This problem randomly happens when playing in a language with a wide character set (most common seems to be Russian):

> exception: System.ArgumentException: String length is too long to fit in single byte header

This was reported to me for the first time shortly after 0.9.1. And the good news is that I did manage to fix it yesterday and so a fix for this saving error is coming in the next Thrive patch. Right now there is scheduled to be a hotfix for Thrive on Wednesday.
