Does your wife set the deadlines?
Should we be sending our moves to her?
If Garry turns in moves in his games, and his wife overrides, which set do I accept?

By the way, we don't vote on deadlines in my games! I simply moved to Friday because a] I made a mistake in my haste before getting out of the country and b] Friday was my intent.
Let's not think that we have consensus deadlines for the future! That isn't how my games roll. I apologize for both the confusion and the delay.
My wife says I can get back to Diplomacy now.

All,
We are simply looking for an Italian retreat tonight (Ben). At that point we will move to Winter which I will look to send out and have a Sunday deadline for. Thanks.

All,
I am back now. Thanks for all of the jokes at my expense. Sorry for the deadline confusion. Tomorrow at 6pm CST was the intention (the 29th). Let's go with that. Final answer.
May take a bit to confirm all of the orders I have received thus far.
For the record Joe, we would not have had 9 NMR's. Some people have chosen to submit orders just to be safe...

There's an EGP on the table for a French solo, with votes due this Fall's moves (Sunday 23:59 GMT). If you've already sent in your orders for this Fall, please send me another email with whether you vote YES or NO for the proposal. The proposal must be unanimous in order to pass. A no vote will be counted as a rejection and the proposal will fail.
Thanks,

You are correct, John. Dulceria will not need to build nor disband this winter (pending his retreat). However, he is -1 SC since the beginning of the game.
On a separate note:
In my adjudications, I present your orders *as written* (copied and pasted). This way, you see the orders exactly the same way as I receive them. (This way, if -- as in the last game I GM'd -- your unit supports an opposing army to go to a province named "Hell", that will show up in the orders -- along with a *Void*, since your enemy presumably didn't order his unit to go to Hell).

| DC 345: F1901 First Year's Progress - Blueraider0 (Oct 27, 2010, 8:59 pm) |
Nerd moment. Back in the late 90s there was a "one hit wonder" phenomenon within Google. The challenge was to find 2 words that, when typed in, yielded only one result. "Trigspor" and "Diplomacy" is now such a wonder! Then again, so is "Trigspor" and "Nude" Wait, that has 3 hits. Victory! (?)
Meanwhile, Adaria is actually an Amazonian vending machine that takes only Adarian cheques. It dispenses either virgins or cacti. It's kind of like Russian Roulette.

[Please note the attached .map file (if I've remembered to attach it). If you are adjudicating at home on RP, you'll have to replace the Anarchy.map file that I sent earlier with this one. Otherwise, you won't be able to build any new units this Winter!]
Autumn 1901 retreats are due tomorrow at 3:00 CST (20:00 GMT). We've got a few.
The Imperial (DRE) army in Marseilles may retreat to Burgundy, Piedmont, or OTB
The Dulcerian army in Rumania may retreat to Galicia, Ukraine, or OTB
The Itean fleet in London may retreat to North Sea, Wales, or OTB.
It's kind of fun to Google your country names. It may or may not say something about you as a person. [Note: I ignored the Democratic Roman Empire and The One Who Will Win, since those phrases show up in a cornucopia of various contexts.]
Dulceria - a Spanish word for a candy shop or sweet shop. and, you know, those supply centers do look kind of sweet and tasty (just ask Zonotrichia).
Zonotrichia - the scientific genus name for a variety of North American sparrows, some of which nest nearby to Warren. I bet he's easily felled with two barrels of birdshot.
Itea - International Technology Education Association. Institute for Taoist Education and Acupuncture. Also a name of towns in Greece. And the genus name of the flowering sweetspire shrub that blooms in July. With a name like this, he could be anything and everything. Judging from 1901, perhaps it means "I'm taking extreme abuse". Safest to poke him full of needles and trim any spindly branches.
Hembria - There is apparently a family surname of Hembria wandering down south in Georgia. I know this because poor ol' Cam left a November 1976 obituary. Hembria. Obituary. Not too promising.
Trigspor - thanks to this game, it has *8* results in Google. We're #1 on the list! The next four results involve adjacent foreign words of "Trigs" and "Por" (or "trig-spor" . And then, predictably, the last three are for porn sites listed as "Trigsporn". Provide your own punchline.
Adaria - this is the fun one. It's a company that provides vending services in and around Toronto! No, it's a girl's name meaning "Virgin". No, wait, it's the name of a cacti and succulents garden in Romania. Hold on. "Adarian Money" is personal finance software. But, no, it's actually just another porn website, this one devoted to pictures of sexy, naked Amazon women. Mr. Maslow, just what do you do with your time? Regardless, I think it sounds like "I dare ya". are you gonna let him talk to ya like that?
Okay, now for the adjudication. Below the adjudication, I list adjustments for Winter (due Friday).
Gaul is reunited! One suspects that in the process Adaria has not been entirely honest. Still, it's a nifty feat that the sexy, naked Amazons have pulled off - earning support from two different allies against two different enemies. So, Mr. Maslow is one of the year's big winners.
The other big winner - making good on his threat to paint the screen zombie green - Mr. Fleming of Zonotrichia. Expect more fluorescent units out of Bulgaria and Sevastopol soon.
One of the side stories here is the diplomatic war between the DRE and Trigspor. Round One goes unambiguously to Trigspor, who wins the Bachelorette-like wooing of Adaria and who secures a vital support in Trieste from the sparrow-people. Thus, what could have ended in +1 for DRE and -1 for Trigspor instead results in -1 for DRE and even-Steven for Trigspor.
In the North, Itea fails to persuade either Hembria or The One Who Will Win to relent. The results are gruesome for the retail furniture chain but yield moderate growth for both halves of the northern alliance.
As we near the end of 1901, there is still plenty of game left to play. It may be time to rearrange some of the alliances that you *think* are running the game.
Fall 1901 Adjudication:
Adaria:
Lvp to Iri
TyS to Tun (*Bounce*)
Gas to Mar
ECh to Lon
Democratic Roman Empire:

Itea:

A Tri S Ser (*Cut*)
A Gre -> Bul (*Bounce*)
Zonotrichia:
A Vienna S A Trieste
A Budapest S A Sevastopol - Rumania
A Sevastopol - Rumania

Looking ahead to Friday, the Winter 1901 adjustments (assuming no off-the-board retreats):
+2: Adaria & Zonotrichia
+1: Hembria & The One Who Will Win
Break-Even: Trigspor
-1: DRE & Dulceria*
-2: Itea
* - On account of the unit disband from S1901, Dulceria has no adjustments unless he retreats off the board.

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing. The shadow, even the darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you - That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding onto something."

I just remembered... there was press... and just for the record, no horse was deployed.
Press:
Rome - 25th July 1901
After relocating the Senate to Rome
only last year the presence of the approaching Adarian fleet has made
Emperor Nathan wary. So yesterday the order came, in triplicate, to move
the Senate back to Venice. Many in the Senate expressed their wish to
stay with the people in Rome, it will be a test of how much power the
Senate has within this "Democratic" Empire as to whether any will stay.
The Emperor himself will remain in his palace in Rome while his armies
are deployed North. He does of course have a fast horse on stand by.

| DC344: New French Président & Deadline Schedule - charlesf (Oct 27, 2010, 5:20 pm) |
Hi guys,
Stuart failed to submit any orders, even within the six hour grace
period. In keeping with my house rules, this leads to the NMRing
player being replaced and the deadline being postponed to allow
the new player to find his footing in the game.
Now, let me explain why I've chosen a zero-tolerance policy for
NMRs. I don't want the effort all participants put into these
games being devalued by such negligence. Particularly since these
are playtests and I don't want the results to be distorted by
NMRs. That's the lesson I've taken away from part contests in
which I allowed NMRs. IMO, it's much better to provide certain
safeguards (mandating preliminary orders, six hour grace periods)
that decrease the frequency of NMRs and - if need be - replace
some players until a committed group is formed. Might lead to the
odd delay early on in a game, but in the long run things are bound
to run smoother.
In any case, I'm glad and relieved to say that Matt Kelly has on
short notice volunteered to take charge of France. He had already
expressed his interest earlier in the position, but Stuart was
faster in getting back to me. Well, now it's Matt at the helm. He
already once helped me out as a replacement (as Sweden in DC279 -
a 1648 variant playtest), equally taking over a challenging
position. Great to have such individuals in the DC community!
In order to allow Matt to gain his footing in the game, I'm
postponing the Spring 1937 deadline until Friday 6 PM CET. Summer
1937 will then be shifted to Sunday 6 PM CET. Especially
considering how a number of players have voiced their preference
for as few delays as possible resulting from this unfortunate turn
of events, I mean to stick to the Wednesday Fall 1937 deadline.
But should any player want that to be shifted to say Thursday, I'm
perfectly happy to do so. Just opting here for the tighter
deadline schedule by default.
In any case, please give Matt a warm welcome. With a flawless DC
NMR record, he's the real deal.
Cheers,
Charles
