(Monkey Paradise) NEWBS ONLY (running)

Hi guys,

I have just received the turn file for Jomon and Groundworm has given me 48 hours to figure out my position. I'd appreciate if the current players, particulary my neighbors, could let me know what to expect from them (NAP, war, etc.). A summary of current events would also be a big help. Thanks.

I just woke up and found a message from four hours ago saying that MonkeyParadise was about to cycle in six hours.

I think we all, especially our new Jomon replacement, need more time than that!

Please extend the turn.

When I received the Jomon turn the message said that turns were due 22:10 GMT on Tuesday October 5.

It is a little awkward subbing into a game with binding diplomacy without being able to verify with the previous player what agreements are in place. My first inclination is to offer everyone a NAP-3.

That's strange. Llamaserver agrees with Hylobius, that the next turn was due on Tues, Oct. 5. Nonetheless, I've extended the turn 48 hours beyond that, so everyone can feel free to take their time. I'll extend the turn farther if need be.

Hylobius, from my end: I've had no real diplomacy with Jomon at all this game.

I have spoken with my neighbors and most of the rest of the players in the game. I will of course be honoring the NAPs that the previous player had in place. I have decided to promise not to attack anyone for 3 turns while I become more familiar with the position. This is not an offer of NAPs, just a three turn break where I will only be defending myself. Diplomatic chanels will of course be open during this time. I'll try and finish off my turn tonight.
