Oh bum... not best pleased about this myself, but never mind. Having managed to get by in the opening move, despite being without guaranteed internet access, 3000 miles away from home, in deepest Vermont and having had my request for a delay at that time unacknowledged, I feel a little hard done by.

But what the heck, it's Christmas. The glorious Russian forces will take a break so that they can enter Berlin and Ankara (simultaneously), with clean uniforms and clear heads. Up the Russians.

Subject: DC 217, Delay proposed


Hey all,

I have had a request to delay the game before the fall orders tonight, due to some recent difficulty with e-mail contact, and general difficulty in communications around this festive time of year.

I have agreed to this delay, which in the long run will set the game back only a couple of days. The new deadline for fall will be the 5th of January, instead of having winter due on that date.

Sorry to those of you that are anxiously waiting for the next turn. Hope this is okay with everyone. Feel free to let me know your thoughts.

Warren

.ExternalClass .EC_hmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.EC_hmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;} Hey everyone,

Just a quick note to touch base. I have been travelling a lot lately and haven't been online much. Because of this I haven't given confirmations to many orders this week. I'll try to get to them all today...... sometime.

So the deadline is tonight, about 8 hours from now. I hope to be fairly prompt with it, so get your orders in BEFORE then if you can. Once I open my mail at, or after, the deadline, the inbox is CLOSED.

After this deadline I propose a break until the new year. Again I'm going to be travelling a lot, so contact will be spotty. Let me know your thoughts on this. I'm thinking around Monday the 5th for the next deadline after tonight.

Get 'em in!

Warren

.ExternalClass .EC_hmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.EC_hmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;} After the spring turn we had one retreat due from Turkey. There was only one option, so I have assumed that it would be taken. Rachael, please let me know if you would rather retreat it OTB.

One more turn to go, and then we will take a bit of time off for the holiday season. I'm going to suggest we start up again on the 5th, probably with winter 1903 due on that day. I'm open to feedback of course.

For now, Fall 1903 is due on Monday, December 22, 22:00 MST.

Here is the spring and summer adjudication:
