Turn #65 Status

[DM B]

Hi,

I'm trying to get things rolling again, and have spent a while checking through my backlog of e-mails and replying to them. I have a few more to go, but unless you get a reply to YOUR e-mail by today you MUST inform me - sometimes things slip through the DMs net of ever-catching.

I'm also hoping that most of you are still here and ready to hand in your DOs by Sunday. As always it is possible to apply for extensions; just don't do nothing at all.

Hopefully processing will take 2 weeks and from then on I'm AIMING at 6 week turns (its either that or terminate the game - turns 64/65 have taken waaay too long).

[X-Tuornen/LF (Geir)]

should things go bad I hope downsizing will be chosen before termination Mr DM. A smaller more dedicated player stock in an area centred more closely on the main coastal domains should be a prosperous venture well worth exploring 

[DM B]

Termination is NOT imminent at this point

Tornilen --> Extension

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

I am sick but would like to hand in a slightly changed DO. Hope it is ok. Nothing totally new to you Bjørn - some updates to diplomacy and some updates to internal stuff allready discused with you a while ago I believe.

Sorry for the inconvinience

[X-Elinie/RiD (Niels)]

Haven't been up to it. Apologies, its a big one to restore and its all over the place since PC has been switched during turn. I'll get it done... soon... And it will contain no surprises, the gist of it was in my mail.

Just... So big a task.

[DM B]

There is something of a dilemma here; I'm missing DOs from a huge swathe of the landed domains...Mhoried, Elinie, Tornilen, Ghieste, Roesone - the entire central playing field. That's something of a problem

I don't know if it will be solved by simply waiting...but it seems I'll have to wait a few more days and see. If no more DOs turn up I suppose I'll have to move forward.

[X-Tuornen/LF (Geir)]

any word at all from Ghieste, Mhoried or Roesone? 

[DM B]

No, no and no.

[X-Tuornen/LF (Geir)]

I’m no expert on BR. But if this had been a more average size game I would say we are missing half the map… Lucky for us this BR game is a bit larger then average. 
Soooo, they will be MIA this turn? Two times MIA is a KIA? 

[X-Elinie/RiD (Niels)]

I've spoken to Tornilen and tried to badger him into action. Some lethargy, inspired by the droppage of Ghieste and Roesone... I'll keep on his back though. He said he would try to get something in.

Alex! If you're reading this, get that DO written! - Also, send me 10 gold back! 

[DM B]

You could always try, but when people haven't logged into the forum since December and have ignored repeated polite inquires there really isn't much point...

I'll move forward with what I've got and we'll see what holes need filling once turn 66 begins.

[X-Tuornen/LF (Geir)]

Really good to get going again!

Thanks for a great game Bjorn!

Gray is in rural Utah dealing with some family matters.

I have been tasked with locating the remenants of his turn and submitting them to you (I shipped his laptop to him today though after he left it in Logan International Airport)...

I have been informed that they are mostly character actions with nothing affecting others players per se.

He should be back in a week or two.
