Thanks for the link! Quite useful and indeed it looks like I was right! :) By the way, I had to manually approve your email.. which I usually don't (I just delete all the 'pending email') but I saw 'ggambet' which sounded familiar. Please send emails from your registered account next time to avoid getting your mails discarded.. (or if you forgot, no problem, just when you get the automated mail telling you 'your email is waiting for moderation' or whatever, just resend it with your registered account.
