Hmm... I also have not recieved a turn, I'm afraid. Have you previously had trouble with Yahoo! mail?

I use yahoo, and I've recieved mine.

I use Gmail, and I've recieved mine.
By the way, anyone wants an invitation to use Gmail?
They're free, and I got ~49 left...

I usually have trouble with Yahoo, but on the "Player send files" end; I think it is the first time turns do not make it to the player's mail, though Yellow Cactus has been having trouble in Entwined Destiny as well (for the past couple of turns).

I am thinking my SMTP has been altered, explaining why it doesn't work quite as well as before. I will send back those turns with my own Yahoo mail, but I am not too hopeful... if it doesn't work, I will switch to Plan C (involving uploading the files somewhere, for players unable to get their turn files).

(In the case of Shmonk, I did send the turn to both mails, so that's why I suspect the problem is on my end, and not on yours)

The situation for now (I am writing it here, instead of sending it as a mail, given the current problems):

- Man, Ermor, Pangaea and Jotunheim have sent in their turns.
- Pythium has sent a turn, but that was a .trn file (contained in a zip file), and not the .2h file. You do not need to zip your turn files, as they are very light; I only zip the .trn files to make sure I am in the correct directory.
- No turn file from Arcoscephale.
- Marignon and Machaka didn't get the turn files, so they haven't played their turns.
