That would be a good feature to request getting added to SEIV. A way to validate a turn file from the command line. That would allow PBW to report the error when it receives our turn so that we could download the proper turn and redo it.

I have downloaded the same turn several times just to make sure I have the right one (50 hour turn intervals). I might download it to look at battles right away, but I may not have had time to actually do the turn. Then when I come back to it, I cannot remember if I have the right turn. This was not a problem until I started playing more games than I can keep track of.

I have found it easier to track having my turns attached to emails and sending them back that way rather than downloading and uploading the turns. Emailing works better because I can look at the times when I received the turn and the notificaiton that PBW received my reply.

Otherwise, if I download a turn and look at it, I still download it when I come back later to do the turn just to make sure I have the right Version. Having a cable modem I am not that concerned about downloading extra times.

Did PBW go down again or is it just me that cannot reach it?

It's up now. If it went down it was in between visits for me.

PBW is definately NOT up now.

"Cannot find server or DNS error", whatever the #ell that means...

I think PBW is still having problems.
5 minutes ago, I was getting DNS errors but now it appears ok.
Lucky I decided to check one more time.
