			<description>&#60;p&#62;Whiterabbit.....you said, &#34;The page that you are presented with should say account status unregistered. Below this are four choices. The second one says:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Redeemable booster packs&#34; &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Yes, that's the page I'm going to but mine comes up differently. The first option says Free Boosters 2 of 3 and there's a Redeem button (it did say 3of 3 but I've redeemed one). The second option says Redeemable Booster Packs, but underneth that it says &#34;No available packs&#34;, and the only thing to click on is the Buy boosters button. (I'll email you a screenshot).
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Wabbit .. yes, the Nvidia driver is relatively new: 12 December 2007, version 169.21.  You can download it &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_169.21_whql.html&#34;&#62;here&#60;/a&#62;.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;As for the temp files, they were deleted before every reboot..sigh..and the entire network was reconfigured/reinstalled yesterday.  Still no joy.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;As for knowing what I'm doing ..grin..that depends on the level of chemo fog on any given day.  I may have taught a skill yesterday that I simply cannot grasp today.  Never can tell.  It's a lot like early stages of Alzheimer's.  On the bright side:  every day's experiences are brand new!

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Try cleaning out all your internet temp files.  Just right click on your internet browsers icon and select internet properties.  I'd delete everything (unless you want to keep some of the cookies)  You can be selective.  Judging by your post and the hardware you have I'm sure you know what youtr doing anyway.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Also try turning off your modem and re booting it (leave for a couple of minutes before turning the power back on. Then try re connecting.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I hope these suggestions help as the game is definitely worth some time.  Hopefully if you've managed to register you'll be able to troubleshoot after the giveaway.  The admins from SAGA have said theres a life time support with this game and that anyone having problems will be supported.&#60;/p&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Error message the same for 2 days: timeout trying to connect to server.  If I ignore message, patcher will load, files will install and then splash screen shuts itself off..back to desktop. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Error repeats with every attempt.  Patch repeats with every attempt.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Nvidia driver updated today (Nvidia GeForce8800GT on this XP machine with 2G memory); haven't dared try it on new machines). Restart machine; error repeats. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Monitor freq added to Saga; machine restarted; error repeats.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Manually downloaded and installed patches; restart machine; error repeats.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Reinstalled game; restart machine; error repeats.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Network connections refreshed and double/triple-checked. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Firewall, anti-spyware and anti-virus all off for these attempts (yeah, gotta live dangerously once in a while..it's good for the soul).  Off, because UDP external ports were given (19691-19701) but my DSL modem demands an internal port also; unable to locate information on developer's site or GAoTD forums.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I even registered/purchased the game and still am unable to get the thing to play.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Perhaps increase timeout to infinity?  Been years since I tried that one and doubt chemo-fog will clear long enough for me to remember how to do it.  Could really use some suggestions on troubleshooting.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi Buckleysmom, follow the link below to the login page:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;https://www.playsaga.com/login.php&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;https://www.playsaga.com/login.php&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;then log in.  The page that you are presented with should say account status unregistered.  Below this are four choices.  The second one says:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Redeemable booster packs &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Click on this and it will take you to the page where you can download all ten, though you have to do it one at a time. Each booster pack should contain 10 cards.  Click on the button that says &#60;strong&#62;Redeem&#60;/strong&#62;  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The page that it takes you to has three buttons to the middle right of the page that say auto arrange, reveal all and redeem another. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Your first boosters should be on the page, click on auto arrange to spread them out, then reveal all to see what you have, then click on redeem another, continue until you've redeemed all ten packs. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;You will be able to utilize these units later on when you start to build your land armies.  Not all of them can be used at the beginning as you can only have 200 units to manage at the beginning of the game, though you can customize your armies, once you can afford to keep them. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The units can be utilized/activated by clicking on the main building in your city which brings up a small window. Click on the third icon to manage your units. I'm not able to access the game at this time as the servers are down, so can't describe exactly what the icon looks like; the first one is to manage the peasants in your nation.  Clicking on that one enables you to allocate the ones you have (which is 10 to start) to specific tasks such as building or farming, though farming wont be available until you've build a farm.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;There is a button that opens up a menu which shows you all the units you've amassed from the ten booster packs, of which there are 100 (10x10), though some units such as the archers and pike men will have been repeated three or four times as these are your basic army units that you'll need more than one units worth (I unit of human pikemen for example is equivalent to 25 men, but if you select elven archers then there will only be 6 men (or women, lol) Though before you start to develop your standing army,  you need to develop your nation so that you can feed and train your armies.  :)

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Funky....I don't get it, where exactly are you seeing this option to redeem 10 booster packs? Is it online on the Buy Boosters tab? That's where I found mine but it only says 3 are available. I redeem the first one and when I try to redeem the next one it says, &#34;Error - Already Has Booster today!&#34; I discovered I could get the next pack the next day, but still there are only 3 packs available.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I've gone through the first part of the tutorial and even did some &#34;fighting&#34; in my nation, but this booster pack thing is driving me crazy.....UGH!
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

			<description>&#60;p&#62;whitemist-&#60;br /&#62;
read my above post. what you see are 10 cards from 1 pack. there are 9 more packs to redeem. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;you can't enter the game from here, you must load and launch from your computer/desktop. i continue to get the patch update page, but after i updated once, i just ignored it and hit launch when ready. when you login and enter the game the first time (after you have your booster packs) you will go through a tutorial. it is very confusing, at least it was for me. it assumes you know some basic things, which i did not know-even after reading all the info there was to read. after the basic tutorial, you can start to build your nation. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;that is as far as i got. i built and named my nation, designed my flag and had to quit for the night before i built my army.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;hope this helps a little.&#60;br /&#62;
:D

			<description>&#60;p&#62;i also redeemed all my booster packs at once (actually one at a time). i redeemed pack, sorted and revealed them all, then hit redeem pack again and repeated the process until the redeem button was gone.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;i must say it is very confusing to start this game, it's been trial and error to figure this all out.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;good luck, all.&#60;br /&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I got the the page asking me to pay and it said 10 booster packs....so I clicked on it. That's probably what WR did, I'm assuming.  All 10 came up on another page, and it says double click to reveal or reveal all.  But now what? And what do they mean? I turned over 1 and it gave me an archer. But how to get into the game from here, and where will the booster cards go?  This is more work than it was to do LOTR Return to Middle Earth. I just don't know what to do now, and there is only 6h and 57m to go in today. I was hoping to start setting things up today.

Ok, try this link &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.playsaga.com/login.php&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;https://www.playsaga.com/login.php&#60;/a&#62;&#60;br /&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Did what you said, and these are the pages I got  &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.playsaga.com/mn_buyboosters.php&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;https://www.playsaga.com/mn_buyboosters.php&#60;/a&#62;                                   • MAINTENANCE COMPLETED •&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;4 April 2008&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Update: Maintenance is now complete!&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;We've decided to perform an unscheduled maintenance to the servers today. While this may have been an inconvenience to many of you we hope you'll understand why we did. This update is a small fix which we hope will resolve many big issues. While we can't declare victory yet we've managed to eliminate a few key crash issues internally at our offices. We're crossing our fingers that the changes will result in the client being far more stable when leaving battles for all users. Among the potential fixes are:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Adjusted the manner in which we manage memory within SAGA - memory should now be less fragmented and significantly more efficient in most cases.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Potentially resolved a longstanding issue which could cause battles to crash at the portal.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Potentially resolved an issue which could cause battles to crash when trying to return to domain mode (also known as the after survey crash).&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Units can now be sent properly to and from the safe-land territories.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Fixed another issue regarding opening game slots in the battle finder GUI.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;• 137.4 Patch Notes •&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;3 April 2008&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Welcome to SAGA update 137.4! We're still heavily focused on identifying and knocking out the remaining crash issues affecting some of you. We made very significant strides this week and we're pretty excited - with a little luck we should be able to finish off most (if not all) of them for next weeks update (or sooner if possible). We're all very excited about being able to get back to normal here at the office - it's far more exciting to be adding in new content and game features/improvements rather than focusing on fixing stability. Other than stability fixes the primary updates are regarding raiding mechanics. There are some future changes coming up that will continue to adjust how raids work, but for now we hope these adjustments will alleviate most of the potential exploitation and allow those who aren't interested in player vs. player conflict a way to avoid it more easily. Please also note that we've removed the manashard costs from all territory advancement. With that all said here's a list of this weeks more relevant changes:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;FIXES AND UPDATES&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Units will now use their special abilities when defending your wilderness territories during a raid.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;God favor is again properly removed when going on raids.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Raiding now requires at least one of your territories to have two full health manashard mines on it. The raid timer is also limited by the number of manashard mines on your territory with the most mana mines plus 1 minute.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Manashard mines now produce at a reduced rate when damaged.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Wilderness territories can now be returned to the safe lands. Doing so will sell all gold mines, lumber mills, stone quarries, manashard mines, and your Keep. All units on the territory will also be disbanded according the the keep changes.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Arrows on graveyard window no longer affect chat.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Selecting the Objectives window before a battle begins will no longer crash the client.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Trade notes are now restricted to 60 characters.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Resolved an issue with upkeep that could prevent a player from connecting to the game.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Fixed an issue where peasant militia could not be deactivated properly before a PVP game had begun.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Units which are holding ground no longer have an infinite range.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Storehouse bonus for building information now always displays correctly.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;When a keep is destroyed, the units on that territory will now be disbanded instead of being lost to the void.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Optimized RAM usage related to how textures were being stored.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Added better log output regarding memory related issues.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Adjusted the offset for the projected textures to help prevent collision with the terrain on lower end video cards.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Battle finder should no longer allow players to open up slots improperly.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;QUEST CHANGES&#60;/p&#62;

&#60;p&#62;Fixed a few minor issues with quests. Raibyn Hoode is now ranged instead of melee.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;BALANCE CHANGES&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;We weren't able to get as much balance work done as we'd hoped this week. We've all been so focused on helping track down the remaining crash issues that we weren't able to spend as much time as we'd anticipated on balance. However, we did manage to get a number of things adjusted and we'll continue to adjust as things progress. We're currently assessing things such as PVP stats, quest stats, and other numerous data sources to gather a fuller understanding of how things are currently performing in SAGA. Over the next several weeks and months there will be continuous adjustment as we tighten things down. With today's update the most notable adjustments are probably those made to how stuns and paralization work - in all cases the max duration was significantly reduced. Most other changes were minor and are as follows:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Troops&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Human Light Infantry - &#34;HOLD THE LINE - UNIT GAINS +10% DR FOR 30 SECONDS. COOLDOWN: 120 SECONDS.&#34; &#38;gt; &#34;HOLD THE LINE - UNIT GAINS +30% DR FOR 30 SECONDS. COOLDOWN: 120 SECONDS.&#34;&#60;/p&#62;

&#60;p&#62;Dwarven Zeppelin - ATTACKRANGE 35 &#38;gt; 45&#60;/p&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Hey Goodgotd,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have a spare graphics card that has pixel shader 2.  It may even have PS3, which you can have for free if you wish.  Just Email me if you're interested.  I did offer it twice before but the first person never got back to me and the second (a well known forum friend here, declined it.  It's an AGP card, with 128Mb of graphics memory, so it should see you through for a while. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;regards&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Stephen&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;p.s. I seem to be able to redeem all of my boosters, not one eah day as some suggest;  am I'm doing something wrong?  Also within the ten packs that I've opened, human archers, human pikemen and a couple of others have been repeated at least three or four times over the ten sets of ten units.  If any SAGA admins read this, does this mean that I have four armies of these races, or is  it just the luck of the draw?  Thanks.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;OK guys....here's the lowdown on what I found. The reason I couldn't login is b/c my password was one character too long (took me a while to figure that one out). Apparently the online login allows larger pw's. So I created a whole new account with a different email and all and finally got in! &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Now, I don't know if it's just me, but I'm not getting an option to redeem my booster packs when I start the game from my desktop but I do get it online. Here's what I did.....after creating your account close the game and go to the Saga website at &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.playsaga.com&#34;&#62;Saga&#60;/a&#62;.  You'll be on a page with a video, above the video there's a &#34;community site&#34; link. Click the link and it takes you to the Forums page with a Saga &#34;gameboard&#34;. On the top right of the game board there's a &#34;My Nation&#34; button, click it and you'll be at the login page. Save that to your favorites so you don't have to go through all the links next time. Login and you'll be on a Saga gameboard that is open to the &#34;Buy boosters&#34; page. At the top it will say &#34;Unregistered&#34; there's a register button.....don't click that button, you don't need to register, unless you want to of course, but then you have to pay. Below that is an option that says &#34;Free Boosters 3 of 3&#34; and there's a &#34;Redeem&#34; button to the right. Click that button to get your booster pack. (NOTE: You can only get one pack per day so you'll get the first one now and you'll have to go back tomorrow for the second and so on.) Once you do this you can go logoff, then go back to your desktop and start the game. Your new booster pack items will now be there. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Hope this helps somebody.......anybody! :)

			<description>&#60;p&#62;debbiesg.....I only THOUGHT it was ok, sorry. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Bubby......I went to the website and it accepted my login but when I try to run the game from my desktop icon it says the pw is incorrect for that ID. On hubby's it's the same ID &#38;#38; PW for both so why won't mine work? Also I still get the &#34;Build 137.5 (at least I think that was the number) every time I start the game. Should it do that every time. After the build I get a &#34;Launch&#34; button which takes me to  the login page that won't let me login.....UGH! &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Whiterabbit....sounds like maybe we're having the same problem?
