Next Deadline:

Spring 1903: 18h00 GMT/UTC, Saturday, 3rd May 2008

Remember that if I receive 7 sets of orders marked 'ADJUDICATE NOW' or 'FINAL ORDERS' then I will attempt to adjudicate early. If a turn is adjudicated early there may be a knock-on effect on future deadlines.

Future Deadlines:

Note that these have changed as a number of players have asked for a shorter turn duration, but there has not been unanimous requests for a reduction below the pre-defined 5-6 day turn duration. 5-day turn durations have therefore been projected:

Fall 1903: 18h00 GMT/UTC, Thursday, 8th May 2008
Spring 1904: 18h00 GMT/UTC, Tuesday, 13th May 2008
Fall 1904: 18h00 GMT/UTC, Sunday, 18th May 2008
