I lied. Delayed a few days. There was fish to be caught. I’m on vacation.

And I buggered the turn summaries. Maybe I’ll figure out how it works in this new version on the next round.

Hello fellow gamers,

The first round of the X-DAP tournament has a completion date of August 31st. At this point if neither side concedes then tournament moderator Gargantua will decide which team moves on to the winning bracket and which team moves on to the extra death bracket.

This game is going to be a tough one to decide as it is so early in the game.

Kind regards,
allweneedislove

I’d imagine you’d want to scramble to sz112 as I don’t see any downside to it whatsoever.  Considering that, I’m going to go ahead and conduct combat as if you scrambled.

This game is moving quickly now. If we can get 1-2 turns per day, we can get through several more turns in a short time.

My partner is out of town at some conference for work.  He was going to try to take his turn late yesterday after work, but no dice, it appears.  I wanted to avoid this at all possible to allow him a chance to learn the game, but considering time and how busy he is right now, I’m going to have to take the US turn for him.
