Thank you. But really I think it says more about my days at work.

'Kenneth I' would be a fine name, I was really hopping to settle the 3rd city and keep the Ed-thing going. Such is life.

I don't know what happened. It seems like both v2.42 succession games have come to a grinding halt. From what I can tell, I passed the save to HsFB on 11/14. HsFB downloaded it on 11/17 and said that he'd pass it by the 20th. Today is 8 days since my pass.
I can tell you that I left HsFB with 2 cities and 3 troops to move for 10 turns.
I am not sure what happened. Who is keeping the history for this game? Johnmcd, is that you? Do we continue with Hueij? Do you need me to pass the game again? I'd like this succession to continue.

I think we can live with the 15 turn mistake.

I don't have a problem with that. This very issue came up during another succession game. People started passing the save on when they knew they couldn't play within a reasonable time period. I think the move to 10 moves from 20 moves was also an attempt to speed things up.
How would we enforce this? Maybe the person that starts the game and keeps it's history, monitors the thread and determines when a save must be passed to the next person.
The same thing has happened on the AKC succession. I don't want to be the hard ass, but I think 3 days is plenty of time.

I know it's only been a day here, but another succession game (mge n-ics sg) is getting ready to declare Maud Dib missing in action. He has not posted there since the 23rd or here since the 10th.
Do I wait 2 more days or pass the game to Hueij today, who seems to regret quitting? Johnmcd, what do you say?

Since nobody seems to care, I'll wait.
Day 2.

Ok. See, a little feed back helps me understand what is going on. Do you have a site that you could post the file to? Could you try a new, free email service? address.com, yahoo.com, altavista.com, etc. all have free email services.
There is always a work around.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude by ignoring you, I normally post at work but have been too busy of late. I am at home just now.
I say we scratch him, pass the save on to Hueij.
If you would like to send me a copy at johnmcdiarmid@newscientist.net I'd appreciate it, I haven't seen a save since my first turn.

I think we need an updated list of players. It looks like Muad Dib is MIA. Unless he claims otherwise. I'd pass the save onto Johnmcd when you are done.

I have the file and I'm playing it now as I speak. I have a rear day off today. Can't wait for the holidays to be over so I can go back to my normal work schedule.
3 days until DUNE!!!
