Perhaps I'm slightly paranoid, but I checked to see my order status and got the "Your Orders are Missing" message. I've received confirmatory e-mails for my orders in both games, however. Could other people check and see if everybody's getting that message right now?
Originally posted by orfeoIt's certainly not as professional as RHP. But the game is great, I can live with that, seeing as I haven't paid a cent to them, yet..

I suppose it's too damn late to re-send. If my damn orders aren't executed after receiving confirming e-mails after several sets were submitted, I'm out of these games.
EDIT: I just re-sent them anyway and got a confirming e-mail. We'll see. I am now getting a "Orders are present and await execution". As I never received an e-mail asking me to resend, I think it would be a good idea for everyone to resend their orders just in case.

I tried, and tried and tried. No confirmation.
I'll give it one more go before tonight's deadline.
Your passwords and other other game details are in your last move e-mails from the GM. The turnfiles are in your Program Files sub-directory Medieval Diplomacy II and called mmwxxsaveT007. You can also check your turn status from here.
You still have time, mine are present and waiting to be processed.

What about all the conniving and backstabbing. When do we get a chance to do that? And then there still needs to be time for all the posturing, boasting and gloating.
One - we just are not given any time and have to submit turns as normal
Two - To balance it out, they push the turnfile due date up another 24 hours.
Denmark Day of Doom betting pool:
5 gold on a spot gets you in. Winner gets the gold from each participant. If we fill all spots, that is a 1 in 7 chance at 35 gold for a cost of 5.
1-2 (turn 8-9) - Not gonna happen
3-4 (turn 10-11) - Saxony
5-6 (turn 12-13) - Bavaria
7-8 (turn 14-15) - OPEN
9-10 (turn 16-17) - Castile
11-12 (turn 18-19) - Aragon
13-14 (turn 20-21) - OPEN
15+ (turn 22+) - OPEN
Anyone else want in on it?

EDIT: If you want total, then I can spin it out to 7-8, so book me that spot, too.
Originally posted by buffalobillI would say removal from the map - no provinces left from which to draw revenue. As soon as that happens, even if they have troops left, they will be gone shortly without the ability to pay for upkeep.

So - rules are that they must not have any provinces left on the map.
