This is kinda a 'taboo' subject to post about, but ya know me, a risk taker. ;D
What it is, is the sending of saved zipped MY files between players.
Some players consider this cheating, and some do not. I'm not posting this to be controversial, but to help bring it out of the dark corners of 'secrecy' for those that may like to participate, or not, whatever the case may be.
This is what it is: A player launches and/or grabs LOs and saves them, usually unplayed and hopefully at 10K, then Zips the MY files and emails them to other players that may be interested in getting the files, so they can play them offline.
I often offer to do this when we are having game server problems and the BFG server is going offline a bunch.
Some of the players that do share MY files do so openly and some prefer to remain anonymous. Either way is OK by me.
Why I am posting this and what I am offering is:
For those that would like to receive MY files to play offline, to post so here and I'll start a list, and any player that likes to email their LOs out to other players can contact you and add you to their list.
AND if you are a player that doesn't mind letting others know you are willing to email your MY files out, to let us know and I'll start a list of those players as well.
You all can contact each other directly, I'm just offering to be the 'list maker'.
I really do not want a debate opened up on this, I'm just offering a service.
If this ends up creating an uproar, just let me know and I can delete this thread if it turns out I made a poor decision with posting about this.
I'm really just trying to help facilitate the contact between players.
Just click the members name and it will take you to their profile, then click "Send Personal Message" to send the member a PM that you would like to receive and or send.

Becky
Connie a.k.a Rebel

Are willing to send your MY files to other players:
