It was an editorial comment, but not directed at you, Nate.
I had reason to expect a postponement, but let’s just say I expected life would be more interesting as a result than it was. Such is life.
I’m not the paranoid sort, RT. I was referring to your belief that turns should be adjudicated right away.
Let me guess…you have this PAGE bookmarked in your browser…don’t you?
You can admit it. We’re all friends here.
Huh??
I don’t care if turns aren’t adjudicated right away. I do have a hard time not knowing whether a delay means somebody’s “pulling a Corrado” that (non-)move.
Trust me. I’ll beat the crap out of people NMRing on me these days.
It’s like I’ve broken through to some strange place where protecting peoples’ reputation no longer matters…
Well, before y’all start pointing fingers and gettin’ your drawers all in a bunch, I’ll have y’all know that the delay is not due to me. sniff I’ve been sending my orders in on time. :):p:)
Yeah, suuuuuure, that’s what they all say. 
You wanna talk bookmarks?
The night before the adjudication, after I send in my orders, I write out the URL for the page that’ll show that turn once it happens, and I bookmark THAT.
And that’s no doubt a good thing…
Because Fall 1903 in Dip 983 has been adjudicated. It’s ugly.
It makes it hard for me to tap my foot manically when Jonathan’s adjudicated before I get to my office! 
And sheez louise…“ugly” is such an ugly word. 
But an honest one…
Careful with the sandbagging, there. Or I’ll say something disastrous like calling you the ‘Game Leader’ or something.
Jeepers, RT, you better do what he says. You don’t want that to happen. Trust me on that.
Yeah, except at this point in the game, I can point out that Italy and I have the same number of bases, and you’re right behind us. So that kinda splits the potential for abuse.
Come now. Living in the nation’s capital, you should know that mere facts got nothing in the face of innuendo, perception and gossip.

Holy crap!
Did you guys see that!
France just gained three centers last turn! He totally wiped out England (he swept across the Isles like lightning)! Look at all that turquoise over there… turquoise from the Riviera, to Gibraltar, to the fjords! Geez!
[sub]Abe Babe, you forgot demagoguery, catch-phraseage (and hot-button pushing), and panicked hyperbole.[/sub]
[sub]Italy? Italy who?[/sub]
Fortunately, turquoise isn’t exactly a scary color.
Besides, I haven’t gotten to the fjords yet.
But I’m workin’ on it.

I’ve been trying to warn all you folks about the baby blue menace for some time now.
:eek: What happened to my country! RTFirefly, you ought to be ashamed of yourself for taking all my lands and stuff! You’re making me look like the worst Dip player in the history of the game. I was so busy looking east and south that I forgot about my territory to the west. [sigh] There’s just too much to try to keep track of. Oh, I’m so embarrassed. I demand satisfaction in the next game that crops up, provided I have time to play it.
…from now on you’re officially The Baby Blue Menace.
I love it.
[sub]There could be fjords in Northern Ireland… or Iceland…[/sub]
Sorry, hon - the wife won’t hear of it.
