    Seamus, I believe you didn't gave me enough points in the starting post.
    The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

    Please make a quick report if you have ZERO response from your designated partner.

    Provisionally, we will accept Pannonnian replacing Ethelred barring a QUICK reminder from Ethelred that they're playing.

    Andres has also offered to replace.


    Wasp: We're looking for a full report of results from both players to make sure things are on the up and up.

    I'll try to update the 1st post with results tomorrow. Having trouble connecting with pever as my prime work hours are his prime computer hours. I'm suffering from antipodean angst!

    I've not had zero response from Martok as I did my opening move by PM, but he's been gone since...

    No response from Elite Ferret 38-ish hours after I PM'd him.

    Coming up on 72 hours in which Elite Ferret has not read or replied to my PM.
