Holding for a week is fine, though.

Sorry guys, I don't think I would be a good alternative. With modding the other game and life responsiblities, I think I would be more a liability than a help at this time. However, if you just need someone to pick plantations, I can do that. If I just know how many are left of each kind.

Although, isn't Remus going to have A LOT of free time soon?

I can provide the shuffled discards to a third seventh party for use in my absence.

It was a rhetorical question.

He'll be free once he's updated Arkham, so roughly 2015.

Arkham? What's that? Never heard of it. Anyway, he should have a lot of free time since the school year is ending. I'm just not sure when his last day is.

Today is his last day of class but I don't know when his last day of responsibilities is. I also don't know what he needs to knuckle under and do now that he's finishing his last day of class.

Really, if we had the option to run to you for plantation flipping, that's all we should need. Between the rest of us we should be able to muddle no through, correcting each other as necessary.

If I give you a list of plantations, can you dump them in the List Randomizer and then deal the next six once or twice?

The only wrinkle is that the discards from the currently displayed six should go into the stack before shuffling. (If we reach another Settler phase before tonight is up, that won't be an issue.)

Sure, I can do this. Just send me what is left to be revealed (A) and in a seperate list, what has been discarded (B). Once A becomes depleted, I can shuffle the remaining list of A's into the B's and redeploy. Not hard.

Better: what is left to be revealed, which is a group of three, goes into slots 1-3 of the deal. The discard pile, after randomization, is used to fill in the remaining three slots.

It's not that I mistrust The Random. After all, random is random. It's just that my spreadsheet already reflects those three!

LordMortis ships corn, since he cannot ship Indigo.

That fills the corn boat.

Unable to ship corn, Qantaga ships sugar.
El Guapo has nothing left to ship.
Newcastle ships 2 tobaccoi.
Chaosraven ships one of his remaining two sugars.

Chasoraven has a sugar and an indigo. He stores both.
LordMortis has two indigoi. He must spoil one.
