My son, Graeme, & I have five tropical freshwater fish tanks & therefore I've called the game 'Green Puffer' as this is a common name for a fish. Green Puffer, Chelonodon nigroviridis as their scientific name, is in the Tetraodontidae family. These fish are one of the worse around as they are aggressive so all they ought to be kept on their own. The 'puffer' part on their name relates to their size when they're threatening or defending themselves. They blow-up into the size of a ballon & needless to say, they have teeth on both jaws. They're found between India to Philippines & as they are Brackish they're often found in the sea. Future maps will have a picture of them.
I'm sure you all know about provisional orders within three-days but if not, please sent me them within that time.
Sadly during games, people often NMR. I would ask that you consider how long games last and if you feel you cannot continue playing for that period of time, I would ask that you to notify me. As an example, I would think the game will last for six months.
The deadline is 7pm British Summer Time (BST), 23rd July 2003.
Rather than typing a quick overview of me you can read a small autobiog on ALB & GSB site http://mysite.freeserve.com/alb_gsb & in addition there are articles about Diplomacy & other things we're interested in & I think it's worth a look.
Knowing that you're regulars you'll know the rules are on Dip2000 site however if you don't know the proxy ruling has gone back to what it was last year.
