Aw, man, that sucks. Not the waiting, but the leaving sketchbook part. I don't know what i'd do if i accidentally left mine behind or lost it. I've been there when friends have been searching for their sketchbooks; it's not a fun feeling.

It may be possible for me to use force with TGEW, to make her send it on soon, possibly tomorrow. That is if you think I should...I can be very mean and demanding if I want to, though I am not inclined to murder people.

I think we should start to have some deadlines in these games, so that we are able to move forward even though a person is busy. . .
A game like this just takes way too long.

Well, yes... but I thought, when it has come to this state, it makes no sense to press on it now. And not now over Christmas and such... I say we let this run to the end, but of course I urge everybody to try to make it in the three days as has been the original set-up. If somebody forgets their sketchbook or whatever, okay, that happens. But for the sake of making it at least by January, I really appeal on you all to take your part as responsibly as you can.

But TGEW, when do you think you could send your picture?

Thumbs up
You see, Legate, if I were modding this, I'd have kicked TGEW out by now.
Well, maybe not. But I would have send some darned angry PMs.

I could get it to you by tomorrow. I am currently computer-less, because my parents sent it in to get it fixed. I am using someone else's. But they don't have a scanner...

I'm really sorry...

I know that it would make no sense to start enforcing strickt rules at this stage, but for the next game I think the mod needs to be a bit strickt.

It is not fair to the people who wants to play, that they have to wait so many months for the game to end. . .

Well sure, but I think I should have done that when such a problem occured for the first time. Which was already sometime in the first round. If I was generous in giving people time already on the first round, it made no sense to me to suddenly start being too strict. But it is true that everybody managed to send the call to me at least in a week, if not in the limit.

The point was that TGEW said she has the picture ready. But I cannot let people wait forever, so unless TGEW makes contact, Monday is the latest and I will probably swap her with somebody. The problem is, though, that I won't see much help in that: people are going to be busy around Christmas, and even though Hookbill seems to be the one active he is the one to write, which is what we don't need right now. We need somebody to draw.

Not trying to steal TGEW's place, but if you do need someone to draw, I should be able to.
