PREV Autumn 1909 Adjudication: NEXT

Good Morning, Players.

Then there were four....

It is with heavy heart -- okay, that's a lie, I love this! -- that I must announce the elimination of another stalwart stabber. Please bid farewell to our wandering Tsar who was ejected from his final hidey-hole this Fall. He has already supplied me with a nice EOG statement that I am reserving for game end. I'm not sure how it would do any damage to publish it now, but I just don't trust you guys. ;-)

Being just a little bit of a math guy, I find it interesting that to this point we have had one country eliminated every third year exactly. Does prior performance promise future results? C'mon, you know better than that.

Can France and/or Italy slow down the Anglo-Turkish party? Can either England or Turkey get all the way over the line for the solo, or can two heavyweights swinging in the dark somehow construct a stalemate line? I have a feeling that we'll have the answers to these questions pretty soon.

Complete SC Counts:

COUNTRY SC
Austria 0 ... eliminated 1903
England 14
France 3
Germany 0 ... eliminated 1906
Italy 2
Russia 0 ... eliminated 1909
Turkey 15

==================================================

NEXT DEADLINE:

Winter 1909/Spring 1910 are due on Thursday, July 8 at the usual time of 8 pm Eastern US time. As I mentioned already, my plans are a bit uncertain over the next few days so I may need to adjust the timing.

Cheers,
Chris
