Ok the deadline of March 6th 22:00 or 10 pm GMT.
How this works is.... sometime with in 24 hours after the deadline I will start to adjudicate, up until I start to adjudicate you may, if you are lucky, and the timing is just right, I might take last second changes. Once I start sorting things out I will send out an E- mail stating "Turn Closed" . Seeing how this is my first game as GM I will be excited about doing this so I anticipate that quickly after 22:00 GMT. This turn is 22:00 GMT , As we have players around the world it will be moving around the world 22:00 on the East coast of the USA and 22:00 CST USA and 22:00 Eastern Aussie Time. This is not the order just an example it will depend on who still is in the game etc.. the consistent part will be the 22:00 or 10 pm time.
Pre-lims , Orders and NMR's (No Moves Received)
NMR's are bad.. Very bad.. you will not like it when it happens in the game its a drag for all. And if it happens to you, all your units hold unsupported. A second NMR and we find replacement players and the game drags on.. If a player is on there way out it does mean allot to the rest of the remaining players that you play it out till the end. There is a style factor that I have always respected as a player when an unattainable situation stays and plays out the hand dealt. OK enough of that you get the idea.
When sending orders and any notes to me, the subject line needs dc243, country, year, season,
Pre-lims, Send me something shortly after the adjudication, This will cut down on NMR's for something is better than nothing. And it is fresh on your mind so you can see if your first instincts are what you end up with. Even if alliances change it is usually better to move than hold unsupported. You can change them up till the deadline. And you can change several times if you need, I will mark them received or with a "got em' " and the last set I get is what I will use.
Good luck to all, have a wonderful game, and most of all smile and have fun it is a game and you do this for the challenge and the entertainment. Some will be out before others and that is the way it goes... no big deal just sign up for another game and do it again!!!!!!
After all it is 'A Grim World Of Perilous Adventure" so enjoy.
