No, but we could probably make one...

Well, if you think YOU are upset, you should read the e-mail correspondence between me and Master Belisarius on the same subject. We have the same problem, perhaps even worse and longer running than you and Alneyan. This issue has had a significant negative impact on our game. When battles hinge on tech advances and we cannot trade, gift, or tribute tech or ships, what the hell can we do? Grrrr…

I didn't know it was happening to you guys, too. It happened to us one other time, too, when Alneyan was trying to pass ECM 1 to me. It took me 4 or 5 turns to get it. By that time, he gave me ECM 2. But after 6 turns, I had already built 3 complete sets of destroyers (that got their butt kicked later on).

So, what do we do about this? Keep playing and assume it messed up both teams? Start another game knowing about the "gifting" glitch and how to avoid it being a problem?

IMO, a restart would be optimal. I will play on if that is what everyone else wants – the game is recoverable, but will always be tainted for me.

On a positive note, I have really been enjoying the game in general and the team aspect especially. This is the third team game that I have played and certainly the best. I would like to see more team games.
