15L Gargantua (Allies +6) vs Shin Ji (Axis)

[Shin-Ji]

My work schedule is super flexible, and I’m almost always on.  If there’s a time that’s good for you, let me know.

[Shin-Ji]

Bump #2

[Shin-Ji]

Claiming victory via no-show.

[Gargantua]

I told you this game was delayed in writing for an indefinite period. Claim is not accepted.

[Shin-Ji]

I’ve decided to let you off the hook and not claim the victory.

But I would like some kind of indication of when you might be back.  I really do want to play this out!

[Gargantua]

Fair and honourable response.  Sunday night PsT is the best I can offer? And I will bump you to first game priority.

[Shin-Ji]

Sunday night sounds great!  It’s actually my only night I’m not working this month.  Thanks. :)

[Shin-Ji]

Oh, but sadly, your night isn’t my night.  Ah well!  Feel free to assume any reasonable scrambles and whatnot to help keep things moving along, and I’ll be back on a few hours later most likely.

[Gargantua]

T minus 10 hours to post…

The GF is all over me right now, I have tried to post 4 times, but she’s not having any of it. :( :(

I have set my alarm for early AM so I can post then.  If you send me your paypal, I’ll buy you a beer for your patience. :)

[Shin-Ji]

Actually, early AM for you is when I’m working, so I’ll be around then.  Perfect!

Have fun with your girl, man.  It’s cool.

[Gargantua]

Are you sure on no beer? looking at the map right now, going to go buy some for myself and start posting. :D

[Shin-Ji]

Playing with half your brain tied behind your back, eh?

Well, I’m finishing a 12 hour shift on 4 hours sleep, so I figure we’re even. :D

[Shin-Ji]

Not sure about your noncombat?
