Your creature is doing good. You just need to have some faith in him.
@ Orochimaru We normally start on the hour and waited long enough. To connect to a game you only need to use the Client. Not the Lobby.
I'll set up a lobby server and keep it open to see if you can connect.

Open the Client and input that addresss.
Click on connect and wait untill the status at the bottom turns to "Connected".
Click on Start Black & White.
When it loads, basically just click through the screenswithout making any changes to the options. You want to play on a Local Area Network. not Internet.
When you get to the games screen you should see a game listed with my name, click on it and then "Join Game".
I'll add you to my MSN, give me a heads up if you're going to do this so I can start the game.
