OK this is for a game with a 24 hour host timer that wanted 12 hour reminders.

# if the game name is "megagame" then I use queue M or queue m
# so in the pre.sh

# remove the old reminder timer in case quickturn kicked in
atrm `atq |grep "M domgames"|cut -f1 `
# set a new timer to run reminders.sh in 12 hours in queue P
at -f reminders.sh -v now + 12 hours -q M

# then the reminders.sh has a line for each nation and its owner
# if fatherland is newer than the last .2h for that nation then email
if [ ftherlnd -nt early_pangaea.2h ] ; then echo "waiting for your turn" \
|mail -s "MegaGame is waiting" gandalf@community.net ; fi

I could tighten it up abit by adding a check of the stats.txt for whether the nation is still playing and not AI to avoid false reminders. Maybe later.
