Don't have Jowy's orders.
I'm at a loss of what to do with this game, guys.
The idea behind Diplomacy is that you only have so much time and if you miss the deadline, you don't move.
I'm ok with longer turns, but there is a limit to where I am willing to go.
If you guys aren't interested in this game, we can just end it, but if you are willing to play, you should keep to the rules or deal with the consequences.
Hope to hear all your thoughts soon.

Well, I am probably going to be the next country out, so with regards carrying on, its not really up to me (I will happily play till I get eliminated)
As for turn sets, I would give Jowy till the end of today, but from then on, we say if you miss an extension (that has to be requested before the original deadline) then your armies all stay in place

I'll play on as well, though I do get the sense from my limited interaction with the other players that nobody's really enjoying this all that much, so I'd be fine if the majority vote was to end it.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Anyway, a big NO to ending this.

I don't care whether the game continues or ends. I'm not spending more than maybe 10 mins per turn on it right now anyway.
Jowy, would it really be that difficult for you to send in orders saying "I don't want to move anything", given that you had three days to do so?

Got all orders in time, but do not know when I can adjudicate.
Do you guys want the next turn to last 48 or 72 hours?

Hey Nakor, just a question. Is the monday deadline just for the english retreat or for all of our next moves?

Just the retreat order. I'll update now and post the new 72 hour deadline.

It looks like this isn't getting any better so I'm open to ending this game if everyone wants it.
