As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"
I have successfully tested loading the game from my work laptop via my USB HD and it works. So I should be able to at least log in once every 24hrs to quickly play my turn while on vacation next week. I will be posting my password and some minor instructions in my thread, just in case. If there ends up being a time when there are less than 5 hours on the clock for next week (until April 12th), I ask that a lurker log in to quickly handle the turn.

I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

Not under my control. Caledorn or Novice can do it. Also Azza have you forgotten to play the turn? I see you did play PB13 earlier today.

Thursday is my busiest day, and I only had time to fit in PB13 earlier. Played now.
I just crashed to desktop while logging out of the game while Whosit was logged in. Whosit, is the game still OK?
