To calmon, no the status page said I played

Thrawn:

It looks like that the new turn (I think its 31) just ignored what i said last time, gave me a stale and then synched me up to everyone else. So, I am back to playing.

Now I also have a stack of gold from three stale turns, anyone want some? I could use some water breathing equipment

I'd like some gold please

Hello guys - sorry, this thread wasn't on my favourites list for some reason, so I missed all this (the favourites get e-mailed to me). Anyway - davegg - sorry the messup earlier led to you staling. I can sort of guess what happened although I'm not sure, but anyway it's obviously a consequence of that earlier messup at the start of the week and shouldn't happen again. Hope it hasn't disadvantaged you too severely.

We are ok, in our happy little corner; If anyone wants to trade for some water breathing items, please PM me

Hi everyone,

So, while I was doing stuff with the server this morning (starting the
new game Urapara, in fact), Something Very Strange happened. Specifically,
the file with the data about all the games in it got replaced by a version
from a week or two back. This is, actually, Impossible, since I don't even
keep old versions of that file. Definitely a case of a ghost in the
machine.

Anyway, the consequence was that every single game hosted (the hosting
times were in the past you see). So you'll all have got erroneous "new
turns". I've now rolled back all the games, but the unfortunate side
effect is that you'll all have to send your turns in again if you'd
already done so. Also the hosting times are later than they would have
been, and the 'Request turn resend' option won't work this turn
Summary: Ignore the most recent "New turn" e-mail, and if you had already
sent in your 2h file for the current turn, send it in again.

Anyway, sorry about that.

My read of the above, is that we should ignore the turn files we received (mine says 29). If we had already played our turn, we should resubmit the 2H file. If we haven't yet played our turns, we should do so, and submit the 2H file. In other words, ignore the new turn that came in.

Yes, that's right.

Hmm, maybe I suffer from an unclear writing style. I will have to work on it.
