New Faerie!!! - offdisc   (May 09, 2012, 9:52 am)
Since the Faeries had no retreats, there was no deadline change.
However, one of our illustrious members didn't notice he had a retreat, so I made the GM decision to push the deadline (plus I didn't get home until after midnight last night and wasn't about to process anything other than snores).

Of course you'll get an updated map with the retreats --- as long as I remember to attach it. Smile

Chris, would you mind sending an email to Jerome to bring him up-to-date with your game history. Not that important... I'm sure everyone else will do the task for you. Wink
By the way, Chris, do you want to stay on the game Mailing List or should I remove you?

Subject: DC406: Fall 06 Results! Hi All,We have officially entered the mid-game phase of our game. This is the phase when final alliances are usually made, when shaky alliances fall apart, and when the mettle of a GM is tested! How is the GM involved? This is the phase when orders aren't always checked carefully, when extensions are 'meant' to be sent but forgotten, when players start dropping out of contact, and when tough decision need to be made. I was hoping this game would skip this phase and proceed directly to endgame, but alas on a board this large, that would be near impossible. And so we suffer our first NMR power, most likely an Abandonment.  I tried several times to reach the affected party, but to no avail. However, the game must move on. We are already looking for a replacement player who knows his time will be fleeting in the next couple months and is sticking it out, but would like someone to take his position.  Trying to find 2 replacements at the same time is a death knell for a game and the rest of you shouldn't suffer that fate. The decision, following in Mike Sims' precedent, is to move forward with the abandoned party in Civil Disorder until a brave soul steps in to claim the crown. I will post another message to the Light Brigade attempting to locate our Knight in shining armor! This is also the year to say Goodbye to 2 powers: Rogues and Magicians.  Thank you to Warren and Mark!

Subject: DC406: Fall 06 Results!


Hi All,We have officially entered the mid-game phase of our game. This is the phase when final alliances are usually made, when shaky alliances fall apart, and when the mettle of a GM is tested! How is the GM involved? This is the phase when orders aren't always checked carefully, when extensions are 'meant' to be sent but forgotten, when players start dropping out of contact, and when tough decision need to be made.

I was hoping this game would skip this phase and proceed directly to endgame, but alas on a board this large, that would be near impossible.
And so we suffer our first NMR power, most likely an Abandonment.  I tried several times to reach the affected party, but to no avail. However, the game must move on. We are already looking for a replacement player who knows his time will be fleeting in the next couple months and is sticking it out, but would like someone to take his position.  Trying to find 2 replacements at the same time is a death knell for a game and the rest of you shouldn't suffer that fate. The decision, following in Mike Sims' precedent, is to move forward with the abandoned party in Civil Disorder until a brave soul steps in to claim the crown. I will post another message to the Light Brigade attempting to locate our Knight in shining armor!

This is also the year to say Goodbye to 2 powers: Rogues and Magicians.  Thank you to Warren and Mark! You both persevered under tough conditions and I thank you for continuing to play even when it seemed hopeless.  Well done!

Greetings all,I understand that an error was made in the results description.  I blame this on static across the Internet!  I do owe the Magicians some humble apologies, and we all owe the Wizards a hale and hearty Goodbye.

There was also a question about how Draws are handled. Draw proposals can be submitted at any time, and they will be announced as quickly as possible. The results will be tallied and announced in the following Results phase, at which time the slate is wiped clean. The vote must be UNANIMOUS! A single NO vote, or any abstention, will results in a vote FAIL.  (NMR powers obviously do not participate and thus are not counted as abstained).

Mike

Greetings all,I understand that an error was made in the results description.  I blame this on static across the Internet!  I do owe the Magicians some humble apologies, and we all owe the Wizards a hale and hearty Goodbye.

There was also a question about how Draws are handled. Draw proposals can be submitted at any time, and they will be announced as quickly as possible. The results will be tallied and announced in the following Results phase, at which time the slate is wiped clean. The vote must be UNANIMOUS! A single NO vote, or any abstention, will results in a vote FAIL.  (NMR powers obviously do not participate and thus are not counted as abstained).

I was missing a set of retreats last night (plus I got home REALLY late), so I pushed the retreat deadline, which means the Build deadline will also push to tomorrow.
New Map, Retreat results, and Adjustment values wil be releases later today.


Still, I think we can keep the Spring deadline for next Tuesday, don't you? In the meantime, get to know Jerome. He seems like a nice enough guy!

Hi All,We have officially entered the mid-game phase of our game. This is the phase when final alliances are usually made, when shaky alliances fall apart, and when the mettle of a GM is tested! How is the GM involved? This is the phase when orders aren't always checked carefully, when extensions are 'meant' to be sent but forgotten, when players start dropping out of contact, and when tough decision need to be made.

I was hoping this game would skip this phase and proceed directly to endgame, but alas on a board this large, that would be near impossible.
And so we suffer our first NMR power, most likely an Abandonment.  I tried several times to reach the affected party, but to no avail. However, the game must move on. We are already looking for a replacement player who knows his time will be fleeting in the next couple months and is sticking it out, but would like someone to take his position.  Trying to find 2 replacements at the same time is a death knell for a game and the rest of you shouldn't suffer that fate. The decision, following in Mike Sims' precedent, is to move forward with the abandoned party in Civil Disorder until a brave soul steps in to claim the crown. I will post another message to the Light Brigade attempting to locate our Knight in shining armor!

This is also the year to say Goodbye to 2 powers: Rogues and Magicians.  Thank you to Warren and Mark! You both persevered under tough conditions and I thank you for continuing to play even when it seemed hopeless.  Well done!

DC406: slight delay - offdisc   (May 04, 2012, 1:42 am)
Hi All,We are missing one set of orders from a fairly significant power. I will give them until Sunday to get moves in, otherwise it's NMR time. We also are looking for a replacement for a different player whose RL has invaded his Dip time. The Light Brigade request will go out tomorrow.

Regardless of all this, the Fall Adjudication will be released NO LATER than Sunday night, so you can start your week off with fresh moves and a fresh mind!
Thanks for your patience,

DC406: No more moves! - offdisc   (Apr 25, 2012, 11:56 am)
Hi All,
I have returned!  I survived Disney with several children, some related, others 'barely'.  I needed last night to begin recovery and withdrawal.
I will process the moves tonight.  I have ALL sets in hand, so no more moves for this turn will be accepted.

The doors are closed, the mailbox is full.

DC406: Deadline Extension!!!! - offdisc   (Apr 18, 2012, 6:29 pm)
I've received many sets of orders! Woo Hoo!!

But I also received a request for an extension through the weekend.

New Deadline is Tuesday, 4/24 (at) 5PM MST.

I will let you all know right now that the deadline will actually be extended until at least 10 PM (and probably until Wednesday) since my flight doesn't land in Denver until 9:30.  I doubt I'll be in any mindset to process moves. Smile  But you never know, so don't push the deadline too far.

DC406: Deadline reminder - offdisc   (Apr 18, 2012, 12:57 pm)
Hi All,
I only received one request for an extended deadline, but that included "forget this if I'm the only one". So I'm considering it forgotten.

Deadline remains **tomorrow** Thursday 4/19 (at) 5PM MST. 


That being said, I have received a total of only 4 sets of orders! Come on peeps... either get 'em in, or request the extension!
Since I'm travelling this weekend and I've given the option to extend, I'm not going to be very lenient on lateness this round. Hate to see the board go mostly NMR at this point in the game.

DC406: Winter 05 (FINALLY!!!!) - offdisc   (Apr 15, 2012, 3:53 pm)
Hi All,One would think that the GM of a game subtitled: Old Dogs, New Tricks, would have learned something by now.One would be wrong.
On a weekend where the deadline has already been pushed and promises of quick turnover made, but more importantly, when US taxes need completing and filing, your ever-brilliant GM decided to upgrade his laptop. Nothing extreme, just a new hard drive --- a shiny quiet SSD!  Ooooohhhhhh!  Clone existing drive, remove, plug in SSD, go!  
Yeah, that would have been nice.As my wife said, upon returning home to discover a bed full of screws and parts, "Simple? It's never simple! That's why EVERY time you try to fix something on the computer, it turns into a 3 day project and a handful of gizmos you're not sure where they came from." She's not very technical, but she is observant. And just to clarify, she specified "on the computer", but really that applies to anything more advanced than a bicycle.

So, I finally got the OLD hard drive to work again (yeah, Windows even stopped recognizing that one! Lovely!) and processed the moves and finished my taxes before resuming my quest to get the damn new SSD installed. No reason the rest of you should suffer for my bare competence.

Deadline for Spring 06 moves will be Thursday 4/19.  I will be on vacation (with my laptop, but not constantly monitoring) from 4/20 -> 4/24, enjoying family time at Disneyworld.  I will process retreats on Friday, and then Fall moves won't be due until the following Friday. 
If Thursday is too quick, let me know and we'll push the deadline to next week.

Unfortunately, I received several adjustments late this morning, after I had left for work. I cannot load RW onto my work PC (no access to the registry), so the move process will have to wait until tomorrow morning.

Yes, more delays and the next move deadline will push again, probably until Thursday. But I thought it better than 5 people missing their adjudications.
