I completely agree and I'd say that if anyone has doubts about their commitment to the game now would be the time to drop out. That way this should be the last replacement for a while.

Hi All,
The way I see it, we have three
options:
1. Find a replacement and allow a
sufficient amount of time for him to meet and negotiate with
everyone.
2. Continue the game using some ad-hoc,
six-player rules.
3. Have someone propose a 6-way draw;
everyone signs up for new games and hopes for the
best.
I strongly favor option 1 and strongly disfavor
option 2. If anyone disagrees, now would be the time
to speak up. Feel free to e-mail me privately on this
matter.
Cheers,
Matthew

Arn't there other options here? I mean
this is getting ridiculous. Please don't allow a
replacement that hasn't played a game yet. Perhaps
that would help?
Here's what I propose:
Delete Austria from the game. It's home SC
arn't counted for 5 years. That way his neighbors
don't have free SCs to immediately go after. I
guess France and England are the only ones that wouldn't
benefit from this though.
Or, what if we all submitted orders for Austria?
Whichever move order got the most would be what that unit
does? We keep doing this until a replacement is found
so we can keep the game going.
If a replacement is found soon please don't set the
deadline for another week. I'd say 48-72 hours.

Hey guys,
Still no word from our Austrian player. I've got
no choice at this point but to seek a new player.
I've put the game back into recruiting mode.
Hopefully we'll find a replacement soon and can get
back to the game.

[quote:778c7d1174]Hey guys,
Deadline's here and I'm still waiting for
Austrian orders. I'm invoking Austria's
one-time 24h grace period. You are all free to submit
new orders during this time.
Cheers,
Matthew

[quote:778c7d1174]This is your friendly 24h reminder for Fall 1901.
[/quote:778c7d1174] I'm still missing orders from England, France,
Italy, and Austria.
[quote:778c7d1174]In future turns, please consider submitting
[/quote:778c7d1174]preliminary orders as soon as is convenient. You can
always change them once you've had some time, and you
reduce your risk of NMR to zero.
