The scene:

GK has just changed to go out for dinner and night of drunken debauchery... but he has some time to play his PBW game.

Starts the game and up pops the log screen. Events? What's this? Oh, just the warp point I opened. Politics? Some interesting stuff there. Combat? Hmm, good news and bad. Research? Okay those projects are done, better add these things. Click off the log, go to designs and make some new fighters and capital ships based on the new tech. Okay, back to the log. 3 new colonies. Get them up and running.

Now system by system. GK goes through 4 systems making changes when suddenly... "Whats that dear? Time to go? Already? Just let me save this game."

Save the game?

THE GAME WON'T SAVE!!! And Gk still has 6 systems to make changes in and those diplomacy Messages to respond to!

Three choices:
Leave the computer running and hope no one fiddles with it before noon tomorrow! Hah!
Quit the game and start over tomorrow. *groan*
End the game even though the changes are only half done! Naddachance!

I hope this clarifies what we are trying to say JLS.
