Hi,

I am very sorry about the late/lacking response.

Rasmus and I see that we are not able to do our moves on a regular basis. At times we might be able to, but often not. Often it could be weeks between our moves. We are just too busy IRL at the moment. I apologize for that.

So, we wonder how we should deal with this? We are willing to formally lose the game since we can’t fulfill any decent time table.

In any case, it is up to you whether you prefer to continue the game or not. Just now that we will probably play very slowly at times, with weeks between the moves. That is, in case you would like to keep the game going (we could agree that you are the formal winners of the game, no matter how the game goes). It is of course also quite understandable if you don’t have patience with this and prefer to just terminate the game.

Best regards,
Dan

Hi,

Sorry about the delay. We hope to get the move out on Friday. We will try to generally be quicker than this.

Dan

No scramble please.

Good luck, may the dice Gods be with you :)

Perhaps we have to forfeit unfortunately. I am not sure. I have played very few a&a games in recent years, and none in the last six months or so. I sort of counted on my teammate to be responsible for practical matters regarding the tournament. However, I am unsure whether we are able to play. I know that he just left with his family for a 5 weeks vacation to Thailand, think they left a few days ago.

Anyway, as far as I am concerned we would be happy to loose as forfeit or whatever it is called in English. Rasmus (my teammate), please respond if you are able to participate in the game and we are able to actually play.

Sorry about the inconvenience regarding this possible forfeit.

Hi,

I am sorry that we have not made a move in a very long time. We just didn’t have the time, sorry.

The way things stand, we prefer to stop that game. It has been so long, and we prefer to devote our limited time to other active games instead. I am very sorry about this.

Don’t know if it is desired to end the game in some official way? As far as we are concerned, we are fine with being the official losing team of the match, have no problems with that.

Anyway, thanks for an interesting game. For my part, I had fun with it when we had the time. Again, sorry about our erratic response time.

Regards,
Dan

Hi, just wanted to let you know that we will make a move eventually. I think Rasmus is on vacation, I haven’t heard from him recently.

Yes, we noticed that Japan defended well in that sea battle. Too bad for the future of Earth.

Thanks for the clarification regarding the France rules
