Not sure about how much time I'll have or whether the computer I'll have access to will be able to handle the game.

A properly instructed substitute could probably do ok. The trick would be properly instructing.

Okay. Well, find one if you want to and can--or tell me to try to find one for you, if you want to do that (but I expect you wouldn't). Otherwise I'll delay.

What is the earliest time (including time zone reference) when you would certainly be free to take a turn on Monday? (A variance of several hours after a delay of several days isn't a big deal, of course, but those of us who occasionally reload the game status page on LlamaServer would feel better having an exact time to wait for.)

ok, i have a sub up through thursday. Do I PM you his e-mail address so you can change where the turn is sent?

He also won't be available friday - sunday, and possibly monday. But that's less of a delay than it would have been otherwise.

I'll be driving like all day monday, so if the turn was due like midnight i'd appreciate it. (US central timezone, not sure what that is in GMT offhand, or even which day, probably into tuesday)

Yes, send me that e-mail address. Also you'll have to tell me when you return--you may as well send your own e-mail address now.

Thanks for the info! I'll delay as needed.

Anyhoo I think this is the first game I've been in that made it this far without any stales. CAN WE KEEP IT UP

Mithras · #56 July 23rd, 2009, 04:26 AM

Sorry I just found out I'll be gone from sunday through tuesday (at least unitl afternoon time GMT) After the recent delays requested I feel guilty about asking it to be extended. If I indeed have to stale I'll try to stale in a non unbalancing way. Sorry about that.

Bananadine · #57 July 24th, 2009, 10:02 AM

Well, if you take a turn shortly before leaving, it wouldn't require much delay to keep you from staling.

Presently fussing over Squirrelloid substitution/delay details. Turn deadline is subject to change.

T'ien Ch'i is able to forge various items that will be available for trade. (Forge hammers, earth boots, nature boosters, and various other goodies) Please PM me if you are interested. Prices will be simply the standard gem cost.

We are also looking to acquire some death and/or nature gems. Gems offering to trade to acquire these include astral, air, and water. Again please PM me if interested.

Iainuki will be Eriu while Squirrelloid is busy, through early August. Diplomacy for Eriu should be sent to him.
