Hi, most likely you probably didn't give the program long enough to properly save the turn! I always wait a full 30 seconds before exiting the game after hitting the end turn in a PBEM, for this reason! Check the date stamps on the 4 files, most likely they won't match, of course the cmt will not, but the other 3 should always match either exactly, or no more than a second or so off....
