I think the trouble is that for most of us, the issue is aethetic rather 
than actually problematic, so there isn't any problem to solve.   I like 
the recent suggestion to have
werewolf board 2 (###.####) vote from flig **
I think it will solve sorting issues.  This allows me to filter on 
"(004." to see only turn 4 info.  That will help me figure out the logic 
at the end of the game based on earlier activity. 

If the counter were
werewolf board 2 (c004.0001) chat from flig **
then I could sort on "004." to get all the turn info -- does gmail have 
issues with the "." being a wildcard like "?" (I'm thinking of the VI 
editor where .=anycharacter)  But I think the word chat in the subject 
line is enough for me when I filter and I don't need the extra character 
in the turn counter.  Others seem to like it.
