Dip 50, Imp3 - NEEDS A NEW FRANCE

[MDR]

Hey All,

Dip 50 needs a new France. The position is a little battered, but still playable. You can find the current map under the Dip50 SUMMER RETREATS thread. Will someone help us out?

Thanks in advance.

[MDR]

Still looking...

Anyone willing to take this position?

[Defiant]

C'mon Chazzy, dis-engage Jillian from your nipple and join the war! I promise not to stab you right away

[MDR]

There's no one on this board willing to take this position?

[Du_Chateau]

I guess I will take the position if noone wants it.

[orange]

if you don't want it Du, I'll take it.

[Victor Galis]

No offense, but I'd probably feel safer with orange taking over.

[Defiant]

It doesn't matter what you think Victor, you gave up the country, if it mattered to you , you wouldn't have quit. Du Chateau asked first, he should be allowed to get it.

[orange]

Ok then, put me down as a back up if you need another replacement.

[Victor Galis]

I didn't quit, I ordered all my units proxied to Holland. Then MDR just started looking for a replacement. And I just said nothing because it lightens my diplomacy games load.

[RUFFHAUS 8]

So, who's playing France right now? Confederate minds want to know?

[Defiant]

Victor,
You can only proxy your units at the dicretion of the GM, and MDR realizes proxying those units would be stupid so he is looking for a replacement, which is the correct procedure. You don't get to tell him that you want your units proxied, it must be agreed upon by the GM. So in essence, you did quit, regardless of your reasoning.

President Ruffhaus VIII of CSA,
is that...........................conceded minds want to know.

[MDR]

Du's got the country since he asked first.

Victor, you quit. You weren't even going to write orders for your own units. Let someone else give it a shot.

If you had something like four units left & proxied them, I would have let that go through. Proxying yourself to Holland now would have made him too powerful without him earning it.

Well, thanks to the amount of time it took to get a replacement France, I doubt we'll get to the next turn until after the Holidays. I'll be out of internet contact from Dec. 12th to Jan. 7th. It'll take at least to December 12th for Du to get settled in with the country.

Who was supposed to be the temp GM in times of need? We set it up at the beginning of the game, when everyone was having trouble trying to find a full-time GM for the game. Was it Snowfire?

[Defiant]

MDR,
First of all, have a nice vacation, we should start asking people but I will try and persuade Chazzy, as long as it is temporary, he just finished off Titans and his outlook is bleak in Frontier, so he might be willing. That is of coarse if Snowfire doesn't want to do it, he might enjoy GM'ing this game temporarily.

[MDR]

It will be temporary. I would do it over the holidays since I'd actually have some extra time, but I won't have access to the internet, much less a machine that can view the map.
