Yep. Me too. I usually send in my first orders on Wednesday.
Unfortunately, I do my best work under pressure. My brilliant new "sneak attack" I had concoted last night after imbibing a case of Miller High Life might go by the boards.😞

Strange, considering our relative speeds in making chess moves.

If you submitted the turnfile before Sunday, you wouldn't have. If you've tried to submit a different turnfile since than, you would have. Please read the thread.
I submitted one for both my games on Friday and Monday.

I've received a grand total of 3 confirmations since this game began.

Like I said before (and was pooh-poohed as incompetent), the customer service for this game totally and completely blows.
My customer service experience with the GM has been quite different, actually. Technical problems occur, of course, and this sounds like there were some widespread problems on their end (Bavaria, make your joke here if you must.)

I just uploaded four sets of orders with nary a problem. In cases like this, the game turn is almost always moved back a few days.

I reserve my jokes for no1, as I have about 170 pages of catching up to do, but thank you for the invitation.

How did you upload them? Through the webpage? I'm still getting the same error message.

I did the auto upload from the save menu. It is important after you hit the send button that you wait for the message 'Upload successful' to appear before you quit the screens.

I have not yet received any confirmation emails and that usually occurs much sooner.

I tried the auto send last night as a fall back but never got a confirming e-mail. I think we're headed for another extension; there's been a lot of complaints on the Yahoo Forum, so I think it's a system wide failure.

Uncompressed size mismatch 0 != 51330


I've sent mine by email also.

I can't imagine the site would let us down if there were wide spread problems... as there seems to be.

I wonder what could be so wrong... is it one guy in a closet with a laptop who runs this whole deal???

I'm not worried, I think they are going to postpone over this if they didn't get the turns of several users.

I suppose you've mailed the GM?

Other than that, the current problem appears to be widespread across the entire system.
Of course, I emailed my turn in 3 times now and still the web page says my orders are missing.

In addition to using the in-game auto-send, I might add.

I recall this exact problem a few turns ago, and the turn deadline was extended then, so I'm sure it will be extended again.
