Turn tracking thread for "Newbies Sandbox" PBEM

[Chaunk]

Just in case it should have reached me, I have yet to receive the latest turn in this one.

[kbarrett]

That would mean that Trotsky is still doing the turn, or that your ISP nuked his email.

[Leon Trotsky]

Just in case, where do I have to send those turns?

[Chaunk]

Sincere apologies for the delay, I've had a rough week. Will do my best to improve.

I discovered that your emails were being marked as junk at the server (i.e. before they reached me). Hopefully, this has been corrected.

[kbarrett]

Bad Chaunk. No donut.

Here is my turn.

2889, drones to hive, completed and sent.

[kbarrett]

OK folks .... who has the turn?

I sent it to setroc on October 1st ...

Two weeks between turns is a bit excessive.

[Chaunk]

Turn not with me.

Quite fortunate really as I'm having severe difficulties with SMACX in that it simply isn't running on Vista. Any ideas appreciated.

Build a linux PC and get the Loki iso to load SMAC.

or make a dual boot PC.

[kbarrett]

OK then.

I did not get Chaunk's email.

Could you please post the turn here?

[kbarrett]

Turn 2190, drones to hive, completed and sent.

What's this about 2190? I dont remember playing 2189. Here it is, as I presume that 2190 was a mistake..

Oh, and sorry about the delay. A little bit excessive..

The bases are presumed destroyed, as we have detected no further transmissions.

Gee ... did someone throw out the first nuke?

I probably screwed up the name on the file.

And yea ... excessive.
