Have something important you need to remember in a game?
Perhaps a pact or treaty and some of its terms? A mission that needs to be executed in a couple of years?

Method #1
Use ship renaming to make notes. Ships can be renamed and sorted into groups by sorting by fleetnames. Renaming ships beginning with characters like "!" or "@" puts them above alphabetical names.

Method #2
Send your race an in-game message. Like "if they don't change their attitude quick, attack the ARses in 2440". Be sure to re-check that you haven't mailed it to everyone by mistake.

Method #3
Have your wife or girlfriend sit next to you each time you play and have her remember everything for you. For important reminders stimulate her memory occasionally by making such remarks as: "It's a good you aren't playing, because you probably wouldn't remember that" or "It's a good thing one of us has a good memory" Very Happy

hDidn't JRC3 fix that problem?
Well, if not, it is a good way to send out propaganda:
In that case send messages like this to everyone:
"Okay, it is settled. Let's take out his HW in 3 years then!" Twisted Evil

I also think JRC3 fixed the Problem .
I often write inplay message ( Rollplay )
and never was send to the wrong one(with JRC3).

Sheez, has that bug been so long already? Didn't notice it .. well, those ingame messages were not enough anyway to swallow the heavy traffic I usually have in games.
Playing mostly teamgames email is just way better,
