We need a tracker thread...should we start it in the forum, or ask Mist how he set his up for FFHPBEM2?

I don't know what you refer to by Mist's tracker thread (is it more than a simple thread?), but yeah, we need something like this. It's not good when the save is in limbo and nobody notices. The current pace of one turn per week is not much fun.

Did anyone actually notify pbemtracker that they have a problem? If so, what was their response?

It's this thing: http://www.mistbinder.org/tracker.php
A homebrewed game tracker since the default one doesn't work for FFH.

The Tracker has been working in PBEM10 recently, although we've gotten in the habit of e-mailing people, and it's keeping a moderate (2-3t/week) pace.

I think a tracker thread for each of the Vets and Greens game would be helpful. Simply "TXX sent to YYYYYY" would be sufficient.

I concur. All I know at the moment is that it's not my turn.

I take it sunrise is sitting on the turn without knowing about it? If so, someone poke him please.

Sent him a PM....

On a semi-related note, is it possible to take games down from PBEM Tracker? I have a game set up there that's been long dead, just taking up space. I doubt taking down my one measly game would help, but who knows?

Not that I'm aware of, I've got several, mostly from PBEM5b (where we did it at least twice because we screwed up).
