Mutiplayer and firewalls

A quick question for your programmers. I'd like to bring the game to work on my laptop so I can knock out some turns during lunch. What TCP port(s) does the multiplayer engine use?

The company firewall here has everything locked down tighter than a... um... a... Macedonian phalanx frontage... :wink:

I had a quick look at your PBEM helper app which seems to use Port 80 but OTOH is not giving me the a list of waiting turns.

thanks

Tony

I suggest you repost this to the technical support forum. Tech support are very unlikely to read the tournaments page.
