Funny, I was reading the old "Maximum Chaos PBEM" thread (which never got off the ground) where pretty well the same thing was suggested [by me IIRC].
Erebus in the Balance - a FFH Modmod based around balancing and polishing FFH for streamlined competitive play.

Guys, I won't be around from tomorrow morning (03 July, 0630 UTC) till Friday morning (05 July, same time). I'm travelling to Scotland for my company and won't be back before Thursday night, at which point my wife would kill me if I would start playing the turns because besides it probably being around 2300 when I'm home it is also our wedding day... sorry, for this unexpected pause.

oh that sounds awesome.
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.

I wonder how hard it would be to modify the turn tracker to make that work... probably not too terribly hard I would think.

The save forwarding is done by Gmail, not by the PHP script. Gmail does not allow randomness in filters as far as I know.

I thought I had posted something here yesterday. I'm taking a bit longer with this save, because Serdoa is away and I was very tired yesterday.

Take your time, I'm not in a rush.
However, I'm working nights Saturday and Sunday, so unless I have the save by 1800 GMT I will not be able to play the save until I get home around 0700 GMT to following day. Luckily, those should be the only night shifts I have to work during this game.

OK, I'm off nights, and I'm back to being able to play during my normal timeslot in the evening.
