i've got to solve some mesoamerican "issues" before i play the turn...

[jshelr]

some of my troops wandered off the reservation into Dutch territory. they have messaged back that they are drinking "beer" and also something about "blonds," whatever that means. Our monarchial presence has no idea what they are talking about. Should be able to find out tomorrow. Likely it was all a big mistake.

[sabrewolf]

still waiting for a real answer

[jshelr]

The Maya have sent the requested clarification and apologise for causing any anxiety

our reputation for honesty and integrity is clearly in tatters

[sabrewolf]

after recieving the first non-twaddle-wish-wash promise from the mayan, i've sent the turn on.

from no on i don't want to hear anymore "maybe's" and "we'll see" and such BS. we're all men here, we know that "yes" and "no" exist...

[jshelr]

Our troops have reluctantly departed from the Dutch tavern with only a minor incident to report. They are reluctantly returning to our mosquito infested jungles, apparently with fond memories.

non-twaddle-wish-wash doesn't really translate well. in my ancestral tounge, I believe the term you are searching for is "blarney"

sent, more or less as an aftertought

[sabrewolf]

i didn't even know the proper word in german. then i looked up some slang ("wischiwaschi")... and was surprised that it existed. 2 translatiosn: twaddle and wish-wash. didn't know which was better, so i took both

i looked up "blarney" too.. that's not what i meant

Snoopy369 (snoopy369 at yeehaw) has kindly offered to take the abuse from you guys while I'm gone.

He might not make the morning slot though, unless he gets the save very early.

I leave today, in about 5 hours. I might check my e-mail and 'poly once or twice when I'm gone. Back in 2 weeks.

[jshelr]

Enjoy your respite from our company.

no problem because of the morning slot because i probably won't make it often either. in 2 weeks all is over and i should have a lot more time...

I recall that my thesis advisor died at just the stage Sabre is now and nobody else in the department could figure out what the hell i was doing. So they passed me

[snoopy369]
