Octopus Overlords

You're also welcome to mark builds FINAL if you wish. The same practices apply.

NOTE:

I have Build orders of some sort from everyone.

I have FINAL Build orders from five players.

I have non-FINAL Build orders from two players.

Submitting non-FINAL orders means either (a) that you wish for the deadline (in this case, midnight tonight) to be enforced, or (b) that you wish to retain the option to change your orders between now and midnight.

That's fine. I just wanted to clarify that if you've submitted tentative orders, you can finalize them simply by shooting me a PM to that effect.

If everyone finalizes, I'll post results early. If somebody chooses not to finalize, I'll post results after midnight (whether in the wee hours or in the morning).[/quote]

I think as a penalty, Grund should have to award me a new supply center in Tuscany.

You can have one of Germany's in that game okay. Or come to sunny England where all we make are boats.

No retreat phase is required. Orders for 1902 Fall Movement phase are therefore due day after tomorrow, by midnight EST at Saturday's end.

Two of our seven have not yet sent orders.

Shall I give them more time, or shall I allow all their units to default to Hold?

Crud. That was my bad. I was thinking tomorrow (Sunday) night for some reason.

Grundbegriff wrote:Two of our seven have not yet sent orders.

Send them a PM and give them a bit of time. Giving all units hold orders tilts the game to much. Unless their orders screw me, in that case they are to late.

DEFAULT!!! HOLD!!! Bwa Hahahahaha!!!

The World is MINE!

Sorry, about that and thanks for waiting. I just sent my moves in.

Grundbegriff wrote: Imperatives:

• A. Don't sign up unless you can get your orders in on time.
• B. Don't sign up unless you're committed to following through.

Comments:

• I'm defining two imperatives: keep up, and don't bail.
• It's rude to bail when you're losing.
• It's rude to keep everyone waiting.

Reminder: orders due by midnight tonight for spring Movement.

NOTE:

I have orders of some sort from everyone.

I have FINAL orders from three players.

I have non-FINAL orders from four players. (If you're presently in negotiations with someone, this does not necessarily mean that he has already made up his mind or that you're being deceived. Players often submit tentative orders well in advance of the deadline just to be sure they don't end up holding-by-default if they accidentally miss that deadline).

Submitting non-FINAL orders means either (a) that you wish for the deadline (in this case, midnight tonight) to be enforced, or (b) that you wish to retain the option to change your orders between now and midnight.

It is Summer of 1903. Retreat orders in response to spring are due no later than tomorrow, by midnight EST at Thursday's end. However, the game will resume as soon as I receive all retreat orders.

I see we're getting that "Dislodged-from-Belgium shows as Dislodged-from-Channel" bug on the Fancy map.

Alas.

Whoa! Hold up. Those aren't the orders I sent. I even checked my Sent Items PM. Grund could you check my moves again?

Matthew wrote:Whoa! Hold up. Those aren't the orders I sent. I even checked my Sent Items PM. Grund could you check my moves again?

It appears that I have committed a Remus.

Matthew's actual orders were:

England: Matthew
A bel H
F eng S A bel
F nth S A bel
F nwy S F nth
A lon H

For this reason, he's not dislodged. (As a happy side-effect, we no longer have to suffer the agony of the jDip dislodged-from-Belgium bug.)

The fix will appear above, in the results post.
