DC289: 24h Warning - DucatiRider   (Jan 20, 2010, 9:41 am)
"The deadline for Spring 1901 will be two weeks from today on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, at 05:00GMT.  I will thereafter attempt to keep intervals between major seasons at just one week."

I"m assuming that wasn't 5am but 5pm.  So to me it looks like they haven't missed the deadline yet.

Hi Folks,

Deadline has passed and I'm still missing orders from Austria and Turkey.  I'm giving another 24 hours (without invoking their one-time 24hour grace period, because I'm a nice guy).  If I'm still missing orders, then I'll have to seek a new player.

Sorry for the delay.

I had indeed intended 05:00GMT to mean 5am GMT. The deadline then translates to late evening on Tuesday for our North American players.


I apologize for the confusion.

DC289: 24h Warning (dc289) Rocketship Jan 22, 01:40 am
Well...

We have orders from almost all players, but no word from Turkey.

I don't think I can really be anymore lenient, so I think we need to go ahead and look for a replacement. Once we find one, I think I'll allow another week for negotiations (and I'll still accept orders from all of you) before the Spring 1901 deadline.

I apologize for the delay.

Hi Everyone,

Please welcome our new Turkish player, Chochem (pontusstrimling-at-yahoo.com).

I'll set the Spring 1901 deadline for Saturday, January 30, 2010 at 05:00GMT. Note that that translates to late Friday evening in North America.

Cheers,

Matthew

DC289: Game Start - Rocketship   (Jan 11, 2010, 12:50 am)
Hi Everyone,

There was some confusion regarding e-mail addresses, so here they are. I apologize for not doing this earlier, but I was fairly busy this weekend.


DucatiRiderGermany markj18-at-gmail.com ([email]markj18-at-gmail.com[/email])ecommander0Italy ecommander0-at-hotmail.com ([email]ecommander0-at-hotmail.com[/email])JeffreyKEngland diplomacy-at-jeffreyk.com ([email]diplomacy-at-jeffreyk.com[/email])jmc66France jmc66-at-mac.com ([email]jmc66-at-mac.com[/email])MarloweAustria necaalor-at-gmail.com ([email]necaalor-at-gmail.com[/email])tanvirabsTurkey tanvirabs-at-yahoo.com ([email]tanvirabs-at-yahoo.com[/email])trooperRussia john.c1arke-at-btinternet.com ([email]john.c1arke-at-btinternet.com[/email])

If anyone feels like they need the deadline extended due to this confusion, please let me know.


Cheers,

Hi Everyone,

We have seven confirmed players, so it's time to begin. We are now game DC289.


The country list is thus:
DucatiRider Germany ecommander0 Italy JeffreyK England jmc66 France Marlowe Austria tanvirabs Turkey trooper Russia

The deadline for Spring 1901 will be two weeks from today on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, at 05:00GMT. I will thereafter attempt to keep intervals between major seasons at just one week.


We'll be using the DC default house rules, with just a couple of modifications:
1. I'll send a confirmation whenever I receiver your orders. I'll try to check that they're valid, but I make no promises. Please remember that you're welcome to send multiple sets of orders in a given season (labeled numerically so that I know which to use), so it never hurts to send preliminary orders early.
2. Each of you will be allowed one 24-hour grace period for a missed deadline. Any further missed deadlines will be treated as NMRs.
3. I reserve the right to immediately replace any player registering an NMR in the year 1901.
4. I will attempt to find replacements for any abandoned countries.
5. I'll attach a game map and realpolitik file with each adjudication.
5. Because this is the first online game for many of you, I reserve the right to be just a little soft when enforcing rules 2 & 3.


Please let me know if you have any questions.


Happy stabbing!


Matthew
