GAMESTART INFORMATION
GAMESTART INFORMATION
I'm Ally Bain & as you know I'm your GM for this game. By being neutral I can able to answer any questions as long as they don't upset my status in the game.
My son & I have a number of tropical freshwater fish tanks & therefore I've called the game 'Red Rainbowfish' as this is a common name for a fish. Red Rainbowfish, Glossolepis incisus as their scientific name, is in the Melanotaeniidae family. The word 'Red' is used as their common name as the female fishes do have a red colouring. Males are a dull silver colour. Like all other Rainbowfish they are very active & swim in the mid to upper level of waters. In the wild these friendly fish come from Iriani Lake in Indonesia with their size going to 12cm. Future maps will have a picture of them.
Very soon you'll get a separate e-mail from me in which I'll state your country. Within a handful of days you must submit this season's orders. The reason being that if I don't receive orders from one or more players, the game will be delayed until they have been replaced.
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 up to 6 months however as this is a Gunboat game & if I've got a full set of orders, before the Deadline, I can adjudicate which means the game will last less than 6 months.
The Deadline is 5pm (GMT), 23rd January 2006.
Regarding myself, about three years ago I wrote an auto-biog & within it, I wrote about my son (Graeme), the lobotomy I had, my career & a number of other things, etc. Sadly I haven't updated it for quite a while so what I'll do in this e-mail is mention the slight changes & hopefully anyone who reads the, slightly out-of-date auto-biog (http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/alb_gsb/authors/ally.htm), knows my background. :-)
June 2005 I moved in with Sally, my fiancée, & we live near Sudbury, Suffolk. To those unaware of Britain, Sudbury is about 20 miles north-west of Colchester, Essex. Colchester is the oldest town in Britain & to those who don't know where that town is, it's about 50 miles north-east of London. If you don't know where London is, ..... no comment. :-)
Regarding our home, we managed to get Planning Permission for the extension & garage which now leads us on to getting Buildings Regulations. Once that is done, the joy of building them comes into play. :-/
Diplomacy 2000 houserules, http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk/dip2000/diprules/diprules.htm, apply except the following:
1. End Game Proposals (EGP) aren't allowed until after A05. After A05, any EGP must be a fair reflection on the state of the board when the EGP is presented. If it isn't, I'll not display it. When EGP are shown, players must submit together with their orders, etc, their vote. Failure to vote equals 'yes' to the EGP.
2. No press, shown in the adjudication, is allowed expect me.
