ok now that i have found the link...it says this...

Creating a Debug Recording
All Platforms
Use your shell to pass some command line arguments to armagetron:

To record: armagetronad --record filename
To playback: armagetronad --playback filename [--fast-forward SECONDS]

where filename is the name of the file to be recorded to / played back.

(On windows, you can issue shell commands by entering them in startmenu->run. Remember to give the full path to armagetronad.exe if you do that.)

is "Your Shell" the com key (~) because if it is..i tried the command armagetronad --record ArmagetronAdvancedDebugRecording.aarec and it says "command armagetronad unknown..so i need to know what "Your Shell" is lol.

Read down just a section or two farther and you will see a Windows header under that it says:
"The installer creates links in the start menu to record/playback to/from a file called ArmagetronAdvancedDebugRecording.aarec that is located directly on your desktop. To attach it on the forum, you'll need to either rename it to have an accepted extension (best choice: ArmagetronAdvancedDebugRecording.aarec.not.zip) or, better, really compress it with a zip program like WinZip or WinRar.

As of version 0.2.8.3 and the test versions for that, you can play back a recording simply by doubleclicking on it. "

If all you want to do is record as you play then go into start menu and under armagetron there should be something along the lines of armagetron advanced record.
