What a frustrating game, attacked by 2 from the start and no help from my neighbours.... My dip skills must be failing.....I must try harder! Well done all who go into what must be the end game, stop the solo!

Hi All,During my 80-mile bike ride yesterday (fundraiser for Diabetes), I found myself nearing exhaustion and my thoughts drifting wildly. Many of my Dipl games into mind and I found myself strategizing with myself, using maps stored in my memory and having pseudo-conversations with my fellow players. I seriously needed Water and Food!
All in all, it was a fun ride through some beautiful countryside and 2 mountain canyons! Wow!
We now say goodbye to the Archers and the Nomads. A well-fought game, but at least one had accepted their fate a year ago. Congrats Max & Garry, see you next game.

DEADLINE FOR RETREATS is Tuesday 8/21 at 5PM. 
2 Retreats are necessary, and one auto-disband.Magicians: A Grendel -> Imm, or OTBLeprechauns: A Lubrick -> Mer, Fitz, or OTB

Nomads: A Kingdom of Hearts - Paras Derval (*Disbanded*)
We are now facing a LONG hiatus.  One player will be out of town until the end of the month, with very spotty access. I will process deadlines until the vacationing player is affected. I will be on a Caribbean island from 9/1 -> 9/9, with little or no access. People, *this* is the way Vacations SHOULD be! Disconnect, log off, unwind, and de-stress.
