...how to use that damned "send-message-list" sexp.  Every time I try I get the timing screwed up somehow, and it comes off as a mostly disorganized jumble that flys by too fast to read.  So here's your hint that it's the time delays that I need explained. ;)
"I condemn false prophets, I condemn the effort to take away the power of rational decision, to drain people of their free will -- and a hell of a lot of money in the bargain. Religions vary in their degree of idiocy, but I reject them all. For most people, religion is nothing more than a substitute for a malfunctioning brain."  - Gene Roddenberry

"Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few." - George Bernard Shaw

The nuber of milliseconds you input for each new message is counted from the time that the last message started.

Miliseconds, so 1000 ms is a second. You know? Well, using my experiences of Starcraft triggering, miliseconds mostly depend on the speed of the machine, so 1000 miliseconds is not the same time for a Pent III 900, and the Pent IV 2000.
