Game Notes:

1) Stan Johnson has resigned with these orders. Art Schleinkofer will replace him, I hope. Pretty please, Art??? Let me know if you need anything. Please remind me of your phone and E-Mail address too, thanks. More standbys for this thing are always appreciated.

2) We have our first elimination (Thanks for playing, Sean!!!) and a few other players who don't look too healthy. Dave goes past the "34 center" barrier on the other end. I am trying to place the centers where you can build in caps, but I'm not entirely sure I understand the rules on this point, so if someone could clarify I'd appreciate it. I know that Naples is a special center that is a home center for either Austria (who had it before) and for Spain (who has it now), but obviously Dave can't build there quite yet.

Press:

(NETHERLANDS-BOARD): Around the world I go herah! Herah! ((Well, that's it, thanks for playing, Sean.))

(SPAIN - AUSTRIA): Perhaps I do you an injustice, but looking at the map it seemed you must be coming my way very soon, if not now.

(SPAIN - CHINA): I'm happy with the trade, let's keep the truce.

(SPAIN - OTTO): We are back where we started, I've got better things to do, perhaps you do too?

(NETHERLANDS-MEKONS): Yah! It's not in the press in this game. Go GM, it's your birthday! ((Everyone knows when MY birthday is, one month after Don Williams'.))
