Water Total War (Running)

Hey guys, me and Trumanator will be on vacation from the 16th to the 25th of this month. sorry to have this happen so soon into our game, but we didn't get all that much advance warning. I have a friend who *could play for me, but he is not a forum member. Trumanator is not so lucky.

I'd like some feedback from the other players as to if they are willing to put the game on hold for the 9 days we are gone. if everyone is against it, Trumanator can try to find a sub, and my friend will play MA r'yleh, but someone else will need to take over the admin of this game at least temporarily.

Its really too bad your vacation isn't like 2 weeks later or I'd second the motion...

I'm getting married at the end of July, with a honeymoon to follow in early august. I have a friend I could pass my turns off to during the honeymoon, and I figure that's probably what I end up doing - wasn't going to ask the game to be delayed for that. Assuming I can't find some way to bring the game with me to Wales... (no, my fiancee would kill me). Its 10 days - i figure I'll miss 5 turns since we'll probably be up to ~2 days/turn of hosting time at that point.

So consider this a public service announcement rather than a request for a delay.

I don't mind putting the game on hold for these 9 days as I will be myself on vacations from the 13th to 27th of July. Even if I will find a way to play from where I will be, the break will allow me to take care of other things

Sounds like a plan then. I'm not going anywhere, but I'm OK with breaking for those days... I dunno what to do about Squirrelloid's conflict though.

BTW, Congratz, Squirreloid!

I've got a sub lined up in all likelihood - don't worry about it =)

Now, so long as he doesn't screw me over too much worse than I'll have already screwed myself by then...

PS. I think just about everyone should have PMs from me for the current turn. Make sure you check your inbox!

May it please the assembled lords, the capricorns send their greetings and make the following announcements.

To our peers the esteemed Lords of Water World:
Keldanor of EA Oceania
Dweller in the Deep of Ea Atlantis
Vizier Khilbron of EA R'lyeh
Frozen Lama of MA R'lyeh

and with especial attention to the boorish and rude pretender of MA Atlantis, Erik.

Let it be known to the nations of Water World that MA Atlantis has refused to see our envoys for an entire month. As such, we must assume their silence represents an aggressive intent towards us and our people.

Let it be known that we will therefore consider ourselves at war with MA Atlantis until such time as they speak with us and an understanding is reached.

Let it be known that we will also be displeased with any nation which actively offers aid to our presumed enemy, and the measure of our response to such provocation shall be based on the extent of our displeasure.

The capricorns rule an honorable nation, and nations we feel have offended us will be given notice and allowed to correct their ways, either in public or in private as it suits our purposes. Failure to acknowledge our envoys will be treated as a hostile response and will not be tolerated.

Let it be known that the barbaric nation of MA Atlantis has until the current month ends to respond to our envoys or we will have no choice but to give free reign to our generals. We consider this a fair and just warning of the consequences their current actions merit.

Thus speaks the wisdom of the Capricorns.

I am going on vacation from the 13th to 28th of July. It won't prevent me from playing (I hope...) However as I will be travelling on Monday I would like to ask to delay the end of next turn (turn 14) to Tuesday 11pm GMT
Many thanks and sorry about the bothering.
