hi guys,

this just a friendly reminder that it is the half way mark of the 2nd round which finishes october 31st.

kind regards,

We still playin’???

Hey fellas from Dark Tea Time… the tournament rules are that if there is no correspondence from a side and there is a 10 day lag between posts, Garg can make a ruling on the game being over. Since you can’t tell my friendliness level over e-mail, please know that I’m on a consideration/friendliness level of 10 out of 10…  :-D

I just want you guys to know, so we can either crank out some turns or go on to the next game.

Thanks -

at the current pace of your game it looks like you will not finish the game by the end of the month or even get far enough for Garg to make an informed decision in declaring a winner.

i suggest you try to co-ordinate a time that all can meet to play live in the triplea lobby and finish or get a several rounds in.

We’re just awaitin…
