Many years ago I played a correspondence game (snail mail) against somebody in Poland; it lasted for over 4 years!

I don't think the postal service in Poland in those days was up to much.

Hmm. Well, I see everyone's point here. But for 1/2 an hour? Its more like their waiting for the one second I come late and BAM.And no reminder, only them saying and telling me what a fool I am (😠) and why I didn't put up my vacation flag.
1. I didn't have access to the computer, so when was I supposed to put up my flag? Be psychiotic and realize I would be 1/2 hour late so I should put up my flag? Anyway, I'm not on a vacation, why should I lie about it?

Ah well... I guess I'm just frusterated... I shouldn't be putting this on other people's minds... I just have to let off some steam here. That's the point of foroms, eh?😉
