Who Has the Game Save? Part III

[vondrack]

Ummm, the savegame email I sent to your regular chello address bounced, DeepO (overquota). You may either ask one of your many savegame-receiving minions to post it for you in the GS forum or give me another address to resend it to.

[DeepO]

try again, please. One of my friends sent me nearly 50 MB of (naughty) movies... while in general I'm no big fan of those, I hate it when it overfills my in-box

Resent, this time only to you.

That cracked me up. Vondrack, do you have a distribution list set up so you don't have to click on each GS member every single time you send the save?

[vondrack]

Um, no... I use a handy feature of my email client (The Bat!, www.ritlabs.com - highly recommended, though not free... but even the ugly Outlook Express may be able to do it, too - I ditched it for other reasons). If I go to my "Sent" folder and select a message I sent in the past, I can right-click it and simply "re-send". Makes it go to my "Outbox" folder (again)... where I can double-click it and freely edit to my liking - removing the old attachment (previous save), attaching the correct save instead. Once finished, I "Send All", actually sending the email(s) prepared in the Outbox via my SMTP server out.

This way, I once took the time to create an email with all the GS members that had asked me for the save (10 of them ATM) in the "To:" or "Cc:" fields - and now only keep resending the "previous" savegame email, replacing the savegame itself. Whenever someone asks to be added/removed, I edit him in/out - and since I always resend the "most recent" savegame email, the change usually propagates as desired.

Works like a charm.

Thanks Vondrack! I'll play the save asap (might be in a few hours, though)

you know, there are things you don't necessarily have to share with us...

[DeepO]

bah, doesn't everyone has a friend like that, sending too much rubbish to your in-box?

Oh, and MZ: you know me: I've got no secrets

Oh, btw, we appreciate that a certain nation removed their galleon from the vicinity of our territorial waters, replacing it with a, uhm, totally harmless, even if not obsolete yet destroyer.

gee, I wonder who did THAT!

Please, excuse the delay. I will play for Darekill, because he is in vacation for one week.

Vondrack... sigh... okay, I'm sorry if you felt left out, but did you really had to create a bug of your own? When I tried to access the ND active deals, the game crashed on me too... which would not have been too badly, if it wasn't after I just played the complete turn

Seems our playing habits are quite similar. I, too, check the trade/diplo stuff only after moving all our units and doing the MM stuff...
