(Pleading with the developer(s) is a good start!) :-) i.e. there's a reason it works first time - because some kind-hearted soul has spent hours testing and re-testing the build. When it can take 45 minutes to build from scratch, that can be a lot of sitting around - always watching and checking if the thing has bombed. It's like being on-call!
