For a moment I saw all of the replies and thought you had only spent 12 seconds on your turn!  :lol:

[arathorn]

I will make a post now - I am opening triplea for the first time in a month. :)
I hoped to post during vacation, but traveling around Europe and getting settled back in the US demanded more time than I first planned. I PMed you to let you know that it was going to be like that, so in my mind, I’ll regard all of the bumps as unofficial, as I now resume play. I understand you’re impatient to continue the game, and it was my intention to play more than I had time to during my vacation, but I have never been bumped out in a game, as I always finish them. I feel like I am in a strong position in our game, so I will of course finish it :)

You’ll see a map shortly.

Re: the bumps

I don’t really use the bump system, so you may consider all of mine as unofficial.  You did indeed warn me about your vacation, so my bumps were mostly to keep them towards the front of the line.  I (and my opponent) have actually managed to forget about a game entirely due to lack of bumping!

And in all my games, I have called only one due to a no-show, and that required about 4 months of non-activity with continual bumping.

So no pressure from me, I like to keep it fun and low-key.

No problem. I would not have forgotten about the game as I have the links to all of them saved :)
I had a feeling you didn’t mean them as official, I just wanted to make sure :)

I like my games to be relaxing and low key as well ;) It was weird to be back after a month! Had to spend a moment remembering where I was at in each game :-P

That’s how I feel for ALL of my games, because I have so many going on at once.  lol.  :-o  Probably explains my low win percentage as well.  :wink:
