Yikes! I did miss a memo - finally poked that section of the forum and it seems pretty clear.... =p
SEND TO:
ACTIVEGAMES@ALAMAZE.COM
Name the email like:
136_AN_T1
attach the excel file with the same name
check your sent email files to make sure it really went through OK
For your very first submission, i would suggest you have someone not in your game take a look at your orders. So many mistakes just seem to happen even with experienced players.

I have to chime in and say how awesome the online order entry is! Wow, it was so much better than I expected. It caught two major and one minor screw up on my turn. This is a major step for Alamaze. Wow, great job Uncle Mike!!!

Please do not take any of my comments as a personal insult or as a criticism of the game 'Alamaze', which I very much enjoy. Rather, I hope that my personal insight and unique perspective may, in some way, help make 'Alamaze' more fun, a more successful financial venture, or simply more sustainable as a long-term project. Anyone who reads this post should feel completely free to ignore, disregard, scorn, implement, improve, dispute, or otherwise comment upon its content.

It is really cool how you can see the changing gold during the turn.
It is a huge help!

The online order entry program is, indeed, quite spectacular.

The explanations of why an order fails is a great teaching tool for the newer players while a reminder to the more experienced player that he is not - yet - perfect.

How does one get access to this tool? I sent a request into customer service but have received no response at all. I thought I read somewhere on the forum that this is what you do, but then I see other people posting for access to the tool. Rather confusing.
On a related issue, how does one use this forum to know the proper administrative steps versus the "undesired but effective work arounds" that people use? Is there a forum subsection that catagorizes, catalogs, and instructs the user base? I see a lot of stuff scattered throughout. Also, in the old pegasus site, some of the links seem to send me to some Chinese "wayback machine" site. Is that supposed to happen? Other old Pegasus links seem to work just fine, though, so not sure how much of this is my browser.......
