For you-know-who ^_^

Makahlua · August 31, 2003, 16:31

Uh, whoops, I didn't empty the bottle first, sorry!

Turn 2133

To forestall the future accusations of me forgetting to notify the university.
This email was sent to the email addresses of the two main university players about 14 hours ago.

Maniac · September 1, 2003, 10:29

I wasn't "accusing" you last time. I was simply asking a question, because IIRC last time Archaic didn't play withing 48 hours was because the Hive turn player hadn't sent a PM or mail or something.

Kody · September 1, 2003, 10:37

That was back in turn 2121 or something when I didn't send the email. My original ignorance will forever haunt me.

Hercules · September 1, 2003, 11:51

You mean 'Forgetful' Kody, that sort of thing.

Edit: Sorry should not have posted that in this thread, as we're keeping it clear of S**m.

2133 to CyCon.

Drogue · September 3, 2003, 19:22

Turn passed. It's good to be properly back

Hercules · September 4, 2003, 22:12

Turn 2133 direct to Buster and Mongoose. Pirate matie asked to post here for others

Makahlua · September 5, 2003, 01:44

*empties bottle carefully first this time*

buster · September 5, 2003, 12:27

2134 to Hive

Kody · September 6, 2003, 00:16

Turn to University 2134

GeneralTacticus · September 7, 2003, 04:09

2134 to CyCon.

Drogue · September 7, 2003, 17:37

Turn passed

Hercules · September 8, 2003, 21:10

Turn 2134 passed to Buster and Mongoose direct for onward transmission to their colleagues.

I have asked Pirate matie who slept on the floor outside the new Temple of Planet cafe / restaurant to use one of the empty bottles to post turn here for other Drone maties.

Also I asked that they recycle ( delete) the old bottles filled with earlier turns.

Of course whether they are in a fit state to do so is another question.

Makahlua · September 8, 2003, 22:13

*tosses a bottle out into the sea*

buster · September 9, 2003, 05:15

2135 to Hive

Kody · September 9, 2003, 06:50

It was expected that turn 2135 was going to be complicated turn. Now due to unexpected events it's going to be a really really complicated turn.

To put simply delays expected.... at this time I would say the full 48 hours, but I hope for much shorter.

Drogue · September 12, 2003, 04:29

Almost 70 hours Kody. Any ideas of when we can expect it?

Kody · September 12, 2003, 04:51

Nup. No clue at all it's completely out of my hands.

*shrugs*

Maniac · September 12, 2003, 05:09

How do you mean it's out of your hands? Aren't you the turn player? Even if you aren't, you should play the turn as the 48 hours have passed.

Kody · September 12, 2003, 05:20

I haven't been authorised.

Bureaucracy at it's best. Ask Voltaire about it. The turn is currently finished and hanging in our private forum awaiting authorisation.

Edit:

I was informed it would all get sorted out, but it didn't.

Also I didn't realise this would happen so I didn't ask for authorisation in special case scenerio.

I need Chairman's veto or a majority vote to continue.
I guess I better start the poll to post the turn now in case the chairman doesn't turn up.

Edit:

I also put in some instructions to the chairman in case he's around when I'm not.

Corellion · September 12, 2003, 08:30

Err... the 48 hour limit is not subject to roleplay delays. If you have all this bureaucracy to go through, then feel free to roleplay it our up to the 48 hours, but no further.

Kody · September 12, 2003, 09:14

I considered doing that, however I want my teammates to come up with decisions rather than making decisions on my own.

Drogue · September 12, 2003, 09:19

After 48 hours anyone can play and post. If it needs authorisation do it before 48 hours, as Corellion said. Technically, this should be your first formal warning IIRC.

Maniac · September 12, 2003, 09:25

I'm behind Corellion. What you do in those 48 hours is up to you, but the turn needs to be posted within 48 hours. A faction's internal matters cannot interfere with that. The entire game may not suffer because one team has a lack of activity, or is roleplaying an inefficient bureaucracy. Roleplay a dictator instead!

/me remembers Kody complaining when the Pirates were too late, saying they should deal with their issues before the next turn arrives.

Including the gods.

Although being kind and giving leeway is also an option

Edit: As is not spamming the Turn Tracking Thread

Huh the university turn is downloaded already?
And GT or Archaic aren't even around.

That was me, please don't delete the file before our turn players have gotten it.
