Hi all,
I use LongTurn forum to start a emergency chat about GreatTurn games.
Since last friday, we had some problems, and the server was almost unreachable. CivLand site and forum also have been unreachable. Now it looks the web part came back, but CivLand lost players and matches data.
So, I mirror a discussion which I started in the CivLand forum. Here it is.

Servers down again!!!!

Since friday there's something wrong.
I missed a turn in both GT01 and GT02 and I can tell that many players are idling.
Moreover, civland and its forum have been offline. Now they are back (it seems), althou it looks like GreatTurn info (players, matches etc.) is unavailable.
I will "mirror" this talk in LongTurn forum.
Anyway, I propose to STOP all games till a solution is find. There are wars going on in both my games, and we can't just let the game going on when many players (as I) want to resume from friday.
At least we have to pause them and talk about it.
Please Davide stop the servers and email everybody about this chat.
Thanks.

Well Monami, it looks like GT is down for good. :(

Civland forums have been down for almost 5 days, and all currently running GT games (GT08, GT09, GT10-Hex, and GT11 (Game of Thrones)) are all gone.

What's worse, absolutely nothing from Davide. I've emailed him today, asking if he's alright, but some members of the community seem to think he had become disillusioned by the whole enterprise. Others speculated that there's a family crisis.

In any event, I'm willing to give LT a try, so I've joined the forums and have joined up with LT33 and the latest LTeX (as there are no currently running LTeX games that I can see).

At least I made some great friends during the last couple of years on Davide's GT. I count you as one of them.

Cheers!

Will do, Kryon !

There are already some here, but whenever I come across any others I'll try to bring them along :)

I sent mails to some of my friends, two RL who I drawn to Greatturn, and one who I met there. I'm afraid I don't have other contacts.
