From 35bdb505dfccc837684c1d687ecb014c1a501b95 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: arcattack Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 00:42:15 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] join bats keep the previous session's log as join.old.log Conn Man's owens-laser crash stack (#35) was in his join.log -- and re-running join.bat deleted it before it could be sent. The bat now rotates instead: join.log -> join.old.log at launch. One generation of history, the exact insurance that would have closed #35 tonight.
