So more people can join.

But... the Redemption CCG network can hold up to 50 people.

That's right, and we're not full yet, so let's all stay together at least until we have filled it up.  It just takes longer to scroll if we are all in a bunch of different networks.  I have really enjoyed being able to turn on Hamachi and see all the people who are on at once.  It has made getting games started much easier

Well what do you know, we're getting full.  There are some people who have multiple accounts on the Redemption CCG network however, so I would request that you remove all but one per person.  That will make more room for additional people who want to play.

If people don't remove their own duplicate accounts then I'll probably have to do it myself.  But I don't know which one you'd most like to keep on there, so please do it yourself first

when you see me on could you remove the profile I'm not on? I can't figure out how and so far1person couldn't join...RED

I've got two, but one's for my laptop which I use about half the time I play.

I understand, and that is a good reason.  However, I still request that you remove one of them so that someone can join who doesn't have a spot at all.

Done.  Thanks for your support, and opening a new spot for Red or whoever gets it first

Thanks for this Prof!  My brother is wanting in on the "big group" too, and is locked out to a couple smaller groups.  I will try to get him in first (for selfish reasons).

Duplicate accounts have been cleared, and there are now 5 new spots available in the main Hamachi network.  Please come join us

group:   Redemption CCG
pw:       Cactus

It's full again

I see it as 7 empty spots....

It has to do with your license. If oh can't join you don't have a commercial license for hamachi.

I see that there should be 7 open spots too but he's not the first person to report that it still says it's full when he tries to join.  I wonder if the owner/admin (Prof Underwood) needs to do something to free up the spaces or maybe contact Hamachi support to have them do it?

Funny you should mention that   I actually just heard back from Hamachi support and here's the scoop.  Non-commercial (read: free) users like all of us were only allowed to have up to 16 members.  Then a few months ago, they changed the rules and allowed non-commercial users to have up to 50 people in their group.  It was during this time that I created our unifying group and everyone joined.

Unfortunately they had another change of heart and decided to return to their old limit of 16 people.  That is why all new networks that people make will be limited to that number.  Also our main group is now limited (sort of) to that number.  That means that no one else will be able to join it.  However, thankfully the people who are already in it are able to continue being in it.  So basically if you are a part of the main network then you are getting to enjoy something that no longer is available.

If you are not a part of the main network, then you'll just have to join some other smaller networks or make your own.  I also did a bit of looking into whether there were some other alternative programs to Hamachi that would not have limits on the number of people in a group.  Unfortunately I am a bit out of my league there.  I did find a few options, but I couldn't tell if they would work.  Hopefully someone else could look into this who knows more than I do about these sorts of things.

Gabe (and a few others like him) is probably one of the top 10 reasons why I love Redemption.  And that's even after being destroyed by him

hence the giant smiley. we didn't get to meet in t1 though, or booster... I think he's frightened
