Are there any games going on, and how do I find out about them and possibly
listen in? Thanks,

I am planning to run another SG2 game fairly soon. I have Excel down now that
a lot of the game is automated.

I will make the next game available to onlookers as well as players. I kind of
fell into this one. Roger and Chris wanted to play a game and they both came
to me to referee because of how well I know the rules. It was a fair bit of
work, but I enjoyed it. I'm trying to decide on my next scenario. I have
vehicle rules I want to test out, but I don't know how long it will be to get
them into playtest shape. I think I'll just do another vanilla SG2 game.

I would make the Excel spreadsheet available for general use, but there are
some bugs in Excel that annoy me. The biggest is that labels for a chart get
changed when you unhide a row on a spreadsheet. This meant that when a unit
became visible to another player I had to manually redo all the labels for
that side for the other player's map. This bug, I believe, is fixed in Service
Release 2 of Excel 97. Unfortunately, for reasons I won't go into, I can't get
up to that version until I reinstall Word (yes, Word, not Excel). That
involves digging through my pile of boxes in the storage locker...
