Isn't this technically in need of a sub again?

Not like it matters.

Is this a sub like taking over the spot our just covering it until the other player gets back?

Taking over ideally, not sure if goldfinger will consider a temporary sub.

I think. Ask him to be sure obviously, which you probably did.

Taking it over. Subs are not temporary.

For the record "sitting" is normally the term used for temporary situations IMO.

I can fill a spot

I'm new to the site but I'll sub a spot on the league if you need.

Thanks for volunteering Mage, but I'll give the spot to panda as he has a bit more experience.

Completely understandable. Maybe next league you guys can consider me.

Any subs need anymore?

I am interested in becoming a sub. I know that I have a lot of CD's BUT that was years ago before I convinced work to allow WebDip to be allowed past our filter :)

^^^ don't allow that guy in. If he convinced his work to allow webDip past the firewall then his diplomacy skills transcend everything and he is a threat to everyone in this game.

Sounds like goldfinger has a new list of subs, which is really comfortable since there may well be more dropouts.

Game 4 when?

Figure I'll just bump this thread instead of making a new one)

Game 4 in approximately 1 week.

Maybe a bit later, since there were a lot of pauses in April

Gold, I would hope game 4 doesn't start until much later, since two game 3's are still in 1901 and three or the remaining game 3's are only in 1902, and since only two of the game 2's have actually finished. It's harder to keep up with three league games active.

I'll certainly consider it, chluke. Its not a certain thing and I will take into account where the games are in each League. I very well may start some up next weekend and leave others to go on a bit longer.

My personal preference would be to hold off about another 4 weeks for the league games. It was quoted as 1-2 games (max at a time) so I do think three games at a time would be rough. Also, I know there isn't suppose to be cross game meta but we are humans ... you can't tell me it doesn't happen so with multiple games going on at a time I just think that also adds to dragging the games out longer and longer. My preference would be to wait until June 1st to start the 4th round of games (or sooner if a league finishes all three for the first games.

We're supposed to finish by end of July IIRC

I had hoped to have it over by the end of June, but delays have changed things.

As I said, I'll see where all the Leagues stand next week and make a decision
