Woo thanks Hobbes

[Gunnar Thor]

Excellent, thanks Hobbes.

[mox]

Thanks again Hobbes.
I saw your email this morning but I didn't see the attached turn for Gecko. Could you double check?

[H0bbes]

Errr, ummmmmmm, yes, well, I forgot to attach the turn.

Sent now.

[mox]

I don't see it yet, I'll check in the morning.

[H0bbes]

Hmmmmmmm, I did send it, but here it is in case it got lost.

[mox]

Very odd. Still nothing. Thanks for posting it and getting us going.

2102 to Chairman Lazerus

Good luck all!

Turn sent to Gunnar

Took 4 goes to remember this was a smac pbem and why smax kept crashing when i tried to load it

Gunnar : i didn't zip the file since in the other pbem im in had some probs with winzip versions clashing and files not able to be unzipped properly so just sent it in chunk. If your on a dial-up and want to see if zip will work in future just say.

[duMa]

Me, I'd like mine zipped, since the file size becomes about 10% of the original size. I've got Hotmail... they like to close down accounts if they've got too much stuff in there. Lazerus, I'd suggest you get yourself a new copy of WinZip if you have problems with the version you have.

[mox]

Lazerus, did you have any problem opening the zip I sent you?

I'll keep zipping it if there isn't a problem, easier sending that small file.

[Gunnar Thor]

Turn received, played, zipped and sent to duMa.

I have ADSL so just send me the turns unzipped, I hate unzipping anyway.

[duMa]

Gecko-Mox-2103.zip sent.

Odd... I can see the Spartan base on my map.

Don't even think about it.

Strange though.

[mox]

I didn't get a chance to play my turn before work this morning, I'll either play it at lunch if I can break away or when I get home (6.5 hours from now )
