Great work so far, gentlemen. Since this turn will have no war (unless Blair declares it against another Russian state), we can speed things up if I have all answers in before our Saturday night deadline.

Just to clarify something: are all orders, including "secret" orders public? What determines whether something should be PM-only?

Well, I think if you're planning to assassinate somebody or provoke an uprising, then you don't announce this in game thread. Just like Clarence ordered trans-siberian railroad to be sabotaged last time.

Your discretion. If you don't mind people knowing about it, then make it public. If you don't want people to know (assassinations, invasion plans, so on), then PM's are the way to go.

The ideal, though, is to keep the game thread active like we have seen so far, so there should be balance on what you order and say in public and what you do via PM.

It's incredible how quickly we entered a serious crisis phase. The first BoP's beginnings were... more peaceful Wink

Probably best to give you a heads up, expect very little activity from me Thursday-Saturday, maybe even Sunday-ish. I'll check in at least once a day, but not to the insane extent I've been active the last days Tongue

I propose we should all agree to cease making new posts and sending new PMs for now.

I think I replied to questions and NPC messages, let me know if I missed anything.

I have everything I need from 10 players, China and Japan outstanding. If we get that by tomorrow, Turn 2 is up on Saturday. If not, we go with the current deadline and Turn 2 is up on Sunday. A bit of advice, it is most helpful to me when you put a title on the messages, thanks to those who have been doing it. Also, please try to compact your orders in one or two PM's, more than that and it gets confusing!

You may resume playing.

True, but sometimes you just need to react unoficially to something. Other than that, I'll try to be as constrained as possible.
