Here are my experience in syncing logs, especially from
M/M and M/2 operations.
1. Set up each PC with its own ID letter. This is very
important! Otherwise it is very hard to tell which
computer logged what.
2. If something gets out of sync during the contest
it is too time consuming to fix it. Most of the time
it is better to live with it during the contest and
concentrate to make Q's instead of syncing the logs.
3. After the contest use Post to extract a log from
each PC using its own id letter. Fix all typos etc on each
seperate log. Merge all the extracted logs into one log
using Post.
