  • My upload is filled with stuff I didn't put there

    That's right - a bunch of zipped .sav files, looks like SMAC/X PBEM saves. I've never played a PBEM though, and I'm sure that I didn't just upload them and forget that I did. No, the timestamps are from a time when I'm certain I wasn't home. So, bug, it seems. Or something.

      a few examples

      EDIT: the ones that _are_ mine are the .gifs I made for the ACDG III

                    Intruiging...

                    Just checked my upload files, and the only ones there are the saves and not your gifs, so if my files are appearing in your list then it's quite confusing and I have no idea how they'd get there frankly.

                      I think the Data Angels have something to do with it.

                          Err, if we all have to share upload space, could I share my space with joncha?

                              I do have an idea... Check your user ID's. Yours is 18951, Method's is 8951. That can't be a coincidence, though I'm not sure in exactly what way that caused this anomaly.

                              When looking up which files to display, the upload thingy might look for userid_filename, without making sure that there isn't anything before the userid. For instance, someone with a userid of 1 would not only see his own files, but all files of all users with a userid ending with 1.
