The long wait is over.....
« on: April 19, 2009, 09:23:09 PM »
Steps into a wide open space that was once a forum. Looks around hoping to see anything, but is only met with insignificant shades of white and blue. Blinks a couple of times and tries to find something to focus on. But there is nothing.

Then I make a post and finally there is activity on the forum agian ^_^

I think the silence of the members is due to the waitinf for the end of the DOs processing ;)

lets just try to stay calm, don’t do anything that could disturb the DO processing, there is no need to panic, the next turn will get out when it’s all done and ready, just stay calm :-)

The important thing is not to post while trembling with anticipation.

Rage in silence. Go kill a neighbor or eat something threatened by extinction. Anything to keep going without the DO... just one more day at a time.  ;D

I find it easier to wait knowing that I don't wait alone. Good to hear from you all ^_^

S&C turns are always a bit long.  The sheer amount of text to wade through is immense, and it's easy for a player to have wound up doing 2-3 times as many full actions as usual thanks to all those free Diplomacies, which translates directly into work for the DMs.  Future turns, being neither the first turn nor the S&C, will probably go faster.

Of course, then we hit the first turn out of the grace period.  Which could be long simply because it'll take a while for the DMs to make it through all the carnage ;)

As I am sure is well know among all herin, and most likely have been mentioned innumerable times well before I was remotely aware of this existence, and is such a common fact that to speak of it in any length is but a waste of moments better spent, but I say it in passing, for the shear amusement and for lack of other small talk. A processed turn is never late, nor is it ever early, for it will always arrive at the precise moment it was intended to arrive.

It's all in the works... We've suffered a setback due to Bjørn's injury and I'm still learning the art of actually processing a DO, so a week more is probably a good bet, maybe more depending on Bjørn's recovery.

A full week or one of those tiny weeks where half the days are sorta not there?  ;D

Oh well, might aswell just work then.  :)
