Packrat,
What time zone are YOU in? 2100 is a somewhat ambiguous number.

Okay folks - our game has been moved from recruiting to active
and given number 218 so that is the number to use in the subject
line for orders and stuff.

I have 6 sets of information on hand so I am missing one set.
I will make assignments Thursday night and have the first orders
due a week from Monday - 11/10/08 at 2100.

Addendum to the information I sent out the other day:

I am going to run this with one week or so deadlines.
There will NOT be anything due on the weekends.
If a deadline falls on a Friday, retreats/adjustments will be due Monday.
Adjustments will be due WITH the retreats. If this is a problem let me know
but I see no reason it should be.
I will NMR per the prior published information.
Retreats/adjustments will be due 24 hours after the results are posted so please be ready.
The default retreat will be OTB.
THERE WILL BE NO GRACE PERIOD ON RETREATS OR ADJUSTMENTS.
Adjudications or a status will generally take place within 2-4 hours of the deadline.
If you do not hear from me within 24 hours feel free to email and remind me.

Subject: Diplomatic Corp game re005

Greetings Gentlemen -
I have 7 and have asked for the game to be moved from recruiting to Active.
Once that happens the number we will be given MUST be in the subject line
on ALL game related correspondence that goes between us. Before we get
going I need a few things and have some things you need to know.

First, what I need to know:

1. Country preferences, in order of preference
2. Your location and time zone - this helps when I set deadlines
3. Timezone (I'm too lazy to look up the info from 2)
4. Any alternate emails or means of communication in case your primary email isn't working.
This may also be used if no orders are received.
5. Whether you have weekend access to your email - also for setting deadline.

Second, what you need to know:

1. There will usually be 24 hour notice prior to the deadline
2. *IF* that does not happen and orders are missing I will extend 24 hours and contact the player.
3. If no orders are received within 24 hours of the deadline I *WILL* NMR you.
4. IF there is a second NMR the game will be placed on hold and you WILL be replaced.
5. Generally speaking I try to be very flexible so as to keep the game moving. If you need
an extension, ask.
6. NO extensions will be granted at or after the deadline.
7. The subject line on ALL orders MUST contain the following:
7a) Game number, Country, season, and year. I don't care about the order
8. BE SURE you change the subject line when replying to results with the next
seasons orders.

The game ends under one of three conditions (slightly different than the DC house rules)

1. One player attains 18 or more centers.
2. ALL players with centers vote one player a solo.
3. DIAS - ALL players with centers (not necessarily units) share in a draw.

If you have ANY questions or concerns please do not hesitate to ask me.

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
