Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

I am very sorry for my rant yesterday.
There is no excuse for it, but as an explanation: it's been one of
those weeks (and it's only Wednesday!). I was going to growl at
someone. It might've been the woman working in the corner store
struggling with the cash register. It might've been the bus driver
who was trying to re-position his bus at the red light while I was
crossing the road. In the end, it was you guys. Sorry.
Thank you all for the support you sent back.

Both Russian units retreat OTB ... as everyone expected. Ho hum.

Stuff attached. Deadline is Thursday at 18:00GMT.

All rant stuff deleted, 'cause ... what's the point.

Listen England and Russia, if you don't want me to GM games again then
email Sims and tell him. I'm happy with that. I'm happy with that
and it'll be my last game as GM. I've had enough of running games
where people walk away and think there's no consequence. There is a
consequence: you're GM wonders why he bothers.
