Heya folks,
Welcome to Winter Blitz Board 1 of Round 2. (Game WB0821). I'm Former Trout, and I'll be your humble GM for the game. I'm happy to say that most of you on this board know me pretty well already. However, for those that don't, I'll follow your lead and blab a little about my ownself..
I'm a 30 year old Engineer living in the Big Murky of Northern Alberta. I drive a Smartcar and have a dog thats really much smarter than I am. My first game of Dip occurred after we found an old board in a university dorm room, ended up in a fist-fight that got broken up by the cops, and was followed by a second game the very next night. I've pretty much been hooked ever since.
There's not much to say about the schedule of the Blitz - you folks have all experienced round 1. Two reminders if I might, that I don't feel can be mentioned enough:
1. Orders should be copied to (orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com ([email]orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com[/email])). This is CRUCIAL. If, for whatever reason, I am unable to adjudicate then Mike Sims will look in the orders box for what has been submitted. If you don't copy your orders there, you will be NMR'd in this event.
2. NMR's WILL HAPPEN! Please use prelim orders. There are NO grace periods in the Blitz - due to the frantic pace of the schedule.
That's it, easy peasy. Country assignments are listed below - let's get it on!
Spring 1901 orders are due Monday, March 24th (11:59 PM GMT). Cheers!
Trout
