Okay, so - bad news. I'm not going to be able to install Realpolitik on the computers up here. So we can continue at normal pace with manual adjudications and maps only, or we can take a break in the game until I return in early August. Default is that we will continue with the game, no change to the deadline. If all players unanimously want to put the game on hold until I return, then we can do that too. I think most of you are running the game on Realpolitik on your own terminals anyway, so it should be an easy matter to enter the adjudication moves into your local copy of RP...
Please send your votes on this situation with the next orders you submit for DC262 Spring 826.
Thanks -
B.

Correction -
The Scots built A Circinn, not F Circinn. For now, as I'm very rushed here getting set up, here's a new map only. I will probably need help to update the Diplomatic Corp page (Mike/Jason?) as I do not think I can access any .com address from here until I return in early August. Updated .dpy file will follow shortly.
Sorry about the confusion, please bear with me, the Reserves are going to make this a little difficult.
B.

Honored Kings of the Dark Ages -
A bitter northern winter settles over both land and sea, and we see both the shipyards and the barracks hard at work raising new forces for the spring, the time when men go off to war...
All builds are valid, and no retreats of course in a winter season, so we move straight on to Spring. This is the last adjudication that will be copied from both the Gmail and army email accounts. So - if you did NOT successfully receive this adjudication announcement from both the Gmail and Army accounts by midnight tonight - you *NEED* to let me know by sending me an email or letting one of the players that has successfully contacted me at the army address know so they can tell me. An email sent only to the Gmail address equals an NMR until I return on 7 August.
Mike/Jason - there is also a distinct possibility that I will not be able to access the Diplomatic Corps website during the next few seasons of adjudications while I am away training with the Reserves. Is there any possibility that I could get some temporary help updating the game on the DC website during that time?
SPRING 826 will be tenatively set for Thursday, July 16, 1700 GMT+1. There is a possibility that I will have a break in email access for the next few days while I am in transit and getting set up. Do not be alarmed if confirmation of orders is slightly delayed. If by some terrible scenario I am completely without email access or cannot adjudicate at the appointed time, well - worst comes to worst, we will take a break and resume when I return. I doubt that will happen. Expect an email from me to touch base and make contact as soon as I am established at training.
