Ok, I will play the turn today, don't worry, so it would be good if we could do 1 turn a day.

Question - why does it say I am Provost Zakharov instead of Provost Psharkjf? Zakharov is kewl , but I would prefer my own name.
And, is 1 and only 1 colony pod normal?

We have taken our colony pod and established the glorious halls of University Base. Its glistening halls of labs will prove useful in the coming conflict.

Ouch. You are certainly supposed to have two colony pods. Not sure how that happened as I did a completely normal game start, but that is too crippling. This game will need to be restarted. I apologize to all involved for this.

I will fix the name in the new version too. But, if I manage to mess it up again, you can change it yourself by going to the Network menu and selecting 'Customize your faction'.

[Tau Ceti]

OK, the game has been restarted. Everyone gets two colony pods this time. Sorry about the inconvenience.

Curiously, in the game I originally sent out, you are called Psharkjf... I have no idea how that changed on the way to you.

[Tiger13]

Turn sent to Hive for the new restarted game.

University report - MY 2102
We have taken our colony pod and established the glorious halls of University Base. The other will head for territory unknown. UB's glistening halls of labs will prove useful in the coming conflict. Techs are everything. You can outarm, outgun, and outperform your enemy just by technology. What a wonderful discipline.

By brother (PsharkJF) hasn't gotten the turn and it has been a day, just a warning to EyeBall to send the turn within 1 day or the game has to be cancelled... right TC?

(He'd post this, but I'm online )

[Tau Ceti]

The rules as written state 48 hours per player, so it could be up to six days before Psharkjf gets it again and it would still be within the rules... no one said PBEM was fast. I prefer that players take their turns as quickly as possible and notify the others if it will be more than 48 hours, but considering the way the rule has been practiced so far (quite leniently), AND the fact that the time limit has not even expired, this game is not in grave risk of being cancelled yet.
