Hello g00r00!

I've noticed an issue with the PimpWars 1.52 doorgame, both DOS and Linux 
versions.  After someone wins the game, users get a message that user such and 
such has won the game and that the game will automatically re-roll in a few 
days time.

The problem is, the specified day comes and the game does not automatically 
re-roll; it continues to display the same message.  The only way I've found to 
get the game to reset is to delete pimpwars.cfg, pimpwars.ply, and 
pimpwars.msg from the game directory.

Any ideas on what the issue could be?

The Linux version also has an issue with the opening ANSI screen looking like 
it has extra line feeds in it, but that's fairly minor.
