LOL. Had me going for a minute.
EDIT - You should use his location and title too.
If you're actually getting e-mails about the game and this isn't just a joke, you probably signed up with the Yahoo! Group and need to change your setting there.

Here be thy results for the most recent turn. Just download the attached file and load it into thy diploware. Or, if you prefer, you can download your results from the website, as explained below (either case is fine, and its the same file).

Here is the most recent list of thy fellow regents in the game (note that any realm ruled by Local Forces is artificial intelligence, not a real player. Such a realm wont invade you, but will defend its own provinces, including attempting to recapture territories it previously owned):
The upcoming turn is due on Tuesday, 5 PM Pacific, PST (in GMT, this is Wednesday, 1 AM).

You're getting Sicily's turnfile? What is the game code e.g. mmw, mne...
Phlab said something about being unable to get his turnfile. I guess somehow you're getting his info now? I have no idea how that might have happened though.
EDIT - I am not getting my turnfile through e-mail. There was a worm moving through Yahoo! e-mail accounts recently that came from the game community. Maybe it's redirecting mail or something bizaare like that?
Originally posted by AThousandYoungmmw. And I guess I am getting Phlab's turn file. But only sometimes, once every couple of moves it seems.

Originally posted by XanthosNZYeah, that's our game. Suzi was having similar problems before. Did you ever give your address to AGE Games? For example, were you going to play but then you dropped out right before the game started or something?
mmw. And I guess I am getting Phlab's turn file. But only sometimes, once every couple of moves it seems.

XNZ? How the heck are you ending up with my turn file... and only every couple weeks? I stopped getting them last and this turn, but can still go get them on my own.
ATY... my problem last evening was only me DL'n my file to the desktop. I noticed just after PM'n you last evening.
ATY... is my email address still next to Siclily in your emails?
King!
Originally posted by PhlabibitNo it's not. Mine is in every email I recieve (and BdN PMed about it so it's appearing for others not just me).

Originally posted by PhlabibitYes, this is one of the same problems I had. The GM is sending your emails (and therefore your files) to another email address... What I did was send the GM an email asking why my game emails are going to (insert email address here) when they should be going to (your email address here)... after about 4 or 5 times, he finally got it straight, but then started sending mine to the other address again like 4 moves later. So just inform the GM of the problem, and eventually they'll climb down from their ivory tower and do something about it. I'm guessing it's just a mixup or a database probem.
Any clues as to how you ended up getting my files?
King!
