wooooooo!

Now I know argentina and brazil will leave me one SC as a christmas present - after all they are such
old friends who have played many diplomacy games together, they can easy organise that.

Colombia wins the turn off – 2 centers, but no units he has to bother ordering this round!
A surprise NMR from India – but even so takes no losses anywhere.

Only a handful of retreats, from 5 players – due Wed 12/17, 10am Pacific!

THEN: Next Wednesday is the 24th. I'm guessing many of y'all don't want a turn on Christmas Eve, so if I get all 5 retreats by tomorrow, I'll run it early and post the next turn due the 23rd. If I don't get the retreats all by tomorrow, then the next turn won't be due till next Friday, the day after Christmas.

If anyone has Christmas delays to request, the time to get them in to me is BEFORE we start the next turn! Especially if the above paragraph does not work with your holiday plans.

Enjoy,
-mike
