PTW 127 pbem i am playing my first game of pbem..i see a new toolbar(?) in upper right hand corner. first column is team color followed by name then a box that is black but white when clicked on, followed by a triangle and two more boxes..i looked in the manual but could not find what this is...esp curious about box after name-click on turns white- and the other tow boxes at the right hand corner.

thanks in advance

Not really used in PBEMs, if I recall correctly. I know they do show your score up there, instead of having to go to another screen. I'm thinking one of the boxes is a 'timer box' used for turnless MP games. But it's been so long since I've MP'd that I'm not sure anymore.

You don't really need it at PBEM's. With the triangle, you can open close this menu. If it's open, you can see your opponents, the points and which are human ones.
