Lung's FAST! Pbem - Part III

[Lung]

I'm not sure of my movements over the next couple of days, so if i don't play my turns within 24 hours of receiving them, please send my turn to Don at donny@orc.ca

Turn 85 to Stavros a couple of hours ago.

[Lung]

For what purpose does the Dutch diplomat seek Australian passage? The Dutch already have an embassy with Australia, so why does he seek our lands? Faithful Australian soldiers kindly turned the diplomat in the direction he calls home

[Paul]

There have been rumours about other lands beyond the Australian territory and our diplomat was in his way to visit those lands. We kindly ask you to let him pass through your territory.

[Stavros]

Turn -> Paul

Happy to be rated

[Paul]

Turn 85 to Jon. An Australian slaver has been expelled from Dutch territory.

So is this game being turned into a RATED game, or not? (And that doesn't mean X-RATED Lung ) I see that Paul and TheBirdMan would like it so. And I think Lung would like a chance to brag some more about his rating. Just let me know and I will make it so! (With the ever powerful approval of Solver, OF COURSE!!)

Suppose if this game will be rated, Lung will accept - he is in lead and will probably (are this word correct spelled?) be so quite a few turn yet

But I'm no. 2

By the way - I has seen next turn (I think). Unfortunately it's on my pc at work right now! Have to wait until tomorrow

Well, as long as you asked BirdMan... (Believe me your English is 1000 times better than my Danish, and your spelling is fine, it's just that your grammer is a little off.) Here is how I would state what I think you're saying:
------------
"I suppose if this game BECOMES rated, Lung will accept, AS he is in THE lead and will probably (IS this word CORRECTLY spelled?) be so FOR quite a few more turns yet TO COME. But I'm in SECOND!

By the way -- I HAVE seen THE next turn (I think). Unfortunately, it's on my pc at work right now! I have to wait until tomorrow."

Dropping pronouns and articles is a common thing to do, but it makes it hard to understand sometimes.

Hey - thanks. It is just what I want.

[TheBirdMan]

Turn 85 to Lung.

Times are changes, sir. As Senator Maximus had just finished his morning bath, an officer came in:

"Merchants have just arrived from the great unknown. They had both great news and some dire news with them.

First: Rome has become the greatest power. Your skill is beyound compare, you have brought this nation to the absolute lead.

Second: There are rumours about a comming war. Under their travel to Rome, the merchants has seen some clear signs of unrest between other nations. They cannot tell us between who - no landing was made as they didn't want to risk their cargo."

I sent turn 85 to Stavros 47 hours ago, so i don't know what BirdMan's on about I haven't received turn 86

[Stavros]

I sent it on to paul a couple of hours later...

[TheBirdMan]

Hovsa (as we say in danish )

Turn 86 is on it's way to Lung.

[quinns]

....merchants HAVE seen (not "merchants has seen")

...between WHOM (not "between who"... very picky here as most EVERYONE in the States (including me) would say "between who"!)
