Hi everyone,

Please give a hearty welcome to Bret who is stepping in to helm the forces of the rising sun. Bret has been good enough to take up the position and allow us to keep this baby running. His email is bret_pollack(at)hotmail.com ([email]bret_pollack(at)hotmail.com[/email])

We have an interesting situation before us now, timing-wise. I'd like to give Bret at least a couple days to negotiate - but we have a couple players that will be without access from Nov 20 to Nov 28.

So I'd like to reschedule the Spring 1866 deadline for the middle of that time period. I realize that gives an adjudication in the middle of two players absences, but hopefully this will be acceptable due to the 're-do' nature of this turn. If not, just let me know and we can revise the deadline. Otherwise, please have any revised orders in by Friday, Nov 23rd (11:59 PM GMT.)

Thanks again for the patience everyone!

Not anymore:
- LSU lost

Only a Saints victory can make this weekend good

- OKLAHOMA OPENS ON BROADWAY WITH WIDE ACCLAIM AND FANFARE!!
- TURKISH NAVY VESSELS DISGUISED AS LEIDERHOSEN FREIGHTS SLIP INTO GREECE
- BRITISH HIGH SOCIETY REELS AS INDIAN SPICES ARE BLOCKADED BY RUSSIAN/DUTCH/CHINESE EMBARGO
- BRAZILIAN MEN FIND OUT THAT SOMETIMES A HAVANA CIGAR IS JUST A HAVANA CIGAR

-------------------------------------------------

Another bloodbath in the Fall of 1866.  If you are Britain or the Confederates, ask not for whom the bell tolls - it tolls for thee.  Many automatic disbands as a result of the Fall orders, and some retreats as well.  Britain owes three retreats, Confederates owe one, and Japan and Brazil both owe one as well.  Deadline for Early Winter 1866 retreats will be set for Friday, December 7th (11:59 PM GMT) please.

Which brings us to some fun points:

1.  I think we can squeeze one more turn in before Christmas.  Ideally, however, I would like to play through - with a few days off for the holiday itself.  I need to know if this is all right with everyone though - or if some of us are either going on trips or know that they won't be checking their email regularlay the last couple weeks of December.  Please let me know how I can best fit the deadlines to your schedule.

2.  Sadly, I have to announce that we are losing another of our original players.  Russian Rob has plans and will be away and out of touch for three or four weeks.  Rather than delay the game, he has chosen to step down gracefully and allow a replacement to come on.  As of Early Winter 1866, we will have a NEW Russian Rob - Rob Ackerley.  His email address is rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca ([email]rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca[/email])

I'd like to gratefully welcome New Rob to the game, and wish Original Rob best of luck on his near travels.  Thanks for bringing your best to the game - to both of you.  =)

That's all I have for now though.  Please just correct me if you spot any of my common errors.  Cheers!

-------------------------------------------------

Another bloodbath in the Fall of 1866. If you are Britain or the Confederates, ask not for whom the bell tolls - it tolls for thee. Many automatic disbands as a result of the Fall orders, and some retreats as well. Britain owes three retreats, Confederates owe one, and Japan and Brazil both owe one as well. Deadline for Early Winter 1866 retreats will be set for Friday, December 7th (11:59 PM GMT) please.

Which brings us to some fun points:

1. I think we can squeeze one more turn in before Christmas. Ideally, however, I would like to play through - with a few days off for the holiday itself. I need to know if this is all right with everyone though - or if some of us are either going on trips or know that they won't be checking their email regularlay the last couple weeks of December. Please let me know how I can best fit the deadlines to your schedule.

2. Sadly, I have to announce that we are losing another of our original players. Russian Rob has plans and will be away and out of touch for three or four weeks. Rather than delay the game, he has chosen to step down gracefully and allow a replacement to come on. As of Early Winter 1866, we will have a NEW Russian Rob - Rob Ackerley. His email address is rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca ([email]rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca[/email])

I'd like to gratefully welcome New Rob to the game, and wish Original Rob best of luck on his near travels. Thanks for bringing your best to the game - to both of you. =)

That's all I have for now though. Please just correct me if you spot any of my common errors. Cheers!

I would like to propose a DIAS for this game.
 
I am tired of the constant stream of replacement players.

-------------------------------------------------

Another bloodbath in the Fall of 1866.  If you are Britain or the Confederates, ask not for whom the bell tolls - it tolls for thee.  Many automatic disbands as a result of the Fall orders, and some retreats as well.  Britain owes three retreats, Confederates owe one, and Japan and Brazil both owe one as well.  Deadline for Early Winter 1866 retreats will be set for Friday, December 7th (11:59 PM GMT) please. 

Which brings us to some fun points:

1.  I think we can squeeze one more turn in before Christmas.  Ideally, however, I would like to play through - with a few days off for the holiday itself.  I need to know if this is all right with everyone though - or if some of us are either going on trips or know that they won't be checking their email regularlay the last couple weeks of December.  Please let me know how I can best fit the deadlines to your schedule. 

2.  Sadly, I have to announce that we are losing another of our original players.  Russian Rob has plans and will be away and out of touch for three or four weeks.  Rather than delay the game, he has chosen to step down gracefully and allow a replacement to come on.  As of Early Winter 1866, we will have a NEW Russian Rob - Rob Ackerley.  His email address is rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca ([email]rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca[/email])

I'd like to gratefully welcome New Rob to the game, and wish Original Rob best of luck on his near travels.  Thanks for bringing your best to the game - to both of you.  =) 

That's all I have for now though.  Please just correct me if you spot any of my common errors.  Cheers!

-------------------------------------------------

Another bloodbath in the Fall of 1866. If you are Britain or the Confederates, ask not for whom the bell tolls - it tolls for thee. Many automatic disbands as a result of the Fall orders, and some retreats as well. Britain owes three retreats, Confederates owe one, and Japan and Brazil both owe one as well. Deadline for Early Winter 1866 retreats will be set for Friday, December 7th (11:59 PM GMT) please.

Which brings us to some fun points:

1. I think we can squeeze one more turn in before Christmas. Ideally, however, I would like to play through - with a few days off for the holiday itself. I need to know if this is all right with everyone though - or if some of us are either going on trips or know that they won't be checking their email regularlay the last couple weeks of December. Please let me know how I can best fit the deadlines to your schedule.

2. Sadly, I have to announce that we are losing another of our original players. Russian Rob has plans and will be away and out of touch for three or four weeks. Rather than delay the game, he has chosen to step down gracefully and allow a replacement to come on. As of Early Winter 1866, we will have a NEW Russian Rob - Rob Ackerley. His email address is rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca ([email]rob_ackerley(at)yahoo.ca[/email])

I'd like to gratefully welcome New Rob to the game, and wish Original Rob best of luck on his near travels. Thanks for bringing your best to the game - to both of you. =)

That's all I have for now though. Please just correct me if you spot any of my common errors. Cheers!
