Ermor has attacked a Safe Province of Arcoscephale. I request it be vacated immediately for reclamation by its rightful owner.

Absolutely. Request granted. Glad to do business with a reasonable Wyrm.

Pasha, what got you???

Lord Pasha and the Good Wyrm from R'lyeh attacked the same province. Lord Pasha did not expect that and paid the price. Sad (and dead) be Lord Pasha.

Proposition 22, Quorum and Proposition Rules Clarifications is open for vote.

Morkilus · #**616** January 6th, 2006, 08:14 PM

Proposition 22 has passed, so all proposing Wyrms, please re-read section 4 of the Charter. Of course, all involved in the Propositions 18-21 snafu knew this was coming...

Turn 31 has been mailed. Ermor has staled. No pretenders in the HoF died.

Next deadline is Sunday evening at 8 PM MST.

Last I heard the next hosting was sunday, when I got an e-mail that it was hosting this morning. I gave warning I would be late getting the turn, but by the time I finally got home and was able to do my turn, it had already hosted. Needless to say I really hate staling, particularity in a war, I would really appreciate if a sub could step in at this point.

If you had done your turn Thursday evening (like 16 other players had done!), you would not have staled. Heck, even Puffyn on vacation did his turn on Thursday.

Had you done your turn within 48 hours of receiving the turn file, you would not have staled.

Had you replied to my noon email today when I had told you I was hosting at 5 PM MST today, you would not have staled.

I even gave you until 8 PM today, an extra 3 hours beyond what I told you in my email.

It is tough enough hosting a 17 player game without the same player being chronically late time and time again. It is certainly not fair to the other players to be frequently waiting on one player.

Considering the fact that you have now twice violated a directive of the Council, I think you are not really much into this game. I have to agree that a sub would be much better at this point for all concerned.

It should not be hard to find a sub since you are doing pretty well in the game. Perhaps Boron would be interested in trying the non-death Ermor theme for once.

I told you before, I don't do my turns until the last minute because I always have to do last minute changes and I try not to annoy the host. I never had a chance to read or reply to your e-mail after my warning. Honestly I did everything possible to give warning and get the turn in as fast as I could when suddenly the host schedule moved for the second time. And the game has not been to my knowledge 'waiting on me frequently'.

As for violating the directives, I benefited not at all from them (nor had I intended to break them in the first place). Each of the cases was resolved diplomatically or through the council, which seems exactly what the game is supposed to be all about.

Sorry if I seem a bit harsh, but staling staling was pretty much the icing on 'one of those days'...
