Maillists sending to maillists :D ...

Can only go wrong ...

Hey everybody,

Unfortunately, I think the save will be on hold for a bit. I have been playing the turns for Sian due to his computer problems, but since I was planning to withdraw from the game pretty much since the game started and due to the fact that we are approaching the part of the game were there're a lot of strategic decisions to be made, it's best if Sian can play it with his own hands.

So, the save will be on hold until Sian's computer problems are solved, which shouldn't take that long anymore, I think.

Ah, and this is my formal withdrawal from the game. Don't be surprised if I show up in one of your threads to spam a bit, it won't be spy work :neenernee.

Is that not a bit odd? Why not withdraw *before* it started?

That was in a figurative sense, sorry if I'm not making myself clear.

If you read the sign-up thread, you'll see that I joined Sian as a ded-lurker, maybe playing a turn here and there when needed, not as a turn player. That was because I wouldn't have the time to be a full time player. I have been doing my best to cover for Sian due to his computer problems, which was something I didn't expect to have to do for so long, but now it won't be possible anymore.

So, in a way, I withdrew before it started, since technically I was just a ded-lurker. Heck, I'm not even in the thread title :neenernee.

Sorry if I caused problems to any of you.

trust me ... i didn't expect it to take this long either ... i fully expected to have my computer back somewhere 10-14 days ago ... but theres not much you can do when Seller and manufactoring company manages to talk past each other for two weeks, not getting anywhere because they disargee on what they believe the other is saying

at least I'll (knock-wood) get it back sometime this week, unless they managed to screw up again

Maybe you should find another teammate then? Doesn't seem like a good plan to have a team where one teammate had to quit the game and the other one does not have a computer.

I'll keep on playing until Sian gets his computer back. I cannot guarantee the 1t per day pace, but I'll do my best.

Sorry for all the inconveniences. I already sent today's save to nospacespirits.

Thanks Ichabod!

Hey no offence meant, it was just funny that we started this game without a proper team in place. I did read through your comments in the tech thread.

We appreciate you playing all the turns. No worries if it's not every day.

Yuck, sorry to hear you're having to deal with all that manufacturer bs sian. Hopefully they get their act together and take care of you.

And thanks for sticking this out ichabod. A slow turn pace is better than no turn pace!
