PRESS

Vie: Squeezed, squeezed, squeeeeeezed... Ouch!

Lon-French Govt: Running away, eh?

Lon-StP: Well, we'll just hope that all turns out to the best.

StP-Lon: Well really, after all my support for your football team! Just take some vodka and sail away.

Con-Vie: Don't worry; the pain will be over very soon. BTW may I have my daggers back (clean please)?

Rom-StP: The hostile vibrations regarding the Swedish football team are duly noted, and I will convey to the Swedish team captains not to defeat Argentina, thus forcing the English team to win against Nigeria in order to secure promotion to the next round. Still, English cooperation with Swedes is always successful, as you can see from Sven-Göran Ericsons performance.

Rom: Als sich die Deutschen zu eine neuen Immigrantenpolitik angeschlossen haben ist die Territoriale Anschlusspolitik an die Tirolische Bauernamt ubergegeben.

Rom: I am a little disappointed at the slow speed this game is going. It can't be that difficult to submit moves EVERY turn. Let's try so speed it up a little. I suggest we all try to have final moves delivered to Ally Tuesday night by latest. OK?

ALB: To the player, the deadline gives you one week to submit orders. I equally would like to see this game played fast. No doubt some of the 'press' meant a lot to do with the World Cup, which is irrelevant now. If you cannot submit orders due to other commitments, then fine but can you let me know & I will 'press' it, allowing your country to be kept secretive & allowing other players to appreciate the reason.

To all others the deadline is Friday, I am away next weekend.

Spring 1904 deadline: 19:00 BST, 21st June 2002.
