So I resent the turn 37 save, though I sent that one before.

I don't see the point in playing turn 37 again. It sounds like GreyWolf needs to delete the outgoing turn 38 save file and replay.

Please, players, if you ever see the "file exists. Do you want to overwrite?" prompt after ending your turn, do not reply "Yes" and send on the file. The resulting save file will be unplayable. Once you see that prompt, there's no way to avoid having to replay the turn. Select either Yes or No, it doesn't matter, then exit the game (or exit to main menu and alt-tab to your favorite file manager program), delete the outgoing save (CurrentTurn_to_NextPlayer), load the incoming save (CurrentTurn_to_YourName), and replay.

If you receive the correct save file (CurrentTurn_to_YourName), but are prompted for the previous player's password, send an email to that player saying, "You did the file overwrite thing DaveV is always blathering on about. Please delete, replay, and resend."

Turn pace has been great up to this point, and this is a holiday weekend in the US, but I'd hate to see this game suddenly slip to 3 days/turn.

Sigh. This isn't ideal, guys. I'm not sure if the current delay is due to GreyWolf or Yell0w or someone else, but please, try to play your turns within 24 hours of receiving them, and check the tracker at least once a day to make sure you aren't accidentally delaying the game.
