You should PM PaulH513, he runs a great MP setup with some really nice people.

I played with Paul the other week, not had chance since. There were only the two of us but he said there are usually more.

What time in GMT do you play if you're down under?

Glad to see that you got your MP issues sorted out

What was the problem?

Last night we had 6 English speaking players online: 2 Americans, 1 Canadian and 3 Brits ( with their funny accents )

We are on every day at 7 or 8 GMT with new and challenging maps.

The only mod we use is the Official GWX No Land Unit Mod which can be D/L from our web site http://comsubcommand.spruz.com/
We use Teamspeak 3 with no PW.

This mod given to us by the Great and Powerful Jimbuna greatly reduces the load time of the game and ensures that only the units that the map maker places are in the game and not some scripted units that can make things go horribly wrong.

Just remember not to have this mod enabled in your career or you will find that there are no ships anywhere to be found!

I did that one time and sailed into Portsmouth, found nothing...so I went fishing and caught nothing but a cold.

May sound funny but we invented it (and is this the first occasion in history where US haven't ridiculed Canucks?)
And we invented time, obviously it never occurred before. But I understand that America isn't happy with this and wants to change it

7 or 8 GMT is probably about 4 - 5 in the morning in Oz, are there no MP games down under, there are quite a few members here?

What are the Americans trying to change?

There was a report a few years back (can't seem to find it now ) that the whole time-system was wrong, and that the US was going to try to lead a 'time revolution' and do away with current timezones. Just tried quick search but there is so much on time I can't spot it, but it was a more reputable source than many stories...

No offence meant to anyone

You'll have to wait until I get paid before I can send you another cheque/bribe

Sad part of MP is that all have to be at the same setup/mod level.
Try to find a vanilla 1.4 arena somedays.
