Return of GM Andy
Greets All!
My brother came home today, Friday. He had something that allowed me to reformat my computer while in DOS. That worked and then I got the drivers for my ethernet card, so I'm happy to say, I'm back!
I will get things going again starting tomorrow hopefully, but no guarentees. I'll be e-mailing the players in my group 06 and finalizing things for group 04 then as well. If you have any questions, e-mail me, maybe I'll actually be able to respond now

OK Funkystink, whats the verdict? Are these games going to start again or do we need to find another GM?

This game already WOULD be going had people listened to what I said. I need the past turns turn reports, as well as your orders for the upcoming turn before I can get things moving agani. If my memory serves me I only received full info from AF and got a turn report from another player, not sure who though off hand.

Didn't you use the Turn Data email database? If you did just ask Al for the file.Funtastick wrote: I need the past turns turn reports, as well as your orders for the upcoming turn before I can get things moving agani.

Funty, why don't you try actually EMAILING people? I have recieved no email with this request, only seen it here on the boards. If you want people to respond, try contacting them.

Well I spoke with Andy last night in IM. Don't expect either of his games to finish. He hasn't been sending his .dat files to the Turn Database. So unless a extremely committed GM wants to spend a whole day manually inputting all the game data, it ain't happening.
Two things,
1) thanks for keeping us informed Andy . I'll be sure to avoid your games in the future.
2) there needs to be rule that all GM's must use the Database.

Im not gonna mess with WOK4 or WOK5 for that - if you want to save a copy of your files then you have like a million ways to do it.
And believe me, even if we would force the GMs to use the TDH there still would be some that wouldnt do it or refuse to. And others would just forget it or send the wrong data....

Perhaps GM Andy can call for votes to end the games. I know that the WOK4 game only had the three players left and two of them have contacted me (the VO members, of course) indicating that the game is over. I told them I need to hear from the GM or the GMC before I can record and end result for the game.
In the absence of the GM, the players may do this by all contacting the GMC with their result. There probably is not enough time to get this done before the end of this clan scoring period, but that would be nice since the games effectively ended in this clan scoring period.

I would be willing to pick up the WoK 4 game. Technically I can't because I'm still running my first game, but I can guarentee it wouldn't be any worse! If the remaining 3 players want me to and the GMC don't mind then I'll do that. Unfortunately, I can't take on the other game due to a conflict of interest with my plan to get VPs in it!

Group 6 was nowhere near completion , theres no way anyone could be declared winner.Bjorn wrote:Perhaps GM Andy can call for votes to end the games.
