Hi guys,

I trust you share my relief that after the recent turmoil, Matt Kelly, a player who hasn't NMRed once in 13 games, has kindly stepped forward and taken over the Swedish realm.

In the interest of getting the game on track again, I'm scheduling the winter dealine for Tuesday, 6 PM CET. Unless anyone objects, I'll from this point onwards not go with the past Wednesday/Friday routine, but rather try to adhere to a Monday/Wednesday schedule.

Liebe Grüsse,

Charles
