ok,

i've checked the listings again.

somehow, one of the entries i
tried made it in..

but the input file is truncated..

so i've put the link to
the non-corrupt file in the
description..

could it be a file size issue?
the corrupt file is about 1meg,

the correct size is 2.1megs..

i've had problems with uploads
over 600k...

Are you sure you zip the file before you upload it?

2.1 Mb for a zipped input file seems somewhat large. :wink:

the file size is actually 2.3megs zipped,

and uncompressed it is 28megs,
so i guess it doesn't compress that well
compared to other input files..

i'm using a mouse instead of keyboard,
so that could account for the larger size
of the replay also..

...yeah, that'd do it. Analog controls make big .inps make my connection unhappy. 8O
