Im playing 2 PBEM games and love it..
The only problem is that I find myself checking my Email

How do you Vets deal with it?
Is there a trick to keep you occupied waiting for your turn?

And it it is a great way to recollect the goings on in that particular game, since I have 5 running right now!

And of course cruising the Forum:D

Ah thats easy! Have about six or seven running at once! Thet way you will always have something being sent to you!

As for keep track of what I am doing in each game....a quick glance at the map is enough for me to remember what I was doing, and what I plan to do. Mind you there is ONE game that I am playing at the moment that no matter what I do I am stuffed.....right Drongo?:rolleyes:
