You mean the message board there? I'm not having a problem myself, but I guess it could be that the website cookies aren't saved on your machine...

No, I cannot even get to the site. My guess is it must be something to do wtih me being in Turkey.

Goverment censorships maybe? Do you want me to email you the content of the pages?

Turkey won't let you on the site? I have yet to hear that before. I would be curious as to why this is. You can access this site, but not that one. Strange.

I can get to most any sites, but because of the slow connects from Turkey back to the real world, the web provider might have a timeout rule or something in effect.

Not that I've ever heard of such a thing, mind you, but it seems like something like that. It shows me starting to connect, but then dies. It's been like that since the first time I tried a couple of months ago.

3ric,

If it's not a lot of trouble, I would be grateful.

I'll be back in the States (Louisiana) in October and putting up with this 3rd world internet service will be history! :D (Provided that Louisiana isn't 3rd world....)

They have a better shot of joining NAFTA! Turks don't make good Germans! :)

They were gracious enough not to know how to censor the e-mail sent with the site data from 3ric. :)

Thanks very much, btw, I will definately check them out soonest! Very impressive!

dola.
Dutch, I forgot a ":)".

3ric, if you're reading this, since it is basically on topic as well, I'm testing the utility with FOF2 and so far I have some recomendations on renaming the column (if that is possible.)

Sure! I'll happily listen to any recommendations, especially on FOF2 since I don't have it anymore and am unable to test properly on that format.

Well, the way the Turks talk about the Germans and when I lived in Germany, the way the Germans talked about the Turks, I would guess they would be very, very bad Germans.

It's no wonder they lost the first world war if they both hated each other so much!

3ric, great.
So far, it seems changing draft files works. I've been editing a "borrowed" file through your utility and I haven't noticed other problems then the knowing endurance=2 bug.
It seems there are 3 hidding ratings, 1 for passing, 1 for rushing and 1 for kickoffs.
More to come later though...

Dutch, I was referring to the big number of Turkish immigrants in Germany. In about 50 years there will be about 10 million of them (if I'm not misscalculating and exagerating(sp?).)
<s>Since you used to have your own website with fof files: do you have that draft import enhancement for fof2 to create random endurance ratings? I can't find that file and I'd really like to use that to support the testing I was referring to towards 3ric.</s>

EDIT: forget the last sentance, I just found the utility...
