        • Sorry, there apparently was a bit of a snafu with the turn that I had sent originally, but it should be fixed now. 3400 BC to Mongols.

              • I think that everyone here is quite patient and will have no problem waiting, even days if necessary. I really enjoy being part of a PBEM game, and I look forward to participating in them for quite some time.



                Because communication is always a good thing, I think it would be best if we let each other know when we will be unable to play. Taking a one day vacation is perfectly understandable - not everyone can get to their computer daily. However, if any of us will be unable to take a turn for more than a day or two, I think it would be best if you let everyone know. I know Fall break is approaching in the US and some of the University students will be away for a couple days. In instances like this I think it would be best if we let everyone know when you are unavailable. What does everyone think? Is this cool with everyone?

                  • Sure aryonis, its quite ok to be away for few days, just notify about it before so nobody thinks otherwise.

                    But if only one player at a time is away, then maybe aryonis use his admin rights and press the enter a few times If nothing special is happening in that players game (for example war or wonder race).

                      Communication always seems like a good idea to me. To that end, I'm actually going to be gone the entire last week in November.(November 25-Dec 1) I might be able to log in once or twice during the week, but as it stands now, the place where I'll be has a malfunctioning internet connection.

                      I wouldn't mind having someone hit enter for me for any turn up to 2950 bc.

                      I had another thought. I may see if I can find a substitute to take my turn for me.

                      • To keep the game moving along, I would be willing to do that. As before, I will simply cover the screen and click end turn now, then send the turn to the next person in line. I will ONLY do this if the player requests it be done. The player may also request how many turns it may be done for.

                        I will also maintain a list of "planned unavailability". It will be located next to the player list on the first post.

                        So, If anyone will be unavailable to take their turn for more than, say, 48 hours (?) - post that you will be unavailable and say whether or not your turn may be 'skipped'. (By skipped I mean an administrators log on and end turn). If you agree to have them skipped post how many turns is permissible.

                        Alternatively you may select a substitute - to do so simply let us know how to reach him/her, and how long they will sub in. For obvious reasons, this substitute should not be someone playing ASNG. Even the closest ally would be in a conflict of interests so it is probably a bad idea.

                            I should add that I may or may not be able to play from Nov 23 to Nov 30 too. I'll look for a substitute in case the answer turns out to be no.

                            • I wouldn't worry about finding substitutes for Fall Break. I think that at least three of us will be unavailable so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

                              Would anyone be interested in a cram session either before or afterwards? Perhaps next weekend or the first weekend we return? A nice three hour cram session could be an exciting way to maintain everyones interest....

                              • Random, I didn't get the save game via e-mail, please re-send.

                                I'll play my turn first thing in the morning, or as soon as possible tomorrow after I get the save.

                                As far as fall break goes, I'll have limited availability the majority of the time. Also would be available for a cram session during the weekends berfore or after.
