EMPIRE4 Starting Soon

[tmj]

I've delayed starting EMPIRE4 the Tournament game, due to a number of external factors -- one of which is having a job in retirement -- I'll be restarting a new game in a couple of days.

Let's try Midnight (EDT) tommorow.

Also this year the EMPIRE machine has been subject to a number of DDOS and FTP attacks.  That's the risk I get for leaving this machine wide open on the internet.   Therefore I've been blocking the entire provider range the attack comes from.   Such users will get a "connection refused" message.  Oddly enough the day of the last presidential debate this week I got a large number of domestic FTP attacks, I presume they were to deface EMPIRE's web page, but my provider doesn't let me have a web page anymore which makes it even funnier.  (I need to change my provider again so EMPIRE can have a web page.)


To avoid refusal, use an emulator with NSVT protocol on port 1570.  If this is impossible, send me a note and I'll open up your provider's IP range back on telnet.  (Of course I'll have to know the your provider's IP range.)
