Spring of 09 was played out like a fiddle
To Russia, the Turk's moves were no riddle
The struggle 'tween north - south
A fierce clash at Danube's mouth
With Austria caught tight in the middle

-------------------------------------------

Hey guys,

The titanic struggle between England/Russia and Italy/Turkey continues. Austria keeps on in the tradition of lending red support to the Russians. For now.. =)

With the Spring moves going so smoothly, no retreats are required before the Fall. The Fall 1909 deadline will be set for Friday, January 4th (11:59 PM GMT). As always, if you spot any mistakes in this adjudication, please just let me know.

Also - please don't forget that these are the last few days to sign up for DC's very own tournament, the Winter Blitz. With the speedy deadlines and the gift certificate prize, this one is definitely going to be one for the books. If you haven't signed up for a position yet, my question is Why the heck not?! =) Check out the Winter Blitz page on the website at < www.diplomaticcorp.com>

Cheers!
