a question about game mode
PBEM is ok for me but what does it mean 'served based'?

Hi, PBEM is server based in that the Slitherine Server holds all the PBEM turns, so when you press "Next Turn" the game itself sends the turn to the server (so you don't have to mess around with emailing your opponent).
Same for playing a game, all your on-going games are listed and you can just play them like any other game.
Thanks,
Brian
