Last I heard the next hosting was sunday, when I got an e-mail that it was hosting this morning. I gave warning I would be late getting the turn, but by the time I finally got home and was able to do my turn, it had already hosted. Needless to say I really hate staling, particularity in a war, I would really appreciate if a sub could step in at this point.
If you had done your turn Thursday evening (like 16 other players had done!), you would not have staled. Heck, even Puffyn on vacation did his turn on Thursday.

Had you done your turn within 48 hours of receiving the turn file, you would not have staled.

Had you replied to my noon email today when I had told you I was hosting at 5 PM MST today, you would not have staled.

I even gave you until 8 PM today, an extra 3 hours beyond what I told you in my email.

It is tough enough hosting a 17 player game without the same player being chronically late time and time again. It is certainly not fair to the other players to be frequently waiting on one player.

Considering the fact that you have now twice violated a directive of the Council, I think you are not really much into this game. I have to agree that a sub would be much better at this point for all concerned.

It should not be hard to find a sub since you are doing pretty well in the game. Perhaps Boron would be interested in trying the non-death Ermor theme for once.
