Betreff: Re: DC406: Fall 09 Retreats /// NMR Hi All,
It is an unusual request, but this is the first time I strictly enforced the deadline. In other games, "obvious" retreats are auto-entered -- I don't do that simply because I like to keep the players guessing, for what that's worth.
Anyway, I am open for a vote, but it must be a quick one!
Should Rolf's retreats be allowed? Yes or No. You have until 6 AM MST tomorrow morning (Sat 7/2 to make your vote.
ONLY A UNANIMOUS YES VOTE will succeed -- missing votes are counted as NO. (Rolf, you don't need to vote  )
Rolf, I know it's been a busy time, and I've been pretty lenient with the deadlines when you asked, so in the future, a quick 5 second email saying "really busy -- trying ---" will work as an extension request. I'm not going to hold the game for several days, of course, but a couple hours or a day is not out of the question. I totally understand busy times at work and fighting fires (heck, I live in Colorado. We were the "Burning State" a month ago).
Thanks,
Mike

Subject: Re: DC406: Fall 09 Retreats /// NMR Hi All,
It is an unusual request, but this is the first time I strictly enforced the deadline. In other games, "obvious" retreats are auto-entered -- I don't do that simply because I like to keep the players guessing, for what that's worth.
Anyway, I am open for a vote, but it must be a quick one!
Should Rolf's retreats be allowed? Yes or No. You have until 6 AM MST tomorrow morning (Sat 7/2 to make your vote.
ONLY A UNANIMOUS YES VOTE will succeed -- missing votes are counted as NO. (Rolf, you don't need to vote )
Rolf, I know it's been a busy time, and I've been pretty lenient with the deadlines when you asked, so in the future, a quick 5 second email saying "really busy -- trying ---" will work as an extension request. I'm not going to hold the game for several days, of course, but a couple hours or a day is not out of the question. I totally understand busy times at work and fighting fires (heck, I live in Colorado. We were the "Burning State" a month ago).
Thanks,
Mike

Hi All,
It is an unusual request, but this is the first time I strictly enforced the deadline. In other games, "obvious" retreats are auto-entered -- I don't do that simply because I like to keep the players guessing, for what that's worth.
Anyway, I am open for a vote, but it must be a quick one!
Should Rolf's retreats be allowed? Yes or No. You have until 6 AM MST tomorrow morning (Sat 7/2 to make your vote.
ONLY A UNANIMOUS YES VOTE will succeed -- missing votes are counted as NO. (Rolf, you don't need to vote )
Rolf, I know it's been a busy time, and I've been pretty lenient with the deadlines when you asked, so in the future, a quick 5 second email saying "really busy -- trying ---" will work as an extension request. I'm not going to hold the game for several days, of course, but a couple hours or a day is not out of the question. I totally understand busy times at work and fighting fires (heck, I live in Colorado. We were the "Burning State" a month ago).
Thanks,
Mike

Betreff: DC406: Fall 09 Retreats
Hi All,
Perfect games are rare in Baseball, and in Dip. It took until Fall 09, but we have our first NMR. No word from the Magicians, and so the units are disbanded. Perhaps he was too busy getting his "Olympics Betting Pool" (my local pub is running one) bets ready. Or, maybe this is just a carefully planned re-organization of troops: the Mags get 2 builds!!
Yes, Olympic Fever is descending upon the world, a time when we cheer on extra-ordinary athletes doing the very best they can, while we sit on sofas with Cheez-it crumbs growing on our stomachs. Not everyone can be an Olympian -- personally, I do my best to prove that I will NEVER be an Olympian, unless "insomnia", "trivia", or "TV Watching" become Olympic-qualifying events.
A special "Huzzah" to the Mike Sims, Ogres with an impressive *6* Builds!!!
And picking up his gift bag on the way out is Michael Penner, Hobbits who put up a valiant fight and in the end sacrificed himself for the betterment of nearly everyone else (at least according to his final orders). Thanks for Playing, Mike -- we have room on the couch for you!

Subject: Re: DC406: Fall 09 Retreats /// NMR
Hi All,
It is an unusual request, but this is the first time I strictly enforced the deadline. In other games, "obvious" retreats are auto-entered -- I don't do that simply because I like to keep the players guessing, for what that's worth.
Anyway, I am open for a vote, but it must be a quick one!
Should Rolf's retreats be allowed? Yes or No. You have until 6 AM MST tomorrow morning (Sat 7/2 to make your vote.
ONLY A UNANIMOUS YES VOTE will succeed -- missing votes are counted as NO. (Rolf, you don't need to vote )
Rolf, I know it's been a busy time, and I've been pretty lenient with the deadlines when you asked, so in the future, a quick 5 second email saying "really busy -- trying ---" will work as an extension request. I'm not going to hold the game for several days, of course, but a couple hours or a day is not out of the question. I totally understand busy times at work and fighting fires (heck, I live in Colorado. We were the "Burning State" a month ago).
Thanks,
Mike

Betreff: DC406: Fall 09 Retreats
Hi All,
Perfect games are rare in Baseball, and in Dip. It took until Fall 09, but we have our first NMR. No word from the Magicians, and so the units are disbanded. Perhaps he was too busy getting his "Olympics Betting Pool" (my local pub is running one) bets ready. Or, maybe this is just a carefully planned re-organization of troops: the Mags get 2 builds!!
Yes, Olympic Fever is descending upon the world, a time when we cheer on extra-ordinary athletes doing the very best they can, while we sit on sofas with Cheez-it crumbs growing on our stomachs. Not everyone can be an Olympian -- personally, I do my best to prove that I will NEVER be an Olympian, unless "insomnia", "trivia", or "TV Watching" become Olympic-qualifying events.
A special "Huzzah" to the Mike Sims, Ogres with an impressive *6* Builds!!!
And picking up his gift bag on the way out is Michael Penner, Hobbits who put up a valiant fight and in the end sacrificed himself for the betterment of nearly everyone else (at least according to his final orders). Thanks for Playing, Mike -- we have room on the couch for you!
Deadline for Adjustments, Winter 09 is Monday, July 30th. I will process early if all are in.

So in addition to the other retreats, the Magicians order: A Cyriss-Grendel

| DC406: Fall 09 Results! - laxrulz777 (Jul 26, 2012, 8:59 am) |
I'd like clarification on the hobbit move for undermountain as it appears he attempted to move it to "I sacrificed myself to hold back the W/P" which I believe is an invalid province... However, if I'm not mistaken, the first three letter valid territory in his orders are sacRIFiced indicating an attempted move to Rift Canyon... while I'm all for Hobbits floating in the ocean, I really would not like to see that unit there if at all possible
Great game Penner and thank you for sticking with it for so long.

Hi All,I love getting the commentary inclusions with your moves. But sometimes they are so confusing! Plots drawn up, but no one follows. Stabs occur, even though commentary seems to be so in sync. And then there are comments from those hanging on, which end up foretelling great futures.
And some Press!!!! ' treacherous dogs the lot of you, may siphilus plague your armies, and giants pluck the wings from your puny bodies'
Not sure if this was definitely aimed at the Faeries, but no other power has wings, do they? Then again, we don't have Giants in this game, so don't think the winged beings have much to worry about.
More press embedded in the Results (see Hobbits)
This round, there are almost as many failed moves as successes! But the lines that have been drawn seem to be darkening, and the final push to end game may be upon us.

Hi All,I love getting the commentary inclusions with your moves. But sometimes they are so confusing! Plots drawn up, but no one follows. Stabs occur, even though commentary seems to be so in sync. And then there are comments from those hanging on, which end up foretelling great futures.
And some Press!!!! ' treacherous dogs the lot of you, may siphilus plague your armies, and giants pluck the wings from your puny bodies'
Not sure if this was definitely aimed at the Faeries, but no other power has wings, do they? Then again, we don't have Giants in this game, so don't think the winged beings have much to worry about.
More press embedded in the Results (see Hobbits)
This round, there are almost as many failed moves as successes! But the lines that have been drawn seem to be darkening, and the final push to end game may be upon us.

I'd like clarification on the hobbit move for undermountain as it appears he attempted to move it to "I sacrificed myself to hold back the W/P" which I believe is an invalid province... However, if I'm not mistaken, the first three letter valid territory in his orders are sacRIFiced indicating an attempted move to Rift Canyon... while I'm all for Hobbits floating in the ocean, I really would not like to see that unit there if at all possible
Great game Penner and thank you for sticking with it for so long.

It has been a while since we processed some moves. Let's not make this drag out any more than it must.
Deadline in just over 24 hours, and I probably WILL PROCESS ON TIME!!!!
Don't take the chance of your units being suspended in disbelief that you forgot to tell them where to go.

Ah, delays and delays and delays..... We live in a time of instant gratification, yet we rarely complain when delays occur for non-essential things.Seeing how many complaints I received today for not releasing the moves, Diplomacy must be quite ESSENTIAL in our lives.
Apologies for the lateness -- we were waiting for one set of moves, and then the weekend got away from me. However, I had the time to spare because one of our esteemed colleagues is on vacation! I promised to grant the extension on the next set of orders which involved them.
Nearly every move succeeded and there was A LOT of movement on this board! A few retreats by two players, none involving the vacation request, so normal one day deadline.

Garry,
Indians are experts at stealth, which is why you never see them. Have you not wondered why we had so many Map failures this go-round, after so many successful runs of Haven? It was not due to GM or player error, the Indians captured the armies involved. I've been trying hard to stay ahead of them, but they are fairly successful at hiding from me as well.
Mike

I don't know about you guys but I find Mike's capitalization of the word "FAILed" suspicious... It might be a suggestion that a
Fairy
Archer
Indian
Leprechaun
alliance is secretly plotting... I for one will not tolerate someone just dropping Indians willy-nilly into the game at this point and I think it's a little politically insensitive to suggest it
all kidding aside, hope the surgery goes well Mike. I've considered LASIK for years (my prescription is horride, -11 in one eye and -11.75 in the other) so I'll be asking you in a month or so how you like it

Hi All,
Many apologies. I had one request for a deadline extension. The request was for one day, but I am having LASIK surgery this afternoon, so I probably won't be back on a computer until late tomorrow at best. Hopefully all goes well and I can get the results processed tomorrow afternoon, otherwise they will have to wait until Friday. If things go badly (ugh!), then I'll have my wife process the moves and I'll look for a replacement GM.
One thing I can tell you is that All Draw Proposals FAILed. A very early NO vote killed them off. So be prepared to keep playing!
Thanks for you patience and understanding.

Garry,
Indians are experts at stealth, which is why you never see them. Have you not wondered why we had so many Map failures this go-round, after so many successful runs of Haven? It was not due to GM or player error, the Indians captured the armies involved. I've been trying hard to stay ahead of them, but they are fairly successful at hiding from me as well.

Hi All,
Many apologies. I had one request for a deadline extension. The request was for one day, but I am having LASIK surgery this afternoon, so I probably won't be back on a computer until late tomorrow at best. Hopefully all goes well and I can get the results processed tomorrow afternoon, otherwise they will have to wait until Friday. If things go badly (ugh!), then I'll have my wife process the moves and I'll look for a replacement GM.
One thing I can tell you is that All Draw Proposals FAILed. A very early NO vote killed them off. So be prepared to keep playing!
Thanks for you patience and understanding.

Yes and what kind of surgery is done by Leprechauns, Archers, Samurai, Indians(?) and Knights anyways? That would be a crazy operating room.
BTW everyone I've talked to that's had it has liked it.

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Max,
Agreed, and I didn't intend to slight the assistance by the French, Spanish, Dutch. In fact, my initial listing for the category "No Adjustments Needed" was "France", but I realized that wasn't historically accurate since they were not sitting on the sidelines.

Subject: DC406: Fall 08 Retreats!
Hi all,
Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.
Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.
Retreats, Fall 08:
-------------------------
Gnomes: A Newa River - Elephant Graveyard
Ogres: A Cyriss - Moominvalley
Look at this -- for once, everyone still in the game has either a build or a disband; no one is sitting on the sidelines just watching.
Adjustment Deadline is Tuesday, July 3rd. Let's get them in before the holiday, otherwise there'll be *explosions*.
Americans:
---------------
Archers: Supp 6 Unit 5 Build 1
Dwarves: Supp 13 Unit 12 Build 1
Faeries: Supp 11 Unit 10 Build 1
Knights: Supp 13 Unit 12 Build 1
Leprechauns: Supp 8 Unit 6 Build 2
Ogres: Supp 21 Unit 15 Build 6
Pirates: Supp 10 Unit 9 Build 1
Undead: Supp 4 Unit 2 Build 2
British:
---------
Gnomes: Supp 2 Unit 3 Remove 1
Hobbits: Supp 3 Unit 6 Remove 3
Magicians: Supp 5 Unit 7 Remove 2
Nomads: Supp 1 Unit 3 Remove 2
Trolls: Supp 5 Unit 7 Remove 2
Mexico:
---------
Atlantis:
----------
Barbarians: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Centaurs: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Elves: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Rogues: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Samurai: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Wizards: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Thanks,
Mike---------

I'm still getting some press, and if anyone has any proposals I'm willing to hear them. I also do my best to reply to evryone, but sometimes you have to wonder if people are just fishing.

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Jeff, from one poli-wonk to another: How does Roberts justify not allowing Congress to regulate not doing something but allowing them to tax not owning something?

John Roberts is the chief justice of the supreme court (USA) who just ordered a very contentious ruling that really thread the needle of what is considered constitutional. Thereby angering both Republicans (by upholding the health care law in question) and Democrats (by calling it a tax). If you're a political wonk (like me it's been real fun here for the past week.

And btw - for the record with the original question, this is the most press I've had for this game in weeks.
