I officially declare my intent to figure what the hell this game is about and perhaps yank the extra spot out from underneath FL's nose. Thank you.



jDip is free, isn't it?
...and that's why I love google.

The merry-go-round of players is really making diplomatic relations hard.

Whose fault is it that the players here fail to submit their moves on time?

I accept WEB's invitation to join in as Turkey.
If that's good with Drake.
I would also like to express my wish to communicate via chat private message (you can do it on chat- it's easy).

We would just have to set up a meeting time.
Thanks,

Indy147

@ The thread

Indy is now the new sultan of Turkey.

Not me.
Not Billy.

Independent147 is the new sultan of Turkey.

While no one likes this "merry go round" of switching players, I will remind you of why this merry go round occurred:

We've had one player leave without saying why or when he would leave. Another one leave without saying when he would return, and two other players fail to make their moves on time.

Please submit your moves on time.

Moves due: Monday and Thursday at 8PM Central Standard Time.

Some of you (like Austria) have no choice anyway.
