ATLANTISv2 atl-players-digest #132 From: csd@microplex.com (Christian Daudt) Date: Fri, 08 Sep 1995 00:00:00 +0000 Errors to csd@microplex.com Now there should be a digest whenever (a) there are 10 emails or (b) whenever there is an email waiting for more than 48 hours for a digest to be completed. So don't get worried if the digest has only 1 or 2 emails, that just means the list has been slow. (I hope it works) If you want previous versions, they are available via WWW at http://www.microplex.com/~csd/atlantisv2/ ---------------------------------------------------------- From: "Bobb the Quickling" <gcannon@pawpaw.easynet.co.uk> Date: Thu, 7 Sep 1995 23:05:08 +0000 Subject: Re: Atlantis: no turn processed > > From: SARIKAKIS ANDREAS <andrew@ergasya.tuc.gr> > > Subject: Re: Atlantis: no turn processed > > To: vshah@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca (Vivek Shah) > > Date: Thu, 7 Sep 95 12:57:23 WETDST > > Cc: atl-players@ee.pdx.edu > > > > > > > Hi all, I've got a problem and I can't figure out what I did wrong.

To be honest, he is doing nothing but being annonying. I had removed him from the list long ago and should not been have been recieving any more messages. If you want to unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@ee.pdx.edu with the words "unsubscribe alt-players". Or even send a message to me personally, but dont reply to the list, it just makes everyone unhappy. Im sorry for the tone this is taking, but having to deal with hundreds of messages from similiar problem people do not help my disposition any. If I have offended anyone, I am sorry. Im a nice guy, really I am... :_) -Jeff -- -=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=-=+=- Jeff Heinen The Computer Action Team The Un-named CAT jeffh@ee.pdx.edu cat@ee.pdx.edu http://www.ee.pdx.edu/~jeffh/ http://www.cat.pdx.edu/ ---------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 7 Sep 1995 22:42:14 -0700 From: jeffh@ee.pdx.edu (Jeff Heinen) Subject: Re: failed orders...
