CIV VI Gathering Storm new PBEM

I actually did and was surprised right now that it is again my turn. It turns out I needlessly kept the save for 9 hours, sorry guys. I uploaded my save from noon today.

That's OK - I wasn't going to play the turn in the morning and it arrived before my usual evening window so there wasn't really a delay. Turn played and passed.

Do you guys use email notification? That really works for me.

I use email notification but if there's no notification when my window opens I start occasionally checking via the website or desktop client, just in case.

I have noticed that the desktop client over the past few versions has been a bit wonky. Starting with PBEM 14 it would ask to upload the oldest save in my hotseat save folder. With the current version if I leave it open while playing my turn it will sometimes start to download the save again and then crash close silently.

I am using the desktop client as well and it seems that it is bugging out for me a bit:
I just verified on the homepage and I had to upload the save a second time to pass it on.

FYI, I fat-fingered into Archduke's thread tonight while trying to check in on my phone. Left immediately when I saw the wrong thread title pop up.

Hey gang,

Real life reared its head and has completely screwed up my schedule. I will not be able to play my turn today but should be able to get to it in the morning (EST)

Turn played and passed. I apologize for unexpected the delay.

Looking ahead it's likely that I will not be able to play a turn during my window on January 25th. I might be able to get to a turn in the morning or early afternoon, but no guarantees as my schedule for that day will be highly unpredictable.

It is now, thanks!  I belong to a private sports club and I volunteer to oversee some of the facilities and equipment.  One of the pieces of equipment critical to the facility decided to take a dump on reality yesterday afternoon and the problem with those things is you never know how long they'll take to resolve.
