Heh... from the rampant posts on IRC, I think most players want to keep this thing going as fast as possible.

But, I don't want to pressure you, Pasha. I know you host this game by hand.

Hello:

Turn 16 is out.

Deadline is Thursday at 9pm Boston time.

Thanks.

I'd be happy with current fast hosting schedule. I think that some people would prefer to die faster to join new games :P

I agree with Zeldor.

Why is everyone always in such a rush these days? Doesn't anyone appreciate some good old fashioned thinking time anymore?

I tend to find that if you think more, you die quickly less

Hi:

The screen on okiN's laptop has died,

and he needs some time to fix the situation. He expects to be back in the saddle next week.

While that is a fairly long delay, I think it is important to accommodate players when such unexpected problems arise (opposed to a long planned vacation without any attempt to find a sub). Maybe okiN will be able to find an alternative computer to play on in the meantime.

That's fine with me Pasha.

Such problems happen unfortunately, and it would be very harsh to force someone to stale because of it. It's only a few days (plus it's the weekend, so go out and mingle people

) and the game is starting to hot up, so even one or two turns by a sub at this stage (who lets face it will never 100% know what's going on) might be terminally costly to that players nation. Which again IMO would be unfair to enforce on someone for a problem that is out of their control.

Hello:

Turn 17 is out.

Deadline is Friday, but I'd be certainly happy to host sooner to make up for lost time.

Thanks.

Pasha

Hello:

Turn 28 is out.

Deadline is Sunday, June 28. It was agreed at the beginning of the game that we would take a break while Calmon went on vacation this week. If he sends in a turn early, I will certainly let everyone know.

Thanks.

Pasha

Heh, looks like everyone stalled 11 turns!
