Okay group.  We've had some shuffling of players, but I think we have seven committed.
 
I use the DC house rules, if you haven't read them you should!  Try this link:  http://www.diplomaticcorp.com/info.php?type=houserules
 
One point that new players to DC might not be used to:   there are no default builds or retreats.  If you don't send a retreat order your retreats go Off The Board (OTB), and if you don't send build orders, you don't build.
 
I will generally give about a week between major turns (spring/fall), and I don't usually make deadlines on weekends.  This isn't written in stone or anything, the players can influence me to move faster or slower, within reason.
 
PLEASE pay attention to your subject lines in any email that you want me to actually see.  Like your orders!!  The subject line should include:
 
The game number, DC 463.
Your country
The season and year, and version of your orders if there is more than one.
 
Example:  DC 463, Austria, Spring 1901 (2)
 
The (2) indicates that this is the second iteration of Austria's spring 1901 orders.
 
If you have ANY questions or uncertainties, don't hesitate to send me a note.
 
At the bottom of this mail I've pasted the player details as DC sends them to me. Hopefully everyone is happy with their country, they were determined randomly after a close vote.
 
Our first deadline:
 
Spring 1901 will be due on Monday, September 16th, 18:00 Mountain time.  I think I am GMT -7 right now.
 
GOOD LUCK, looking forward to it,
 
Warren
