Bunny's too slow, so our replacement for Britain is Symmetry. The USA will remain leaderless. He should be posting his contact info soon. I'll mail him the map so he can do moves.

Hello all. You can reach me at aclough@mit.edu. I'm occasionally on IM, but since I've switched to Trillian I've tended to forget to log on... You can also just PM me and I'll be checking that semi-regularly.

Since I stupidly sent out a map with lots of spring moves on it, I'm afraid I'm going to force Britain to take a NMR for one season and we'll begin the game in Fall 1863. I'll set a date tomorrow because I'm so very much tired right now...

The first map you sent wasn't any different from the later map you sent. So I'm not sure thats needed.

Looking at the moves again, yes I do see a couple of moves around the Pacific. However, even if I had noticed when I sent my moves to him (which I hadn't) thats no reason to prevent me from moving at all in the upcoming turn. If he wants to redo those two moves based on his knowledge of *all* my moves he's welcome to, but please don't penelize those actions I took which have nothing to do with them. I think I'm starting at enough of a disadvantage here.

Some of us are trapped in central Europe surronded by hostile powers. Quiet down, for *I* am the true underdog! :)

I can't believe we're arguing about who's losing.

When are the moves due?

Bleh, can you send it to flatlined96817@hotmail.com? I have a feeling that my regular account is too full to accept anymore.

Well I just came back to life after schoolwork to find I'm still missing Japan and Turkey's replacement moves.

The reason for the next week of delays was due to Holland informing me that he lost interest in the game and even more work. We have no more alts on the list and I don't know where we'd get more... I also apologise because my schoolwork simply keeps obstructing me.

I say we just say he fell into civil disorder, or whatever it is.
