One of the reasons that DD Month (YY)YY is used is to make it clear to Americans that the date is not in the MM DD (YY)YY. Otherwise there would be no need to spell out the month. It's a shame that most American places that I have seen do not also extend the courtesy and merely stick with MM DD (YY)YY rather than use Month DD (YY)YY to make it clear to the rest of the world what the intended date is.

Either we have a forum hack, or the overlord indeed changed his name from randy to randi.

The boss does one little thing and people start thinking it's the end of the world.
If it were a hack, (s)he'd have done something about it by now.

What makes you think that? Some people actually need to sleep and work throughout most of the day.

For all we know, it could be just a forum software bug... just like how some versions of Doom changed the letter "Y" to "I" ("Press I to quit"). :D :D :D

If you have a cookie that is still valid, it might be possible to miss that. Depends on the software though, and what checks it does or forgets to do.

1) Why would you "replace" ammo?
2) I think replacing only works for spawn functions, such as the level start "THINGS" definitions and ACS spawning, not positive though. I know certain things, such as player weapons and player classes, can't be replaced with just DECORATE code; unless you do it in a special way. KEYCONF for sure, for either case, has to get involed, whether you do it the old way or the new way. And if you're doing what I think you're doing with ammo, it will involve weapons, which will involve players... so...

That code fragment is so incomplete that it's absolutely impossible to see what went wrong. Most likely a user error that's not obvious from what you posted.
