Thanks to life on the DungeonWorld lists. I have mastered the art of
skimming the content and deciding if it is any use to me or not. I have also
set-up my e-mail system to sort all of the messages out for me into
differeny folders so that I can easily identify what each is. I do a lot of
travelling at the moment and switch between different computers and this
list (and others) makes my life a lot easier since I know where to get
everything and how to get it.

You must not have a life. I get a similar number of messages a day and I
really don't need another 150 a day. Infact, I did what I suspect most US
players will do, I stopped receiving the messages as of today. Its really
cool, but I need to have it pre-sorted. The Deft board does that, so I
don't
need to look at 4th age message because I'm not in any 4th age games. Also,
when I'm in a game, I can follow a thread and ignore other games until I
have
time to come back to them.
You really have no idea of how many messages will begin to pour into this
list. Just the first few days that the US players started messaging, I saw
over 10 messages asking what the Deft board was and where to find it. There
were another 8 messages answering the question. This PROVES, that users
can't
or don't sort their messages first. The Deft board takes care of that for
you. Also, Please explain to me why you would NOT want to have messages
sorted? If you get half as much email as you say, then you would have more
time to spend on the content of messages than having to sort it out first
or
···
finding a pourly labled message later that is about something you already
sent a reply to the board.Change hurts, but it can ber good!
