Hi guys,
sigh. I'm afraid Ciaran failed to submit any orders. As such, we have our first NMR. First one for 1648 in three games as well... :(
I had hoped Ciaran would have answered my emails by now (still hoped a technical problem on my side was the issue here). That not being the case, I'll proceed as follows: If I do not hear from him by Thursday 3 PM GMT, I shall seek a replacement.
Considering these special circumstances, I'm delaying the winter deadline by 24 hours to Friday 3 PM GMT. Subject to change depending on the French player situation.
Ah well. This turn was also the one to see the Sultan eliminated. His last orders are not the result of an NMR, I might point out. Max, I'd be grateful if you were to submit an EOG report to me in the coming days.
Charles
