Hello Players and welcome to a standard game of diplomacy!

Alrighty... I believe everything is up and running... so time for a
second welcome. You are playing in dc206 / acrimony... enjoy! I'll
serve you as GM... John Mark Ellsworth at johnmarkellsworth(at)gmail.com.

Again, here are the players and their nations:
Austria: greg / Greg Surname / gregsurname(at)gmail.com
England: TheSki / Andrew Clarke / a_c_2bcool(at)hotmail.com
France: Oden / Daniel Sloane / eagles_fan_07(at)comcast.net
Germany: Samnuva / Sam Buck / Samuel_Buck(at)dalton.org
Italy: Brutus / Kevin Burt / kjb(at)wbhsi.net
Russia: deathblade_penguin / Stephen Lytton / stevelytton(at)hotmail.com
Turkey: jyan / Jyri Syrja / jyjusy(at)hotmail.com

First deadline (Spring 1901 orders) is Wednesday, September 3rd at 9:30
pm. Please have your orders in by then. SEND PRELIMINARY ORDERS! DO
SO EVERY TURN! (I already have three prelims... thanks.) It just
makes life easier for me and insures you have submitted orders. In
emails to me about the game, please be sure to at least put dc206 or acr
as the first thing in your subject line.

Our game page is http://www.diplomaticcorp.com?game_id=dc206. This is
where you can find all information about this game! All adjudications
are posted here as well.

Our game forum is
http://www.diplomaticcorp.com/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=103, and this forum
is just for our game. I believe you have all been subscribed to it by
default... this means any time somebody posts to it, you should get that
cc'd to your email inbox, so you are aware there is a new post. I will
also copy all adjudications to the forum, which means you should receive
adjudications twice - once from me, and once from the forum. This
ensures you are receiving it from two sources automatically, and have
little to no chance that an outgoing mail won't reach you. You can post
to the forum by visiting the site or by emailing to
dc206(at)diplomaticcorp.com. Any mail you send to this list will go to all
seven players and myself.

Again, please be sure to familiarize yourself with my house rules at
http://diplomacy.ellsworthlink.net/jmehouserules.html. I added a little
more to proxy orders... saying all proxy designations must meet my
approval.

GOOD LUCK!

=)
John
