But if we are holding you up, by all means do what you have to do. I'll just let the AI play for anyone that wants to quit and it won't hold us up at all.
Not necessarily holding me up. It's just that it's going to be a slow tedius game in the beginning. Originally, it was posted at 24-hour TA time, I think. But changed to 36 'cause some people requested a longer time. And, we can't seem to meet that.

I guess it's just the anal-retentive part of me that gets irritated by this sort of thing. People who make a committment and don't keep it (for a reason I don't know about, admittedly). I find I enjoy games much more where the players always get the turn done on time.

Now, just so people don't think I'm some sort of butthole, Master Belisarius posted that he needed to be gone for week and our game was put on hold. I have no problem with that sort of thing at all.

Anyway, I don't want to pull. I'll wait till someone volunteers to take the position over. I'd hate for the AI to scrap the SY that is building in order to make something else .
