I'm glad to do it. All your projects are full of good stuff so give you time to work on them is a good thing.

I am sorry to add though, my wife and I have both taken a turn for the worst, though the baby is getting better. So turns may be delayed on Saturday but hopefully we'll all be on the mend by then.

April turns sent out for Canada and USSR. have not received march for PRC.

On a non-game related note, We're all getting better at home. I managed to return to work today and I'm mostly surviving it.

And some very good news. My wife is pregnant. With TWINS! OMG I'm so flabbergasted I don't really know what to think. We've been very worried she was going to miscarry again but she had an ultrasound yesterday that confirmed two good heartbeats. We hadn't even thought of twins before yesterday.

I have to admit, having twins was the last thing I expected to happen. I'm really not sure how we're going to survive this, financially or emotionally, but I'm still thrilled for my wife to finally have a pregnancy start out well.

And my wife still won't let me pick baby names. I mean, what's wrong Xyphus? or Mahamrhai?

I am back. Now with the remaining parts of my old computer strewn across my desk. I should really smash that motherboard with a hammer for the amount of pain it caused me. Oh, I should tell you what happened. My motherboard got fried from a power surge (Curse you old motherboards without surge protection!) and I had to get a new computer. That'd be the one I'm using now. Now I have to rig my old hard drive up and transfer half a TB of data. All in all, next few days are going to be rather busy.

Anyway, I need the turn, never got it in my email apparently.

This is the time where things are going to get interesting. Although Canada has a massive lead in prestige, we might be able to catch up with them if we do things carefully. Also writing a flavour post right now. Everyone else, is China the only country with a newspaper?

June turns are out. Sorry for the delay. Much stress and some severe depression are making it hard for me to get much of anything done. Also, massive house cleaning to do this weekend so I probably won't get the next turns done until next week.

Thanks,

Aww, one of my rockets is now a thin metallic powder floating around in the atmosphere. Suppose I should write a event post.

Yes, perhaps I should have the entire research team executed for being American spies, or say it's been shot down by a Canadian infra-red laser satellite.

Ok guys, I have to apologize for the molasses in winter pace of the GMing. And since I need to get a playtest completed sometime before the next ice age, I am gonna have Haegan GM a game on the Game forum Grogheads. It is full of gamers who may play.

So if any of the current players wish to participate sing out and I will let you know when the game will begin.

Again, I apologize to all of the players who have been frustrated by the lack of turns since the game began in February.

Wasn't frustrated at all. I understand that real life gets in the way. Considering in about three weeks I probably won't be able to get any turns in (or anything that involves anything I should say) because I've got exams coming up.. ANYWAY! I'm definitely still in! So sign me up.

Sorry about this. I'll keep this game going if you'd like, just so you have some more input.

Also, I was offline for a couple of days reinstalling my machine so that hasn't helped.

Thanks,
