I'd vote for finding a replacement this early. No plans are set so it should be easy to find a new Russia. Thanks for the heads up. Also, I didn't see Turkey's info below.

Hi,
I'm Christine, I've been involved with online Diplomacy for quite a few years. I've mostly retired from playing but still like to keep my hand in by GMing a game or two. Most of your names are new to me, I look forward to getting to know you all. Please respond to this email so i know I have everyone's email correctly on my mailing list.
If you choose to scroll down to the bottom to read the player list don't forget to come back at some point and read the official type stuff here at the beginning.
Deadlines will be 8 AM CST GMT -6 1400 GMT. I normally start adjudicating at the posted deadline.
A quick rundown of the tournament timing:
This is a fast paced game with short turn around.
Spring deadlines will occur every Monday. Fall deadlines will occur every Thursday, 3 days later.
Retreats and/or Builds will always be due the day after results are out. That is Tuesday for Summer Retreats and Friday Retreats, Builds & Disbands. Autumn Retreats will always be due at the same time as the Winter Adjustments.
There will be NO delays or extensions.
I may adjudicate early if all orders are received marked final ( this mainly applies to the adjustment phases).
While I try not to make mistakes, If at any time you find an error or dispute an adjudication you must contact me ASAP. If any turn passes and there is an error on the board, we play on ??? players have 24 hours from the posting of any adjudication to contest the adjudication.
Email Address:
My email is dawench(at)hotmail.com send all orders to this address.
The tournament has supplied an email address that it is important that you CC all orders to. orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com This not only helps ensure that your orders are received, but it also allows the Tournament committee to step in and adjudicate in case I am unable to. If at any time the TC has to step in and adjudicate for me they will only use orders that are also sent to orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com .
Tournament Rules are posted at http://www.diplomaticcorp.com/tournament.php?display=rules
Anything not covered by the Tournament Rules are covered by the DC House Rules:
