Um - for the first time ever I think that I disagree with Colin - - sorry
mate the good days are gone. :slight_smile:

I like the too-ing and fro-ing of game 37 - I choose not to read it other
than in passing. And I generally prefer it to the days when there was one
email a month type list as well. Thing is I send diplos to my enemies as
well - maybe I am just the chatty type that way?

Hi,
This isn't really meant as a dig at anyone in particul;ar, but I wonder
if this mailing list is the right place for discussions about individual
games? For instancec in game 37 we have set up our own mailing list,
which is just as well, as I really don't think everyone that subscribes
to this list wants to read through the fifty or sixty messages we've had
over the last week.

Personally I would prefer it if we could keep this list for general
discussions about MEPBM rather than specific games.

Colin.

Hi,

Um - for the first time ever I think that I disagree with Colin - - sorry
mate the good days are gone. :slight_smile:

Tell me about it! Just don't start me off on team play, or people being
polite in emails, or whether neutrals really are neutral any more, or
...
On the other hand I am glad that the bad old days of, cough, other GMs
are gone!

I was expecting people to disagree with me, the problem is that I simply
don't have time to read everything, as it is I receive up to 100 emails
a day!

And I generally prefer it to the days when there was one email a month
type list as well.

Good gods yes!

OK, I take the point. However could people be doubly careful about how
they thread their messages? That way those who don't want to read about
a game they're not in can simply ignore that thread. If someone wants to
say something of general interest, could that be posted under a new
thread rather than risk being buried in an existing game specific
thread?

Colin.
