Unable to login to PitBoss game: "attempting to load corrupt save file"

[bullrunner]

Hi all, I've searched the forums and could not find an answer to this. Thanks in advance for your help. The problem I'm experiencing is that I am unable to log in and play my turn in a PitBoss game that just started two days ago. We're on Turn 2 - I was able to play Turn 1 just fine. When I try to log in and play Turn 2, I get the message, "You are attempting to load a corrupt save file. The game will now exit."

Here are my specs:
OS: Max OS X (Snow Leopard)
Version: Civ4 BTS 3.1.9 (through Steam)

Other notes:

• I've played both single player and multiplayer all the time but this is my first PitBoss game.
• I've searched Google and found a thread on the same issue but it doesn't contain a resolution. Link: http://forumplanet.gamespy.com/civilization_iv_tech_support/b49254/5382271/r5382275/
• Other players playing the same game have not reported the same issue.
• The issue happens after I load Civ4 BTS, click Multiplayer, click Direct IP Connection, click Connect (username and IP address are prefilled), select my Civ, click OK, input my password that I set when I logged into the Pitboss for the first time to protect my civ, and click OK. Then it says Transferring Game Data to Hard Drive, that completes and then it says "Initializing" for a few seconds, and then Civ4 quits.
• I've uninstalled and reinstalled Civ4 BTS through the Steam interface and this did not solve the problem. The steps I took were open Steam, right click on Civ4 BTS, select "Delete Local Content," then selected Civ4 BTS and clicked Play, which prompted me to download and reinstall the game.

Has anyone else encountered this issue before? If so, how did you resolve it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
