Edit: Last hour warning, may be a little bit more.

I got ralph's last sav at work, played, sent, posted, fooled around the office, went home played a turn for the earth game, opened a bottle of wine, put the radio on, changed clothes, and then the same turn from ralph arrived via aol. (Sir sends me two copies of each save at two addresses.)

the point of this is to ask whether it might make sense to post saves on the board when going there anyway to indicate your turn is sent. then, when the email floats away in the breeze as it sometimes does, we would have a quick backup

[alexman]

The problem is AOL. I often get your save half an hour after you post here. I would hate to waste Apolyton disk space with dozens of saves per day, but if you have no other way, perhaps we should. At least the saves that concern you.

[Edit: well, not often. I guess it happened 2-3 times so far]

[Harovan]

To post saves here would be a big waste of space, and imho be not justified for a mere pbem. Our game floats quick enough, or doesn't it? Ah, and re AOL, sure, it sucks.

ok, i buy the idea that to post saves is antisocial.

aol is not only poor, it's expensive. maybe i should shop a bit.

Is it not possible to remove attachments when editing a post?

Good thinking!

Thanks! Hey, anything to keep up this great pace.

Sir Ralph: go go go!

[Harovan]

Turn sent. May be I make one more, if it arrives within the next hour at the latest.

[Harovan]

Here's the game, in case AOL is late again.

EDIT: removed
