pfloom welcome to the fun! I've added you to the playerlist!
Bondy, just to get this clear; you will be unavailable from the 1st of december till the 9th. Then you will have the 10th available and then from the 11th till the 14th of dec you're gone again?
So for planning we will consider you gone from the 1st till the 14th.
December will likely be slow anyway with all the holidays coming. Here in Holland we have 'Sinterklaas' (sort of thanksgiving with presents) on the 5th of dec and my birthday is on the 2nd of december, so I will likely not be able to return the turn in 24hrs either during those days. Same goes for X-Mas.
I don't see this as a problem. We could always pause play until everyone is back again during holidays.
