Hello Gang,

Okay so here's the scoop. Matt (Germany) apparently sent his orders to me, but they have been lost along the way.

Obviously the game will change significantly as a result of Germany's misfortune, so I have a dilemma. On one hand, rules are rules, and I have not received orders from Germany. On the other hand, assuming that orders were sent, there is a clear injustice being done to Germany and potentially any other players that may have dealings with Germany.

So I'm going to do the obvious thing I think.... and pass this dilemma on to you, the players.

The question is simple. Do we allow Germany to build for 1901?

I need an answer from ALL players (except Matt 'cause I know his vote already). The vote must be unanimous, and abstaining counts as a no vote. If and only if I receive six yes votes will the builds be allowed.

Please get back to me as soon as possible on this issue. There will be a slight delay for spring 1902 as a result, and I would like to keep it as short as I can.

Cheers,

Warren
