Just a few hours to go until hosting, and the top two are still without turns submitted. For Zeldor this is not unusual, but Frozen Lama mostly has his turn done by now, so it's strange not to see his turn sent in this close to the deadline.

@ Zeldor / Frozen - I should be around this evening until the current hosting deadline hits, so just give me a shout if you need a delay. (and even if I'm away from my computer for the next hour or so, I'll make certain to check back for delay requests before and around the time of the deadline.)

I'll also probably throw in an automatic delay if the deadline gets too close and any turns are still missing. You all know how much I hate seeing stales at any time during a game, but even more pointless at this stage and with so few players left.

I'm totally in the next game in the series if there's room. Preferably as a non-water nation since i've *played* most of those already. (And don't be too fast, some people need to hurry up and finish killing me in some other games)

Oh Frozen where art thou. Zeldor's the king of late turn submission not you.

@ All

Fair chance I'll be delaying this game in the next few minutes. Probably add 24 hours, as I'm expecting to be out of the office tomorrow for most of the day. So won't be able to do my usual preference here of delaying the game until the morning and re-checking the status then.

Although only Frozen's turn missing, so it will obviously autohost when he submits it.

Edit1: In fact better delay it now due to the screwy llamaserver.
Edit2: Ok, game delayed by 24 hours for Frozen Lama. Guess his racing addiction consumed all his free time this turn

oh.......oops. totally forgot it was due today. sorry guys. thanks for the save Calahan. i will get it in tonight i promise.

No worries Frozen. I'll mostly be on the case with heading off any stales. Even more so now with this being the only game I'm admining. Less deadlines to watch

@ All

I had to throw on a hasty 12 hour delay for myself yesterday, and will probably need a few extra hours again for today. Work has been the total opposite of kind the past few days. I've even had to come in on a Saturday

So I've added another few hours for myself just in case the current deadline is too tight (50/50 that I'll need it). But I should be able to get something sent in once I finally get home.

I will be traveling without internet acess from Oct 19th-24th. i know the game has been delay way to much lately, but i'd like to ask to delay the turn for me since most likely i would only need a sub for 1 turn.

thanks!

Oh, you are not going to give up before that?

Calahan · #9 October 15th, 2009, 06:15 PM

Going to need a few extra hours on this one. Ran out of time tonight to get my turn done, and a 17:00 deadline tomorrow isn't too friendly due to the current pain in my life that is called work.

So added 6 hours for myself. Apologies all. Especially Frozen, as I'm sure he's itching to see the benefit of his sparkly new toy asap

Calahan · #10 October 16th, 2009, 06:09 PM

An hour to go until hosting, and two turns currently missing. Zeldor has asked me to keep an eye on the deadline as he might not make it, and delay if his turn is missing. Plus no turn yet from Meglobob, which is strange.

So chances are I'll be delaying the game by 12 hours at some point within the next hour (unless the missing turns appear of course, in which case the game will autohost)

Edit: Game delayed 12 hours. Will check again in the morning to see how those missing turns are looking. See little point in letting anyone stale between now and the end.
