28 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 1: Welcome! Looks like lots of room for the first move or two. Not too much need for careful diplomacy in turn 1 like in the 7 player version. Let's try to get moves in and "ready" quickly just to test whether the game waits the full 12 hours or else moves to the next turn the moment all 5 players are "Ready". Good luck!
28 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 1: I have tanks!
28 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 1: HAIL ROME!
28 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 1: I have a bunch of Ancient Wonders of the World and I'm not afraid to use them!!
28 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 1: Ok. Looks like when all are ready we automatically proceed. Cool.
28 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 1: Btw, do we ever get more troops?
28 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 1: Every Spring you get to add or remove armies in the number of black dot supply centers that you control. The key is to get and keep as many black dot supply centers as possible to win.
28 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 1: In Sring the creation of fleets or armies in open black dots you control is part of your orders. You cannot create a unit in a supply center already occupied by another friendly unit.
28 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 2: Just as Ra marches ever westward to the Akhet, so shall Egypt reign supreme over you mere mortals. Mwahahahahahahahaah
29 Mar 20 UTC	Spring, 2: GameMaster: Game was extended due to at least 1 member failing to enter orders and having an excused missed turn available. This has un-readied all orders.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: How do we know what turn it is? How long is a year turn? Before units build?
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: Turns are Spring and Autumn. Builds happen at the end of every Fall. At the top of the game page you can see Autumn, 2, Build. Meaning this is the build phase of turn 2. In the WWI version, the game starts in the year 1901.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: Also, general question. I moved out of dalmatia illyria. Then out of scilia into neapoli. Buts showing i no longer own dalmatia and sicilia. Huh???
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: Oh. You have to be there in a supply center (black dot) at the end of an Autumn phase to control it. After that you can leave it until someone else occupies it at the end of an Autumn phase making them the new owner. The colors did non-supply centers are purely cosmetic and appear to be based on who was there last.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: Autumn is the key phase of each year to add or lose based on new or lost supply centers.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 2: Craaap. Ok. Now i know.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 3: Sorry to hold up, but I need an Email from Egypt to make my moves ready. I'll make ready right after that.
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 3: Egypt? Egypt? Anyone? Anyone? Egypt?
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 3: Expanding a bit there aren't you Persia...
30 Mar 20 UTC	Autumn, 3: Well, trying. Greece isn't making it any easier. I am certainly not interested in tangling with the great and noble Crassus! Meanwhile, we are practicing shooting from horseback while running away.
