Folks,
I've received a formal complaint about the adjudication from Jon (France.) Since I'm involved, and therefore unable to be completely impartial, I am putting it up for a general vote. I'll put the next turn on hold until this is resolved, and require you all to vote by the standing deadline. Here's the situation:
- Jon sent me a full set of orders for his units (missing coastal designations for all moves involving France.) *Order Set 1*
- I informed Jon that orders required coastal designations to be valid IF there was ANY chance of ambiguity.
- Since the original orders were not ambiguous (the unit ordered to Spain could only go to one coast,) I did not require designations at that time.
- Jon sent me clarification anyway, including coastal designations in his orders. *Order Set 1.5*
- Jon later sent me a new set of PARTIAL orders, changing the Spain move to a fleet that could go to either coast but leaving out coastal designations and not specifying if it was a full set of orders or only a revision of the units mentioned *Order Set 2*
- I received the email and responded within 15 minutes, asking for clarification. I received no reply from Jon, and the deadline was about 4 or 5 hours later.
- I sent out the adjudication as you all saw it, and just today received the complaint from Jon.
Here's what I want a vote on:
1. Should I revise the adjudication to accept a full set of orders, including the orders deemed illegal by the lack of coasts? (Jon claims he made his intent clear, even though he subsequently changed his orders.)
2. Should I revise the adjudication to accept a full set of orders, minus the orders deemed illegal (since it's OFFICIAL game rules)?
3. Should the adjudication stand, as Jon did NOT submit a full set of orders for his final revision?
The dealine stands as Tuesday, 16 September at 7am EST (11am GMT.) Have your votes in or I will consider it an NMR.
