need to configure TripleA to act as an Email-program, that means you must enter your email account details here:
Provider is Generic SMTP or something preconfigured depending on your mail provider.
Subject is anything referring to your game, e.g. the Topic Id.
To is your opponent's mail address - and only his!
Login is your login you have once set up with your email provider to access your mail account.
Password is your password you have set up with your email provider to access your mail account.
Host and Port are details provided by your email provider for sending emails.So be sure to have that configured correctly according to what you want to do.

Hello kind people,
today epinikions allies won the first round vs chewbalubas axis. The 6 bid was placed as 2 inf, 1 in ukraine and 1 in west russia. Russia really missed a good round 1 with only 4inf, art, arm and aa left in west russia and 1 arm in ukr. so chews germany rushed to the east with an air supported attack on west russia and stacked 5inf and 5 arm in ukr. For this germany skipped most sea battles, so there was a big uk navy left and moved into the med. Allies really went full into europe next rounds and surrounded germ. At the start of round 6 germany was down to only a last stack in berlin and chew conceded. Thanks for the exiting game chew and good luck for your tournament.

I think I had to allow less secure apps a while back to make it work myself. I had to fiddle a bit before the setting worked. Gmail also seems to make it hard to find the right setting, changing the placement for the options from time to time.
