Subject: WoW~!!!
That was my post that got deleted. It was a somewhat long post too. BUt, not to worry-- by clicking "back" on my browser about 100 or 150 times, it returned me to the screen where I typed thre message about 5 hours ago, and so I was able to copy and paste it here! here is the original message:

<The worst consequence of a donw period is timing out in a game. BUt, this is avoidable. I realzie that in the best acse scenario, one would not have to worry about this at all. But, donwtime will happen occasionally, and one can easily prepare for it.

Many people, like me, are addicts, and are at the computer almost all the time and can make moevs at almost any opint in the day. For this reason, I do not fear timing out.

but, if you are a person who only makes moves once a day, or maybe twice a day, you are in greater danger of timing out, so you might want to consider playing games that have 3 or 4 days to move (or longer), then consider one of those days to be "emergency only" days. By that I mean pretend it isn't there at all. If you have a 5 day gamne, pretend it is a 4 day game, then if the site goes down for a full day, you have that extra day to make your moves. If you never let your games gte below one day to move, you will not time out even if the site is down for a full day (and it has not yet been done for more than 24 hours).

Is tihs a mild inconveniemnce? Perhaps. But this ios the only site I have seen that has rated turn based games with such a variety to choose from, so I consider it a worthwhile inconvneience. >>>>>>>>
