We have a draft ready to go. I said I'd give them 48 hours from when I spoke with Caledorn, and it's been about 40. Here's the draft I'll send in a few hours if I don't hear from them.
Draft to CFC Wrote:CFC,
I talked to Caledorn the other day by chat, and I wanted to send you guys an official message directly as it sounds like he is pretty busy right now. We agreed to a marble gift from T165-T175, so we don't have to worry about that issue anymore.
That said, we do need to be pretty direct with your team. We mentioned a NAP extension in our email almost 2 weeks ago. In your response to us, you completely dodged that part of the question, which we of course did notice. I asked Caledorn about it directly, and he indicated he isn't sure how the team feels.
I hope you can understand our caution here, because we see 1) your team ignoring the NAP comments and 2) a massive military buildup from your team together, and it's pretty natural for us to want to know what's going on. Should we be preparing for war with you on T175, or would you prefer we extend our peace? Really we just want to know what your preference is on the issue - we're game either way.
Thanks,
scooter - Team RB

From Spanish team:
Spanish Apolyton Wrote:well, I will check with our militar advisor, but looks like we will
have no big problems to resist 25 turns...
As the war ends just in a peace offer with no confirmation or
negotiation we had not stop watching our frontiers and buildings
defenses.... Thanks anyway for the advice.
Are you interested in joining us in 25 more turn so? It will depend in
wich kind of units we build if we know you are getting involved then
So basically we just need to say "sorry we can't make any promises on if we can join, but we will definitely keep you posted."
Also, I don't think these guys have a prayer of holding out against all the pop CFC has whipped. But maybe they'll surprise us.

I'm very happy with the diplomacy we've been doing recently. Great work scooter and everyone else.
Just to clarify: should I be offering an ivory for dyes trade with the Spanish in-game right now?

Go ahead. The sooner we get this going the better.
Furthermore, I consider that forum views should be fluid in width

Just make sure that we don't have any active WE builds and that AO and GM won't become unhappy from the lack of ivory.
I have to run.

So I just got this email from YossarianLives from team CFC:
Yossarian/CFC Wrote:Hi Scooter,
I thought I remembered your email address from when you shared it in the Team Gillette threads, but I guess I got it wrong (see email below)! At any rate, I am stepping in for Caledorn temporarily. Feel free to chat me anytime.
He also forwarded me an email he sent two days ago to the wrong email address for me. I'll catch him on chat soon when I get some time and see if I can gauge CFC's interest in a NAP extension.
Also, this is generally good news. Yossarian has been active in stuff over here quite a few times and is definitely a nice guy overall. Hopefully that makes it easier to get a read on CFC's attitude.
