Dont forget folks, results this evening, US time. If you have already forgotten, then pls re-read the below message... indicating that you should be sending orders to ME. I do not have a full complement of orders yet, and it's about 9 hours till our highly anticipated spring 05 turn - it should be a doosey!
Enjoy,
-mike

Hi all,
It looks like we’re just waiting for a Russian build. As soon as I get that, I’ll send out some results!

Note you’re now sending orders to ME!

Did Trout mention? If you send orders to Christine, and not to me, you will miss out! (unless you want to miss out, in which case you’ll be tremendously successful)

But if you don’t want to be tremendously successful in missing out on your orders, then be sure you send the next few turns to ME, and not Christine. You can copy her if you like, tho it won’t impact anything. You can copy my son too if you like, but again it won’t help. He’s 1, and doesn’t check email. He’s likely to not know who you are anyways. And if you copy your local state Senator, perhaps that will help, but most likely not. What CAN help, is that I accept bribes, and generally if they come in the form of a nice bottle of Gin or Vodka, that could help accordingly.

I guess that’s about it for now!

So to recap: Send orders to ME. Not Christine (unless you want to) and send Trout some lumps of coal. Why? Cuz it’s cold in Canada, and maybe he can put them under his covers.

Russian build is due by Friday 6pm Central US time, which equates to midnight GMT.
Enjoy,
-mike

Hi everyone,



In light of Christine's loss, Mike will be stepping in temporarily as GM of DC-231. Please send all orders to him at mike(at)southwall.com ([email]mike(at)southwall.com[/email]) (Also, ensure that the orders inbox at orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com ([email]orders(at)diplomaticcorp.com[/email]) is also copied.)



Please note that due to time zone differentials, the deadline times will change. We'll tentatively set the Winter 04 deadline for tomorrow night at 11:59 PM GMT - though Mike may modify that if necessary.



Thanks folks,



Trout
