Thanks Mike.  I certainly hadn’t noticed the ‘remove canal’
one.  Currently printing out the rules again for a more leisurely look!

No, a canal option was not specified.  Thus my
revision.  Tho I wanted to be clear that joining Nap to Tun was still a
valid canal creation, cuz when you pinch off two water spaces a canal is left
by default.  In this case, we connected continental land to water on both
sides, so a canal would not naturally exist like that unless ordered. 
 
My
interpretation, is yes, you can order simply the removal of a canal.  e.g.
remove canal Con.  Or, he even goes to the extent of saying you can change
an endpoint of a canal if a space would otherwise have 3 or more coasts. 
(it can happen).
 
This
is the first time I've tried AceRunner's ruleset.  They're more thorough
and allow for more options, but are also harder to grasp, and I think, need a
little bit of editing to make them exhaustive of the possible scenarios.
 
New
map attached!  All that's changed are the coasts in Venice.

Hi Mike.  I had assumed that the ‘canal’ included in the
report was ordered by the player (in this case Austria; is that not the case?
 
Also, AceRunner’s modifications of the rules include the phrase
“A Seismic order can cause a coastal province to be divided into two or more
coasts by ...  the deletion of a canal or strait.”  As you understand
it, does that refer obscurely to the effect of a normal Connect and Separate
order, or does it permit a different sort of order (eg “Remove the waterway
through Constantinople”?)
 
Thanks,  Pete

Venice should have EC / WC, not a canal.  When joining a
land province to a water on the opposite side, it becomes coasts.  When
joining two lands pinching off two waters, it becomes a strait by
default.  I’ll fix it on the map tomorrow.

Turk Army Serbia is disbanded, having nowhere to retreat! 
This means there's no summer, and we move right along to fall.  Due next
Wed 12/21, 3pm Central!
Note, I have had a hard time reaching Daniel at his home email address. 
If I don't have confirmation from him that he's got this, I'll put off the turn
till I do.
