Indians? Aren't they nomadic? And if so why am I unable to see those units on the board and order them around? Or is that the issue...I WAS ordering them around and managed to do so soooo effectively that I led them to extinction too? I don't know if my fragile psyche can handle being the bumbling leader who oversaw TWO genocides.
Sigh. Maybe the FAILed was directed at me.

I don't know about you guys but I find Mike's capitalization of the word "FAILed" suspicious... It might be a suggestion that a

Fairy
Archer
Indian
Leprechaun

alliance is secretly plotting... I for one will not tolerate someone just dropping Indians willy-nilly into the game at this point and I think it's a little politically insensitive to suggest it


all kidding aside, hope the surgery goes well Mike. I've considered LASIK for years (my prescription is horride, -11 in one eye and -11.75 in the other) so I'll be asking you in a month or so how you like it

Hi All,Many apologies. I had one request for a deadline extension. The request was for one day, but I am having LASIK surgery this afternoon, so I probably won't be back on a computer until late tomorrow at best. Hopefully all goes well and I can get the results processed tomorrow afternoon, otherwise they will have to wait until Friday. If things go badly (ugh!), then I'll have my wife process the moves and I'll look for a replacement GM.

One thing I can tell you is that All Draw Proposals FAILed.  A very early NO vote killed them off. So be prepared to keep playing!
Thanks for you patience and understanding.
