Hi guys,
      
      first order of the day: The BGI three-way draw proposal failed.
      
      Regarding the three remaining minor powers, one might take note of
      these all being equidistant to the surrounding major powers' home
      bases. I dare say that minor powers who are either relatively
      isolated or are located on the faultlines of various spheres of
      influence have the best chance to survive.
      
      As the Pr?sident's ship sails into the sunset en route to his
      Tahitian exile, I do hope he'll be able to write his memoirs on
      those tropical beaches. Matt, perhaps you might wish to submit
      your EOG while things are still fresh in your mind? Again, thanks
      for serving as interim Pr?sident. We all appreciated you jumping
      in at short notice. Should you want to participate in a future
      game of mine, your power preferences will be considered first as a
      small thanks.
      
     Preliminary orders are due Monday, 6 PM CET. Let's
      see what the fourth year in this? struggle for European hegemony
      shall hold for us. If the press is to believed, we're in for a
      second Gallipoli!
      
      Happy dipping, 
      
      Charles
