I haven't registered any nicknames but the one i tried to connect with, though, as I bought the game on "resale" (or what the word in english is), the previous owner might have registered a few accounts (or worse, given away the serial). At WOL the game crashes at "connecting ..." after the host has pressed the "Play"-button (and the other(s) in the game get a message about hand-shaking errors). Anyone who knows which ports WOL and other emperor/ts/ra2-servers are using?
