?

As another data point, mine are still all blue and I completed my sweep within the first 29 hours.

As a side note, it is good practice to always listen to the operator's routine for a short time before jumping into the pile.

Yesterday I made 12 of the 13 colonies and the TM extra.? This morning when I started it up, only the colony that I caught after midnight shows in blue. I grabbed my last colony and it now it shows the two colonies only in blue.? When I close the window, the very nice report does show all of the colony contacts that I have made this year.? Is this intended, or should it be showing all of the contacted colonies for this year in blue?? I did download again the Countries and restarted ACLog with the same results.

I was trying to get the last 3 colonies, and would click on the Green (uncontacted) colony and try for a bit and if unsuccessful, just click on the next colony I was looking for.? I got my butt chewed by the colony operator of K2C.? I clicked in on Green K2C in the ACLog window and hit him with my call when he called "CQ K2C Colonies".? He relied "K4EES, is? a 6 callsign?"? I think he wanted to add "jerk" at the end.?? I told him no and asked if he was playing the 'Numbers game'.? He said he was and, of course, I apologized.? But, he didn't say he was calling for 6's on that exchange....? the only one I had heard.
