New European webtiles server: lantea

[Turukano]

Since CDO webtiles has been shut down many European players hope for a new webtiles server.

Immediately after 0.12 tournament lantea has started (like CDO it's located in Germany) and things seem to be in progress. Although actually there's no bot providing information to CAO scoring tables trunk games already can be played there. Edit: 0.12 games, not trunk, can be played there (see below).

Thanks for starting the server!

Dumping games on lantea results in the message
Char dumped to './rcs/[playername]/[playername].txt'.

Where can I find this dump? I looked e.g. for
crawl.lantea.net:8080/.rcs/[playername]/[playername].txt
but this doesn't work.

Does anybody have more information about the progress on lantea - will 0.12 games be possible, will scores be counted etc.?

It should be noted: lantea isn't an official server at this stage, someone in the community is setting it up, but there is a reason there has been no official announcement regarding it at this stage.

Yes, of course.

However, as it is the only way for me to play webtiles online, any additional information about lantea is welcome.

Sorry to disappoint you - at the current stage it is 0.12 - not trunk. I've been lazy with the labeling.

Anyway - I will be setting it up properly (with TV and all that) soon. Please have some patience, I'm currently a bit busy in real life (exams coming up and I have other things to do as well!).

We will also at some point set up a donation-app on the bottom of the page. It will show how much of our monthly expenses have been covered and how much they in fact are. The server will remain online regardless of whether or not the monthly expenses get covered!

Edit 2: disregard (the now removed) previous edit. Go play some 0.12 on the server - but don't expect that it will be stored. The server will be mercilessly taken down on Thursday or Friday (most likely the latter) and fixed up so that it can be officially a part of the community.

Will it be possible to continue ongoing games after lantea has been restarted? This would be nice - in case it's doable for you without too much effort.

Lantea is now an official server, recognised by Sequell, the scoring pages, etc. Many thanks to Aleksi and TZer0!
