Will the new Sultan get to make a build?

All,
 
It seems our Sultan has gotten swallowed in the sands.  I have heard nothing from him or any of you that he is still around.  I hope this was simply an oversight and that he is well.  However, in accordance with the House Rules, I will have this game re-listed and seek a replacement player for Turkey.
 
My apologies, once again to all of you for the delay.  I will post the build results and we will get started with the Spring 1902 season when a replacement player has been found.
 
Thanks,
     Darryl (GM)

*sigh* It seems that we have lost Josh (Turkey).  His orders are the outstanding set of orders that we have all been waiting on.  Has anyone heard from Josh?
 
Josh, if you are still out there, this is your one and only warning.  If I do not hear from you in the next 24 hours, I will assume you have abandoned the position and immediately begin seeking a replacement.  Also, you may want to consider posting Preliminary Orders.  According to the house rules, should you be late again, you will be removed without any further warnings.
 
Preliminary or Provisional Orders (whatever you are use to calling them) is a good idea for everyone.  I personally always post a preliminary set of orders with my GM in the games I play.  However, I may later change them if the negotiations go a different direction that I expected.  So, I not only advocate of their use, but use them myself as well.
 
Anyway, my apologies to all for the long delay in this Winter Build/Disband season (I hope you all have put it to good use).  But, it seems we are going to be delayed for a little while longer.
 
Thanks,
     Darryl (GM)

My apologies, but occasionally, when you try to "shorten" a deadline, there are those that went away with the original deadline in mind and do not come back until that deadline is due.
 
There are two outstanding sets of orders and I have sent the countries that I am missing orders from personal requests for orders.  So, I will post the Build/Disband Orders as soon as I receive builds those builds.  Or . . . I will begin looking for replacements shortly after the original deadline of Monday, August 24, 2009, 24:00 hrs GMT.
 
Best of Luck,

I have received new build orders from Austria; seems  Dan isn't as isolated as he assumed he would be.
 
I do not want to assume everyone is getting these messages over the weekend.  Still, I already have the majority of your Build orders.  Therefore, I would like to change the Deadline for the Winter Builds to Tuesday (8/1Cool by 24:00 pm GMT.  If anyone has a problem with this please let me know.
 
Thanks,
