Dreylin Wrote:All you do is register an e-mail address with it, then when your turn happens go to the site and click on the "upload turn" button (which won't be visible until Ruff kicks off the tracking) and attach the relevant file. It then uploads the file and stores it on the server, as well as sending it to the e-mail of the next player. Small quibble - the game is delivered by the system to your provided email address. Very rarely, it doesn't work (prob 2 or 3 times in PBEM_1). You play the game, end your turn and then upload the resulting save to the tracker and it emails it onto the next person.
fyi - my name when the game gets to me will be "Luff_Hi"
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

Right - pbem tracker is set up - someone confirm that I have the order / leaders correct and we can launch that side of it.
then we'll just be waiting on the map reviewer  .

they are just placeholders until I know who you really are. I can change them.

I think the turn order is incorrect, I think you should use the quoted above.
You have my name/leader correct.
