Just a heads up, I'm going on a small vacation until Sunday. I expect to be able to play the saves on it, but there may be some delays (specifically tonight as I will be on a plane during my usual play time).

I am, although to be fair I haven't had that much interest for the past 50 turns or so, so that's nothing new. If others still have interest I am fine continuing to play and send on my turns when I get them, although if you guys are losing interest I'd also be fine calling it a game.

Between starting college and everything else in my life, I honestly don't have nearly as much time as I used to plot and write long flowery thread updates :D The little time I do have I am devoting to PB6. I will continue to play if you guys want to, but like Shoot, my heart isn't into this game anymore.

Did we reach any consensus on continuing or ending the game?

Hey guys,
I know that most of you have other games that you're more interested in, and I know that some of you have expressed that you're not nearly as interested in this game as you once were.
Still, I'd like to ask as a courtesy that we try to get our turns back moving quickly. For most of this game we were pretty consistently getting one turn a day. Slow turns are the deathknell of games like these. As an example, the last turns I've had have been 8/26, 8/31, 9/5 and (hopefully?!) today (9/8).
Again, I know for some of you your heart might not be in to the game as much, but I'm sure you would hope that other folks would soldier on if the situations were reversed right? Nospace - wouldn't you be frustrated if Ruff or Ad Hoc stopped consistently playing turns in PBEM13? Or Shoot / Dave, doesn't the lack of a consistent pace in PB6 make things frustrating or less engaging than they might otherwise be? And of course when you've put in an investment of 100+ turns in the game even more so.
I haven't really been keeping close track of who is sitting on the save, so I am not trying to blame any team / person in particular. I just know that we're a lot slower than we were a month or so ago
Thanks guys!
