Hi,
I've found that sometimes the behaviour with uploading turn files can be inconsistent. For example, after I've played a turn my girlfriend will sometimes log on from her place to see what's happened (to my bewilderment she's got really keen!), and sometimes it will then put a cross through my symbol, presumably because she's got no .2h file. But sometimes it won't do that.
Anyway, at the moment I'm having quite a severe problem - I need to not upload my turn file for a while, so that the turn won't process too soon, since the guy I'm playing against will miss his next turn if it processes before tomorrow. So, I played my turn anyway, and then clicked "Menu" and "Save game and quit". It explicitly warned me that choosing this option wouldn't upload my turn file - good. Then it did!
So, is there any way to un-upload my turn file? I've tried moving it (effectively deleting it), then repeatedly logging in to the game in order to get the behaviour my girlfriend gets, where it puts a cross through my banner, but no luck. Anyone have any ideas, or any insight as to why it seems to act so oddly?
