Tesco, you only skip mines if you are in the sector with the planets when you declare war. If not, then you skip no mines.

Also, the message is delivered concurrent to the attack, not after it. The attack and the message recieval happen on the same turn.

What is your point? It doesn't look like anyone but you has a problem with that.

I can say, as the originator of the thread, that I hope this doesn't degrade to another Fyron argument. It is not the reason I posted it.

I agree with your initial post Gandalph. I too have had games spoiled that I have invested a whole lotta time. The onus is on both sides.
Same goes for folk who quit games. If you;re not in it for the long haul, then show respect for the other guy's time and don't bother joining in the first place.
