Hi all

does anyone knows when circus-maximus is coming back?

What about other sites that hosts games? Any new ones?

Thanks

If you're hoping for a secret cabal of host providers with secret information about the situation at CM, I must disappoint you, there's no such thing that I'm aware of :smile:

I'm not sure what exactly the problem at CM is. If it's to get the host to run, the PlanetsCentral server is able to run PHost games automatically and still has plenty capacity. (Just my backup disk is getting full.)

I would play here but I believe all games are PHost? If THost games could be hosted here I would be interested for sure.

I'm not sure what's happening with CM either. It's been 9 months since it went down.

That's right. This server is running on Linux. Using THost would require a DOS emulator. It's not impossible, but needs quite some work, in particular, because THost and PHost are configured in completely different ways.

The closest for THost fans would be the Titan games, which have pretty much all complex PHost features turned off.
