Glad to see the game moving along at a good pace!

This is about when we switch over to the tracker, right? If someone who knows how to set that up could do it I bet we'd all be grateful.

Everyone should join there before I can finalize the tracker.

Done

Seems to be there. Good.

Pbemtracker hasn't worked too well lately i.e. it doesn't store saves always correctly so we might had to use it only to follow whose turn it is i.e. I suggest we use both email and tracker when transferring files.

The other option is my pbem emailer program. It works for me perfectly.

So the feature that obsoletes pbemtracker is that all players get a cc when you forward the save, so that everyone knows who has the save?

Could you mod Civ to trigger the pbem emailer when you click end turn?

and it ...

• auto detects new saves
  
• auto selects them to be sent
  
• auto creates email
  
• auto attaches save
  

... and all you have to do is click 'send'.

Worth a shot if (as seen in the PBEM 4 info thread) PBEM Tracker is bugging out again.

I don't mind what system for tracking is used, but we need something. We got 2 turns played on nicely, but already in 3rd turn it seems we aren't anymore on schedule and I don't have any idea where the save is.

I suggest everyone signs up on pbemtracker and downloads pbem emailer. At 1st we can use both and after testing we'll choose which one to use permanently.
