Its incentive to get your turns in early, eh? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I can't get them in any earlier than when I check my mail. That was the reason behind my complaint.

Is that implying that you only use the "reply to email with turn attached" style of uploading, or that you always check your email first, before visiting the PBW site, and don't get a chance to check too often?

Re: Weird PBW problem
 
I have a program that monitors all of my email addresses and lets me know when I have mail. The problem arises from my odd hours. I work nights and sleep whenever I have a chance during the day. So on any given day, I usually log onto the internet when I get home in the morning, check my mail, do whatever, then go to bed most of the time. I check when I get up as well, which is usually mid-afternoon, and then do various things that need to be done. I'm guessing that most people get their turns uploaded in the afternoon or evening since that is when the new turn is usually ready.
Therefore I get the turn notification in the morning when I get home, along with maybe 1 or 2 nag mails.

*pant pant*

If you are refering to PBW emails like "you are one of the last players to upload, hurry up" or "you are the last player" those aren't from him exactly. They are a built in part of PBW that just happens to use the email address of the game manager.

They can be disabled by the game owner however. All that is configurable. You can have as many as one nag every hour to as few as no nags at all.

Thanks.

I wasn't trying to cause any grief over it.
