Why not to Dan, if his also didn't arrive?

I think you said that Dan's didn't arrive but you're awarding dealer points
only to John, Scott, and Mike. Did I misunderstand? Or did Dan's
second-time submission get there?

DS> did Dan's second-time submission get there?

Yes. And got 2 votes, last I counted. :)

I'm really not concerned with points -- I wouldn't know how to send a time stamped copy of when I sent (I use outlook and can see
a hover tip say 15/02/2007 15:22 and a resend (because I wasn't in the first list which is stamped 15:42) whose hover tip says
15/02/2007 19:24 - appologies to my american friends for 15 month years<grin>)

My own inclination is to say that unless there is very clear signs of an unusual 'what-the-hell' happening then its up to the player
to ensure his def arrives. When I wasn't on Tim's second list (with 2 hours to go) I did wonder about sending a group message asking
if anyone else had problems but frankly ....was it worth it?

What I am going to do though, when the round finishes, is to send my def to the group and ask Tim if he receives it via the group -
if he does receive it, then it may be *me* (bonnyjars (AT) yahoo (DOT) co.uk) that his filters are excluding, if he doesn't get it via the
group then it may be my content which is excluded.
