I've saved my game. I'd start a new one, but I'm afraid the same thing might happen again.
New chess variant. Looking for players to play with.

can't load after hitting machine white. So I loaded then hit machine white. I think you must load then move. What was the last move on your save

I think we need to wait until we figure out how to resume a game. I'm sure we'll be able to play sometime.
In theory it should be possible to resume a game if you go to exactly the same position. If you both saved the game, one might contain one extra move compared to the other (which was never transmitted because of the disconnect). So you would have to agree what position you want to go to, use WinBoard to load the game, putting it in Edit Game mode to step to the desired position, and use Edit->Truncate Game there, to put you back in sync, and then try to start a game by the one not being on move pressing Machine White/Black. The person that does have the move can then make one move in Edit Game mode, and press Machine Black/White.

That is what I more or less figured. Thank you Muller.
I would like to add that the boot might have messed the server up. I can connect to a pass but can not with myself. As if both boards had a different passcode. Winboard never sends a request to the other winboard. Battlechess could not even connect. Also it never says connected & waiting for player with the same pass. To tell I was connected. I had to hit connect twice. Which made a message pop up saying, You are already connected. Was curious if maybe it needed to be reset? I just tested it again, same thing.
k reconnect as 123456b, i'll see if I can load the game in.
