I would prefer to keep the timer on, but I won't complain either way.

Speaking of which, I probably need to take my turn.

keep the timer on unless someone askes for a temporary pause and have a reason why they can't do a turn.

I consistently have a devil of a time get my turn file downloaded from this server - is it just me or do the other players have the same problem? I have yet to get a full download of the current turn (#8, I think), using 2 different computers on 2 totally separate net connections. If the early (100kb) files are this much trouble, what will it be like when the files are 500-1000kb?

I ask because I'm going to need a replacement in this game. I've had a ton of long-term workload dumped on me, and I need to cut way back on extraneous activities for a while. But I want to be able to tell potential fill-ins what they might be getting themselves into.

I also had this problem, but later on it went well (mayb it was a temporary thing)

I'm having no problem at all. (and my computer is piss-poor, and needs serious replacing)

I'm willing to replace you as R'lyeh, if you haven't found someone yet.

Thanks, Catquiet - PM sent.

Well, as I promised two weeks ago, my sister is getting married on friday, so I'll be out of town - and away from the computer - from tomorrow afternoon till saturday evening.

Damn, I was quite confident of being able to play one last turn today before leaving, but it seems that won't happen.

Damn you Ermor, Damn you! There's only one possible answer to your atrocious delaying tactics and that's WAR. Immediate, brutal, war!

Erm.... actually... you're quite big. Heheh... this was a joke obviously, a big joke. Hahahahaah, so funny... I'm not mad at you, not at all. Nonono. Let's be friends and delay together shall we? Yes, be friends....

Anyways, I'm off. Enjoy the last working days before the weekend, I know I will. (Enjoy, that is, not work

)
