The old bees die, the young possess their hive.
But of course, the old bees sometimes tell the young to buzz off.... *really bad joke grin*
France and the Holy Roman Empire trade blows in the west while Sweden sticks a spoke into Russia's wheel in the East. Meanwhile, the beleagured Poles continue to find themselves under siege.
Four retreats are required after the Spring moves - one each from the French, the Spanish, the Poles and the Russians. Deadline for Summer 1602 will be set for Thursday, May 1st (11:59 PM GMT).
Just let me know if you spot any goofs on my part. Cheers!

The French fall back to Bay Of Biscay, the Spanish to the English Channel and the Russians to Ukrainia. Unfortunately, no retreat order arrives from the Polish and therefore the last Pole unit is respectfully taken off the board...

| DC172 - A Tsars Resignation - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
Hi everyone,
I apologize but owing to a disagreement with the GM concerning what is permissible and what is not permissible during a game of diplomacy, our current Russian Tsar Simeon has resigned his commission. While unfortunately it shows up on the website as an abandonment, I'd like to stress that Simeon went out of his way to turn in Fall orders and began to seek out a replacement for his position. If he HAD to go, he did what he could to keep the game moving.
That being said, seeing the writing on the walls I have enlisted a savage Swedish-meatball-eating recruit to the Russian cause already. Please welcome Steve Caponigri the Terrible to the game. Steve has enthusiastically volunteered to come to the party and kick some Swedish behind... =P
Steve's email is <scaponig(at)yahoo.com ([email]scaponig(at)yahoo.com[/email])>. As he already has orders in, the deadline will remain tomorrow (Wednesday, May 7th). However, stay tuned please as I have offered to provide an extension if he so requests.
Cheers everyone.

With apologies, I find myself still one set of orders short of the complete collection. I've given Luke a little extra time, but have now notified him that he has until 11:59 PM GMT this evening (Sunday) to get me orders. Failing that, I will look for a replacement for the Turkish position.

... A man I am, cross'd with adversity. ...
And crossed with adversity, our Poland finds itself crushed like so much Orange Juice pulp... The Swedish stab of Russia hits a snag as the new Tsar makes up the lost centers at Turkey's expense. And in the west, once again the French and the Spanish trade centers as Flanders and Gascony both return to their previous owners.
I'd like to send a big shout-out to Gregory who, facing so much adversity, never faltered and played it right out to the end. Thanks man - and we'll look forward to seeing you turn the tables in the next one. =)
Several retreats are required after the Fall 02 moves - one each from France, Spain and the Ottomans. Deadline for the Early Winter 1602 retreats will be set for Tuesday, May 13th (11:59 PM GMT).

The world was very guilty of such a ballad some three ages since; but I think now 't is not to be found. ...
A Spanish disband, a French bottle of Champagne and a slight Ottoman miscue are the result of the Early Winter 1602 retreats. The Turks ordered a retreat to the Eastern Mediterranean but were unable to do so as this was the origin of the dislodging Spanish fleet. As a result, the Ottoman Egyptian fleet is retreated OTB.
Which leads us to Winter 1602 where all surviving powers have an adjustment... Deadline for Winter will be set for Friday, May 16th (11:59 PM GMT).
Cheers!

Heya gang,
Two NMRs this round unfortunately, as England and the Ottomans fail to submit disbands. To keep the game moving, I auto-disbanded following these two principles:
- units furthest away from home centers first
- armies before fleets
- alphabetical after that
The results were disbands in Helgoland Bight and Bulgaria. Other adjustments are listed below. With that, we move forward into Spring 1603, with orders due Friday, May 23rd (11:59 PM GMT).

| DC172 - GM Error and Another Pending Replacement - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
Hi folks,
My apologies but it appears that I missed a French order with the Spring 1603 adjudication. France ordered Navarre -> Mid-Atlantic. Result remains a dislodgement in Navarre, but the Spanish fleet from Granada will bounce in the Mid-At as well.
With regret though, I have to announce that Harry has resigned from the game necessitating another replacement. I will send out the updated map and .dpy file tomorrow, as well as immediately begin seeking a new French player. Hopefully we will not be delayed too long.
Cheers!

I'm not too sure about the "regret" on our gms part, but since I guess I'm resigning, it's best of luck to all of you.

Care keeps his watch in every old man's eye,
And where care lodges, sleep will never lie.
There's no star-crossed lovers in this game... Retreats are to Cornwall, Bay of Biscay, Aegean Sea and Greater Poland. I have a line on a new Frenchman and will announce the player as soon as they confirm with me.
We have some interesting scheduling coming up due to a player trip. Long story short, please bear with me - some of our turns might be either longer or shorter than usual - all things depending. Deadline for Fall 1603, however, will be set for Friday June 6th (11:59 PM GMT).
Cheers!
