I don't like this option - I don't think that's fair.

Better thing would be it could be fixed by MM, running the turn with the same .plr files. Maybe MM can just decode my .plr file, add the two declarations of war to it(on Aether Lords and True Republic) enabling me to shoot back, make a new .plr and redo the turn with this?

Another option might be, I usually save the game before sending Messages, which I do Last every turn, as they cannot be undone. I could use this savegame, add the sent Messages as far as I can remember, add the 2 declarations of war enabling me to shoot back, and subit the turn otherwise unchanged. That requires some trust though, and is therefor not a good option; I would prefer MM fixing it one way or the other.

Dude, I trust ya. That's fine with me. I presume all the other players would also abide by this idea?

I can't promise you any sort of action on Malfadors part. I am simply going to send the files to them to see if they can figure out what's going on. They may in fact be too deep into SE5 to even think about looking at it. I'd suggest as far as this game specifically goes going ahead with one of your alternative options. Whatever you decide if you need me to rerun the turn let me know.

I opt for roanon rerunning his turn and adding the declaration of war, sending in the turn to Geo and run it again.

That's the best solution in my opinion.
If anyone disagrees voice it now or be forever silent!!

So Roanon, go ahead and finish the old turn and we'll wait a day before we rerun the game.
Mail me when you have sent the turn to Geo Roanon.

Ok, I have reloaded my old saved turn, i.e. the submitted turn minus all Messages. I have added the two declarations of war to be able to shoot back against the True Republic and the Aether Lords, and my cloakers to engage (which they also didn't as I noticed), and to enable my mines, and to correct whatever also might have happend (it might even be possible that they still got my minerals from the trade while I did not get theirs).
I tried to rewrite the Messages, but might have missed something - in that case, anyone who wants please feel free to answer to the message that came in with the old turn
