Reporting the data to my excel files from the turn results to researching what I want to do the next turn and then inputting it to send to Randy. Of course I have anywhere from 10-20 actions that are repeated each turn I write.
Even though the game is free, I don't know if I am going to be able to afford to play this game for much longer, based solely upon how much it costs in time to play.
It's very frustrating. If it weren't for Dave, I would have already quit this game.
What is the source of your greatest challenge in speed of getting a turn out? Maybe I can offer some suggestions that would help you.
Do NOT want to see you leave the game.

Except, it appears that it doesn't work with all of the codes, only some of them.
ACK!!!!!!!!!!
Which ones in particular. I tested it with all action codes as thorough as I could. If I missed something let me know and I'll fix it. Easy enough.

:::SIGH:::
Might want to save your turn every few actions. No matter if you're using a program, web page, spreadsheet, etc. doing it just a good rule of thumb.
Do you have Microsoft Excel. I build my turn on that and then xfer it to a notepad format and then load it to the input page...seems to work for me and no chance of losing the turn on the unstable input page. I used to write it there and have lost everything due to hitting the backspace button toooo many times...so I stopped doing it that way.
