Alright... so today's adjudication is an educational opportunity in the strictness of Winter Blitz rules and the it-falls-on-the-shoulders-of-the-player-even-when-the-GM-is-totally-out-of-touch interpretations. Explanations in a minute...

F1905R:
German A Kiel - Ruhr
German A Warsaw - Ukraine


W1905:
England: Remove F Berlin
France: Build waived
Germany: Remove A Ukraine
Remove F Helgoland Bight
Italy: Remove A Apulia
Russia: Build A Moscow
Build F St Petersburg(nc)
Turkey: Build A Smyrna


So, Germany submitted a retreat order but failed to include an adjustment order... and as the rules state, Fall Retreats and Winter Adjustments are adjudicated simultaneously. The Ukrainian army and Helgoland fleet were disbanded in accordance with tournament rules on NBRs. I will check with the tournament moderators to see whether this will lead to an NMR in club stats or not.
France is away from home and is using an alternate email address... or, at least he did so for Fall 1905. The problem is: I didn't realize until now that this inconvenience would extend until today. Consequently, I only emailed the Fall adjudication to his usual inbox. A gentle, kind, and loving GM would postpone the adjudication and give France a second chance. But a Winter Blitz tournament GM would note that: (a) the adjudications were posted to the DC website for all the public to behold, and (b) it is the player's responsibility to contact the GM if he has not received the adjudication. In short, the tournament does not allow for leniency, no matter how much the GM can empathize with the player. France NBRs.

S1906 is on Monday!
