The deadline is now over 3 days overdue, and I do not have Persian orders. I did, however, hear from Jon on Tuesday or Wednesday. He informed me of things being chaotic and that he would have orders to me in half an hour. I have not heard from Jon since.

So, following my house rules, I am declaring Persia abandoned and will post the need for a replacement on the diplomaticcorp site.

Given the brief contact from Jon, I will re-accept him (as his own replacement, I suppose), provided he offers sufficient reason justifying that he will be reliable in future turns (really, an earnest, "I'll do better" should be enough).

Or, if somebody else takes over Persia first... they will become the new Shah. If there is a replacement player, I will give the new Persian a full week to infiltrate your alliances and make a diplomatic nest whence Persia can grow and prosper and hopefully even solo.

I appreciate your patience.
