It seems people forget that SEIV was played before there was PBW. As a host I have even sent a few nag Messages out to the Last players to submit turns (I didn't want my players to feel to at ease being off line from PBW).

17 of 18 players had uploaded their turn files in my admin game.
So should I run the turn at home forfeiting all the uploaded turns I can't download.
Should I request all to download to me? No 18 players is too much to keep track of, individually reminding them to upload to me instead, explaining etc.
It's a newbie game and belive me, I've had a lot of other problems related to us being newbies without trying to explain to all how to send files to me etc(I know it sounds simple but beleive me it will be complicated, If I tried to say this to all I'd drown in e-mails (not all are very good in english either!)).
We will wait!!

Can't wait to get back to kicking some Ruathian tail in GC1...

Hmm, I hope you're meaning NG1! I admit I've had my butt kicked so badly there that I can hardly sit becourse of the bruises!!

But in (N)GC2 you and I are friends! (Right?

), besides, my people got tails and their butts are heavily protected!

What is this (N)GC2? Is it the game where you're admin and where are 18 players?

We can only hope eh?

I imagine he is still at work though. But who knows since I do not know his schedule.
I'm just guessing because of how he wored his post a few Posts ago. He said something along the lines of: "There was no box waiting for me when I got home from work."
So that makes me think that he has a life outside of being a PBW admin.

Geoschmo has a life? and i thought anyone with their name in the seiv gold booklet wouldn't! shame on geoshmo, flaunting his riches in front of us, just because HE has a life and we don't!!!
