Turns of ACT037 game in Apolyton PBEM Tournament

[Helium Pond]

Did you really send a message to tau? Do we really have to boot him out? Is there no hope left at all? Is there no joy in Mudville?

[mark13]

I sent an e-mail to Nigel on Monday, and haven't had a response as of yet....I am beginning to lose hope....

I don't want to do this because Nigel has been a very reliable player up until now, but if he doesn't show up within the next few days we may have to find a replacement. What does everyone else think?

Edit: I've also just PMed Tau.

I think we should give it till Sunday.

[Tau Ceti]

It is up to you how long you want to give it. It has been 10 days, though.

Mark, the quickest way to reach me is by email. I read these threads every couple of days too, so posting here will often be enough. PMs might very well go unnoticed for quite some time,as I rarely receive any and rarely check.

[Helium Pond]

Well, I'll abide by majority vote. I didn't realize it's been ten days. On the other hand, we've only been alarmed about it in the last couple. So, I'm okay either way.

[mark13]

Sorry Tau, I thought it might be reasonably quick - I know wha you mean about rarely checking though, unless it happens to catch your eye....

Yeah, I'm happy to wait another week or so, it doesn't really bother me. If anyone wants to get on with it, that is also fine - I will be happy either way.

[Helium Pond]

Well, I don't want to wait a week or so. Sunday seems reasonable, but after that, I'd like to get back to it.

Hobbes?

Well I think a reasonable time has passed, time for a hopefully temporary sub.

[mark13]

Yeah, OK - should Nigel return, the game will go straight back to him - I will have to advertise for a sub....

[mark13]

OK, Hobbes - could you please send the last turn to Googlie, and we can take it from there!

[Hobbes_One]

Turn turned to Googlie!

Has everyone seen the thread at: http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum27/HTML/000326.html?6

It outlines a problem with this game & others.

[Googlie]

I've offered. I'm happy with a turn, or ten, or 100 - till Nigel returns or till the game is finished

G.

[Helium Pond]

Glad to know about that bug. I think, since it has affected all of us equally, we should just continue.

Oh, and welcome aboard, Goog-man!

Yes. As we are all playing on the same level I believe that it would be best to continue. Unfortunately I'm also affected by being the only player on transcend in ACT038 & by being in 2 other affected games: ACT039 & 040. Aaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhh!
