Hello All!
I'm all packed up and leaving the Florida Coast. Expect my turns to stale for a couple turns....but If I don't return. I'm Dead.

Why you don't find someone that takes your turns in those days instead of staling?

Well, I'm glad you took the time post, that's better than simply disappearing. However, I wish you had taken the time to say how long you were expecting to be gone, or better still ask for a sub, as Cohen points out. If you're still around you can send me a PM with your password for CasualCarnage, then maybe I can arrange for a sub.

Anyhow, I'm gonna guess that you'll be out for 4-5 days, and I'll put it up for a vote on CC to see if people are willing to hold the game for that long.

Just got power? Woo hoo! As a former mayor of Saint Petersburg said, "People here love their air conditioning more than their wives".

Great news - glad to have you back!

The bad news is that Casual Carnage is on the ropes, and we're not sure if that game is salvageable or not (but the word is maybe not). We're waiting on Sheap to let us know if that's going to be running again, or not.

hey welcome back yellow cactus

Afaik all games in which we are both in were paused for you so no stale turns

Welcome back Yellow Cactus! More specifically, the status of the two games both of us are in is as follow:

Yarnspinners had been stopped and will need you to upload your turn again as soon as the game gets restarted.

The PBEM game Not Stupid Just Slow is on hold until you can send your turn. It will go back to its usual pace as soon as you send your turn.

So...yesterday morning I'm working a Dominions turn and talking to my mother on the phone when the monitor goes *Zap*. Because of a loss of video I turned the computer off and borrowed another monitor that afternoon. But now the Computer won't come on, nor the Monitor. But everything else on that surge-protector is fine. Also, my cordless phone is dead. Am I S#$*@#D ???
