Gimme a break, if you please
I'm not that fat, more like lean !

(I know, it's bad poetry, but I've never been really good at that stuff, and it gets even worse in a foreign language)

CEO

Turn recieved.
Turn sent to Lord Zod.

By the way... I only recieved a combat report or 1 Unit Won, 0 Units Lost. I was attacked, but by who or how, I don't know. Did any of you Rover rush one of my units? Fungus Attack? I have asked Mose to let me know what it was (if possible). But since I wasn't NOTIFIED of WHO or able to see a combat replay... To the other newbies in PBEM... this could have serious implications in tactical considerations. Humm...

Darkstar, I received your e-mail but the turn was not attached.

[Meister Flo]

Dale & Mario !
please make sure my turns are played till Monday - gotta party !

[Capt Dizle]

Turn Complete and sent to MariOne. I do not know if he will receive it in time. This is because I don't do time zones. It makes my head hurt.

[Capt Dizle]

Darkstar,

Contrary to my e-mail to you, I have confirmed your problem with combat reports. Sometimes you get a report, sometimes you do not. This sucks. &)$#^**(^^*

Anyway, if my attempt to catch MariOne b4 he leaves work is unsucessful, should we get someone else to play for FLO? Don't worry about the password...otherwise we lose the weekend.

[Darkstar]

Sir Jimmy of the StepChildren...

If MoSe can't play until Monday, then I say let's wait and let Flo take his own turn. I know that isn't what you want to here, but there are the other PBEMs that you have taken on to get your Pbem fix. I can wait.

But Aredhran is our other player. Does he care? He should be involved in a couple of more PBEMs himself.

Besides, three day weekend. Some people are going away. Let's not tie any more than we have to to their computers.

Mose is in Italy? What... 8 or 9 hours ahead of the east coast of the USA? BTW, Mose, what is your time adjustment from GMT?

And Lord Jimmy, Thanks for the confirmation on the bug. I was hoping I hadn't lost that many marbles at once. It takes so long to pick them back up again. And then you have to make sure you found them all...

Darn! I have to rewrite it all, thanks to a proxy/browser plot!

So, I took the turn for Flo this Morning.

My zone is CET (Central European Time) GMT +1, where most of europe is, while GMT is just London, Ireland & Portugal.
EST is GMT-5, so CET is EST +6.
Just add 6 hours and you get my time. BTW, you can check it all from Windows control panel, date&time.

I did some testing and it's all ok:
if YOU attacked worms in the previous turn, you get as well the battle report warning (you won x and lost y) but NOT the detailed messages in MFD.

You requested my opinion. I have 4 other PBEM games going on (not to mention single-player), so if you guys want to wait for Flo, that's fine with me.

And Erewhon is a "wait 5 minutes to load, click 3 times, save & send" for me anyway... Maybe I'll be more impatient in 20-30 game years.
